Golden Globe Award-winning actor Richard Gere and Diane Kruger star in this captivating English-remake of the celebrated film by the original Director. Daniel Bloch (Gere) is shocked to discover a startling secret from his past and is immediately consumed by the extraordinary twists of a new life he never could have imagined. With each new encounter, Daniel uncovers a deeper layer of this fascinating mystery until he arrives at a crossroad in his own life.

Critics Consensus

Despite Richard Gere's compelling turn as a grieving man, this melodrama may leave viewers longing for something more rewarding, like the filmmaker's original Israeli version.

Manipulative. Clever, but manipulative.

3/4

Still, this is a welcome and unusual movie, and Gere gives a compelling performance.

Though the action has been moved to Canada, [Savi] Gabizon’s twisty story of grief and discovery remains largely the same. So it’s odd that the biggest problem with Longing is that it feels like its tone got lost in translation.

1/5

The inconsistency of the situations is only enhanced by the alienation of the dialogue. [Full review in Spanish]

No character functions like a human being. None of them make decisions or tell you things, and the dialogue is so sterile.

This drama about love, loss, and self-discovery distills the complexity of grief.
