I've had a veiled interest in
Nights in Rodanthe, which reunites
Unfaithful co-stars Diane Lane (yay) and Richard Gere (ugh), ever since I predicted Lane in
The Film Experience's Best Actress contest. That said, I clearly haven't been paying
that much attention, because, after spotting the film's title on IMDb's homepage (although they replace "in" with "at"), I discover that it has a
trailer and is released in just about a month across the pond (the UK has to wait until November, tragically). It looks completely conventional and the trailer gives away pretty much everything that's going to happen (seriously. Can you not even
try and keep any mystery?), but it also has VIOLA DAVIS (as the no-nonsense best friend no less) and she's always reason enough to see a film. (It also has James Franco,
Ann Veal (OMG) and the egg-headed presence of Christopher Meloni.)
But what the title of this post refers to is the fact that in almost every picture we have so far, Diane and Richard won't stop STARING at each other. Seriously.
Staring:
Staring:
They're even at it in the poster:
Diane lets the side down here, though:
My theory is it's because the cameraman is doing an impression of Richard
dancing. At least he can laugh about it, eh?
