Richard Gere and Diane Lane have been reunited for love story Nights In Rodanthe.

The pair have worked together in the past on movies like Unfaithful in 2002.

"You know, it might be a certain trend in the universe right now, on this planet, maybe to look a little deeper into human emotions and not so many of these movies which are based on video games and these kind of things" - Richard Gere

Nights In Rodanthe is set in a small inn in North Carolina where guest Paul Flanner falls in love with innkeeper Adrienne Willis.

It's based on the book by American author Nicholas Sparks, who's had three other books - The Notebook, Message in a Bottle and A Walk To Remember - turned into films.

Gere said: "You know, it might be a certain trend in the universe right now, on this planet, maybe to look a little deeper into human emotions and not so many of these movies which are based on video games and these kind of things."

He added: "And there is a place for that as well but I think clearly, the tradition of movie making is always about the human heart. And that's the love we were working on when we made this movie."
