Jacob Elordi and Richard Gere star as the same character at different ages in the new trailer for the upcoming movie Oh, Canada! The new film is an adaptation of Russell Banks‘ novel of the same name and reunites Richard with director Paul Schrader for the first time since 1980′s American Gigolo. Keep reading to find out more… Here’s a synopsis: Aging filmmaker Leonard Fife (Gere), still fiery despite his battle with illness, wants to tell his life story, unfiltered, before it’s too late. As the director of acclaimed documentary exposés, he has much to be proud of, but his Vietnam War draft-dodging and his past relationships harbor thorny truths. Leonard sits for an extended interview with his former student Malcolm (Michael Imperioli), relating candid stories about his younger self (Elordi) in the tumultuous 1960s and beyond. At Leonard’s insistence, his wife and indispensable artistic partner, Emma (Uma Thurman), bears witness to it all. His successes are held up against his failings and, as the man is cleansed of the myth, Leonard must confront what is left. Oh, Canada is set to open in select theaters in New York on December 6th and in Los Angeles on December 13th.
