Robert Pattinson Cannes Photo

25 May 2012 3:06 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »

CosmopolisRobert Pattinson, David Cronenberg, Sarah Gadon, Paul Giamatti, and Emily Hampshire posed for photographers at the Cannes Film Festival 2012, where Cosmopolis is in the running for the Palme d’Or. The above Robert Pattinson photo was posted at Just Jared, which has several other images from the Cosmopolis photo call. Cronenberg’s chaotic comedy-drama was screened today at Cannes. Reviews were mixed for Cosmopolis, which some found too talky, but they were highly positive for Robert Pattinson, 26, best known until now for his lovestruck vampire Edward Cullen in the Twilight movies. [Check out: Cosmopolis Mixed Reviews; Robert Pattinson 'Flawless'.] According to Just Jared, when Pattinson was asked a Twilight-related question, Cronenberg interfered, telling the journalist that Robert Pattinson is a “real person with a history and a past. The history and the past is not Twilight. It is Cosmopolis.” In addition to Robert Pattinson as the young multibillionaire New Yorker Eric Packer, the Cosmopolis cast includes the aforementioned Sarah Gadon, »

Robert Pattinson/David Cronenberg Maps To The Stars?

24 May 2012 5:41 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »

Maps to the Stars for Robert Pattinson / David Cronenberg? Above, Pattinson in Cronenberg’s Cosmopolis (Paul Giamatti in background) Robert Pattinson hates Twilight, according to those who have taken seriously his (jokingly) dismissive take on the movie series that has made him world famous. Anyhow, whatever his feelings in regard to The Twilight Saga, Pattinson surely doesn’t hate David Cronenberg. Hence, the Cosmopolis star and director are to work together on another movie project. That appears to be Maps to the Stars. During an interview for Metro, Robert Pattinson said that last week his agent asked if he’d like to appear in Cronenberg’s next film project. "I said yes without thinking!" Pattinson laughingly remarked. Later on, Pattinson explained that he doesn’t know "when exactly we’re going to shoot. But it’ll be David’s first movie shot on American soil. In Los Angeles, to be exact. »

Cosmopolis Review: Robert Pattinson Brave, David Cronenberg Back

19 May 2012 4:58 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »

Cosmopolis movie: Robert Pattinson, Sarah Gadon Mathieu Carratier has written a highly positive Cosmopolis film review for Premiere magazine, praising the movie itself, director-writer David Cronenberg, and star Robert Pattinson. Cosmopolis is in competition for the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival. It’ll be screened on May 25. Carratier begins his Cosmopolis commentary by remarking that whether or not he appreciates David Cronenberg’s recent work — one assumes he means more accessible fare such as the Viggo Mortensen trilogy: A History of Violence, Eastern Promises, and A Dangerous Method — he was "seriously missing" the Cronenberg of (no-holds-barred) movies such as Crash and Videodrome. But not to worry. "Pop open the champagne," exults Carratier, "because he’s back in every Cosmopolis shot." Cronenberg himself wrote the Cosmopolis screenplay — reportedly in six days, and his first for a feature film since eXistenZ (1999). The plot is based on Don DeLillo’s »

Cosmopolis Review: Robert Pattinson Impeccable/Loses Control

18 May 2012 1:40 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »

Cosmopolis: Robert Pattinson directed by David Cronenberg An early Cosmopolis review has come out via Studio Ciné Live‘s Fabrice Leclerc. Directed by the iconoclastic David Cronenberg, who adapted Don DeLillo’s novel, and starring Robert Pattinson, Cosmopolis is definitely one of the most eagerly anticipated films at the Cannes Film Festival 2012. [Check out the awesome Cosmopolis trailer.] The headline of Leclerc’s brief, three-star (out of five) Cosmopolis review reads: "A Cronenberg as brilliant as he is taut." Leclerc then begins his review by explaining that Cronenberg and DeLillo are "manufacturers of fantastic, unhealthy, and at times somber environments, of the science of language, and of totally chaotic characters. And of controversy as well." Referring to Cosmopolis as a "ghostly and hypnotic" tale, Leclerc adds that Cronenberg had adapted to the letter DeLillo’s "ultrarich prose, filming with incredible inventiveness this stifling and disturbing airtight environment." As for Robert Pattinson, Leclerc says he’s "impeccable" until Cosmopolis‘ last segment, »

Robert Pattinson/Cosmopolis Us Release Date?

