Good morning, happy Monday, and most importantly a very happy 71st birthday to Richard Gere today -- we here at MNPP count ourselves among the world's biggest Gere-stans; don't believe us? Check the archives. That said I've never shared these scenes from Gere's 1978 flick Bloodbrothers -- mostly because I was hoping I'd get my hands on a better copy. That day hasn't come, so I'm just going to town on what I've got, and if the day comes when what I've got is better quality I will go to town on that as well. Richard Gere deserves to be gone to town on as many times as possible.
Anybody seen this flick? Even though I just talked a good game I'll admit I've never actually watched this movie start to finish -- like I said, waiting for a decent copy. Anyway it was directed by Robert Mulligan, director of To Kill a Mockingbird, it co-stars Tony Lo Bianco of The Honeymoon Killers fame (who can also be caught in these gifs tighty-whitying it up as Gere's father)...

I saw it in the theatre when it came out originally. It was fine and both Gere and Marilu Henner did good work in it but it wasn't so terrific that I ever felt the desire to revisit it. Gere was in his prime young period though I prefer his salt and pepper years frankly.
It's on my list b/c I really liked the very gritty book by Richard Price. Gere was the one of the most hot of the hot pieces of late 70s/early 80s cinema.
