You could make a mathematical problem out of Richard Gere's career, add up all of his movies that were out of the ball park hits and then subtract the number of films that weren't very well received and the answer would equal: an enduring Hollywood star. Whether he's carrying Debra Winger out of the factory in An Officer and a Gentleman or climbing up the fire escape to kiss Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman, he makes women's hearts race. We'd like to feature those memorable moments and more in Destination Hollywood's Tribute to Richard Gere.
Richard Gere is producing and starring in the remake of a Japanese movie Hachiko, A Dog's Story. This movie is going to make us all cry. It's the true story of an Akita that waits at the train station every day for ten years after his master dies. This a picture of the statue of the real Hachiko in Japan.
Ever since we wrote about this upcoming dog movie we've been worried. Worried if we could handle watching it and also worried about how you write a script about a dog standing in front of a train station for ten years. We dug up this YouTube video from the original Japanese movie. Excuse us while we wipe the tears off our computer keyboard. Now we're worried that everyone in America is going to want an Akita dog.
