Just wondering if someone was committed enough to make such a movie

Aged naturally... to play both older and younger... within a single film...

Given how most films only take a few months to film at most, I don't think natural aging will have enough impact on a character to have a distinct "younger and older". If the film took years to make, then parts would seem really low quality compared to other parts. If the character was only a few weeks older, you wouldn't notice the difference between the accurate age and the reshoots.

Got any sources for that claim? I was always under more of an impression that movies took at least a year and a half to make, if not 2-3 for a longer movie.

He's talking about principal shooting, you about production of the whole film.
