Richard Gere is 76 years old and has just accepted a role that few actors of his generation would dare to take. In ‘Asymmetry’, he plays a veteran writer who falls in love with his young editorial assistant, played by 28-year-old Diana Silvers.
It is no ordinary romance. The official synopsis describes it as an ‘unconventional and unlikely’ love story between two people living completely different stages of life. And that is the bet: to show that the heart knows neither calendars nor social conventions.
What is most moving is the courage to tell this story without asking permission. The film promises to challenge our ideas about love and power, those invisible rules we tend to accept without question. Sometimes the most honest love is the one that least resembles what we expected 💫