16 May 2012 4:22 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »

Robert Pattinson haircut, Cosmopolis The Robert Pattinson movie Cosmopolis may have an August release date in the United States, according to online rumors. That would be a curious choice for Canadian-based distributor Entertainment One (eOne), as David Cronenberg films have "fall release" written all over them. That’s certainly how Us distributors have perceived Cronenberg’s last three films, all of which were awards-season contenders: starring Michael Fassbender, Keira Knightley, and Viggo Mortensen, A Dangerous Method opened in the Us in November 2011. (In mid-January 2012 in Canada.) Starring Best Actor Oscar nominee Mortensen and Naomi Watts, Eastern Promises opened in mid-September 2007. And Mortensen / Maria Bello’s A History of Violence came out on Sept. 30, 2005. Cosmopolis, which is in competition for the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival, will open on May 23 in France, June 8 in Canada, and June 15 in the UK. Additionally, Cosmopolis already has a DVD/Blu-ray release »

Robert Pattinson Eyes: Mission: Blacklist Poster

12 May 2012 3:05 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »

He’s got Robert Pattinson’s eyes: Mission: Blacklist poster Robert Pattinson was officially cast in Mission: Blacklist, as American military interrogator Eric Maddox, about ten days or so ago. Producing company Embankment Films isn’t wasting any time. The sales poster for Mission: Blacklist, which will be peddled at the Cannes Film Festival, has been making the rounds online for several days. "In a World of Lies Only One Man Could See the Truth." That man was apparently Pattinson’s Maddox, who claimed to have eschewed torture while trying to figure out the whereabouts of fallen Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. The brief Mission: Blacklist plot synopsis reads as follows: Unlike other Interrogators fresh out of training, Eric Maddox (Robert Pattinson) has a brilliant and beautiful mind. He has a unique ability to decipher highly complex patterns from seemingly random events. His mission is to trap the world’s most wanted man, »

Robert Pattinson/Bel Ami Movie: International Box Office

8 May 2012 4:25 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »

Robert Pattinson photo: Bel Ami Bel Ami Film Box Office Pt.1 In the United Kingdom, the home country of Robert Pattinson and much of the Bel Ami cast and behind-the-scenes talent, Pattinson’s movie scored $1.14m. It’s no. 50 on the UK box-office chart. Relatively speaking, Bel Ami was a more modest performer in the UK, especially compared to Hollywood movies, e.g., War Horse grossed $29.57m, the Fox-distributed The Iron Lady $15.71m, Mirror Mirror $10.78m, and The Phantom Menace $8.23m as per Box Office Mojo. A handful of independent releases fared much better as well, particularly the aforementioned Daniel Radcliffe movie The Woman in Black, which took in a whopping $34.55m. Having said that, one must take into account that Bel Ami, unlike the vast majority of the more successful movies at the UK box office, has an “adult” theme. In fact, the Robert Pattinson film earned a “15″ certificate »

Cosmopolis Clip: Robert Pattinson, Dead Rats

4 May 2012 7:03 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »

In this Cosmopolis clip, Robert Pattinson (photo) needs to get inflamed (and to get a haircut). Sarah Gadon doesn’t look all that willing to inflame him (or to cut his hair), but a couple of guys holding dead rats while proclaiming "A specter is haunting the world!" just might be willing to do both. (Please scroll down to watch the Cosmopolis clip.) I haven’t read Don DeLillo’s novel, so I’m not sure exactly what on Earth is happening in the clip, but it just might be something out of Videodrome. Or perhaps The Fly. It’s interesting how both the dialogue and particularly Sarah Gadon’s performance come across as quite stylized. Robert Pattinson’s lines are stylized as well, but his performance is more naturalistic. In fact, Pattinson’s low-key delivery is hilarious. Directed and co-written by David Cronenberg, Cosmopolis will premiere in the Official »

35 Limited Releases To See This Summer

3 May 2012 9:43 AM, PDT | The Film Stage | See recent The Film Stage news »

The main reason we enjoy doing what we do here on Tfs is to share our love for great independent films that may not be on your radar. It’s why we focus our efforts on film festivals and it brings no greater joy to recommend these films once they come out in theaters. While other summer countdowns focus on all the films you’ve been hearing about non-stop for the last year, we’ve got a comprehensive list of the worthwhile independent, limited release features to take note of.

While a few, namely one from Focus Features and another from The Weinstein Company are set to go wide initially, they won’t be as hitting as many multiplexes as The Dark Knight Rises or The Avengers, therefore making for a worthy mention. Check out the list below, which also includes what you may want to skip over blockbuster-wise at the theaters that same weekend, »

The 2012 Seattle Film Festival Line-Up is the Best I've Seen in Years

27 April 2012 12:07 PM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

I can't remember a time I went to the Seattle International Film Festival (Siff) press launch and looked over the list of films and saw so many I was interested in seeing. The claim to fame for over the years is to call it the largest and most-highly attended festival in the United States. This is a fact I've often taken issue with as I don't equate quantity with quality. Granted, there has been a large number of quality features to play the fest over the years, including Golden Space Needle (Best Film) winners such as Kiss of the Spider Woman (1985), My Life as a Dog (1987), Trainspotting (1996), Run Lola Run (1999), Whale Rider (2003) and even recent Best Director winner, Michel Hazanavicius's Oss 117: Nest of Spies in 2006. That said, looking over this year's crop of films I see a lot of films I will be doing my absolute best to see. »
