Richard Gere plays the role of a husband who is cheated

Richard Gere has always been considered to be a man who can easily get women in bed. This image helped him to build an extremely successful career in the 1980s and he became one of the last true sex symbols. At least until the film Unfaithful where he played the role of a man who was cheated by his wife and turned into a boring husband with glasses, and his wife, Diane Lane, was seduced by a 17-year old lad, Olivier Martinez. The world was turned upside down. It was a scandal beyond comparison and a shock for all his fans. In the movie, Gere plays a man whose wife is seduced to dance the last tango in Paris with an unimportant young man, a fatally attractive stud, who made an indecent proposal to her and gave her nine and a half weeks of wild and passionate nights.

World turned upside down

The 1980s were the era of masculine movies, where Michael Douglas cheated on his wife, Anne Archer, with wild Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction. The 1990s were the time of a mid-life crisis where Robert Redford had to pay a million dollars to have sexual intercourse with Demi Moore in Indecent Proposal. The new millennium is the time of self-confident women, the time of brave Diane Lane who dared to cheat on Richard Gere, who lost his dignity and was turned from a gigolo to a cuckold, and his fans were signalled that considerably younger Olivier Martinez was much hotter.

Fatal attraction from a woman’s point of view

Unfaithful, an effective mixture of Last Tango in Paris, Nine 1/2 Weeks, Indecent Proposal, Fatal Attraction and the French film La Femme Infidele made by Claude Chabrol in 1969, is therefore a movie about a very courageous woman who takes a lover, and who does not care about consequences. She is only interested in steamy sexual encounters and the moments of passion with her young lover. In other words, Fatal Attraction from a woman’s point of view, where roles are slightly changed, while consequences and the moral to the story are completely the same.
