Exclusive: Savi Gabizon on Working with Richard Gere to Remake His Film Longing
Longing is a very different kind of film, one which operates at a different emotional pitch than most Hollywood dramas. It’s a very faithful remake of filmmaker Savi Gabizon‘s Israeli original of the same name from 2017; he brings it to a North American context with help from Richard Gere and Israeli-American genius Oren Moverman (who directed Gere in one of his best films, Time Out of Mind). The new film also stars Diane Kruger and will release in select theaters on June 7, 2024 & VOD on June 28.
