   > While she was certainly old enough in 1977 to be playing the role of a   
   mother of an adult son, I found out that her costar in "Sinbad" - Patrick   
   Wayne, son of John - was only six years younger. In other words, he was almost   
   40. Somehow, I would have    
   expected the filmmakers to pick someone younger than that for Sinbad!

   To clarify - I didn't mean she played Sinbad's mother, of course.   
      
   British actor Kurt Christian, who played Rafi, the witch's son, is 17 years   
   younger than Whiting - a realistic gap, since the story takes place centuries   
   ago.    
      
   But one could still argue that Wayne was too old.
