"Richard Gere has expressed hopes that he will get an Academy Award nomination for Arbitrage. Gere has earned critical praise for his portrayal of a hedge fund manager whose life is thrown into chaos due to his financial impropriety.  The actor has already been nominated for a Golden Globe for Arbitrage, but admitted to CNN that he is most hoping for an Oscar nod. &amp;quot;It would feel great, of course. Everyone wants to feel appreciated,&amp;quot; Gere explained. He went on to say: &amp;quot;I like the movie, and I think Nick Jarecki, who wrote and directed it, did a really great job. I&amp;#039;m happy with my performance in it.  &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t think any actor is ever totally delighted with what they do, but you get easier on it later.&amp;quot; Gere added that he tries to set very few goals for himself at this point in his career.   &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve never wanted for something and then was able to make it happen. Life doesn&amp;#039;t really work like that,&amp;quot; he revealed. &amp;quot;I think the process of getting older is just to let it happen.  &amp;quot;While you&amp;#039;re focused on trying to make something happen, you&amp;#039;re missing out on so many other things around you. So I think in my own case the process of maturing is to just be more open - to feel the whole thing.&amp;quot; Gere previously won a Golden Globe for his portrayal of Billy Flynn in the 2002 film Chicago. Arbitrage was released in the US in September. Watch a trailer for the film below:      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
