Richard Gere had some thoughts reminiscing about his hit 1990 film “Pretty Woman.”
While appearing over the weekend at a masterclass during the 81st Venice Film Festival, Gere joke that he and costar Julia Roberts had “no chemistry” in a scene where his character, wealthy businessman Edward, undresses Robert’s character, Vivian.
“This actor and this actress obviously had no chemistry between them,” Gere said. “I haven’t seen that in a long time. That’s a sexy scene.”
Gere said he thought his role in the hit romantic comedy was “criminally underwritten.”
“It was basically a suit and a good haircut,” he said.
Gere said he didn’t know how successful the film would become.
“This is a movie, a very small movie with a wonderful director named Garry Marshall,” Gere explained. “But we were having fun making this little tiny movie. We didn’t know if anyone would ever see this little, tiny movie. No one would ever pay attention to this little, tiny movie.”
