Richard Gere

Although Paul Schrader’s films aren’t necessarily avant-garde or experimental, the writer and director makes the kinds of movies talked about more among film buffs than mass audiences. But in an exclusive interview with The Associated Press, Jacob Elordi rejects the notion that Schrader’s movies aren’t accessible to a wide audience. Elordi also discussed playing a younger version of Richard Gere’s character in “Oh, Canada,” Schrader’s latest film in theaters now.
