Anyone who doesn't expect Robert Pattinson to have much of a career beyond the Twilight franchise, or at least a quality one, may be proven wrong by his potential casting in Fox 2000's adaptation of Water for Elephants. According to Variety, the actor is...

Happy Birthday, Robert Pattinson!

Wish the 'Twilight' star a happy b-day ... Today is a day for true celebration, a day when women the world over, from the ages of 10 to 55 (or, heck, even 90), are united by one common urge: to raise their voices and proclaim in unison, 'Happy birthday,...

Pattinson Confirms Fourth 'Twilight' Film

This is a beautiful movie! Robert Pattinson did a remarkable job portraying Dali\'s mannerisms - I was reminded so much of the Dali that I had seen on TV during my growing up years. He nailed Dali\'... s narcissism and decision to choose becoming a celebrity over artistic integrity and human relationships. Javier Beltran played Federico Garcia Lorca wonderfully! I have my fingers crossed that we will get to see much more of him in English speaking movies. After watching this film, I have been moved to learn all that I can about Lorca, Dali, and Bunuel and the time in history that they lived. Little Ashes goes down as one of my all-time favorites!

I clicked 5 stars instead of 1 star, so I actually upgraded a movie that should be giving 1 star or less!

This movie started as an interesting time piece, but was otherwise horribly flawed. (I normally give good reviews btw.) Dali's mother died of breast cancer, his father then married his mothers sister... . Dali met and revered Pablo Picaso. Dali by all reports avoided touch, including sex, but loved to watch. His father hated his wife, he joined and was cast out of the surrealist movement. Cher recounted Dali's clothing optional semi-orgy style parties. And the list goes on. The film ignores nearly all of these details, at best mentioning them or showing them in as brief a fashion as is possible. It instead chooses to make Dali one dimensional. It focuses on showcasing his purported love affair with poet Lorca. I care about Dali the painter, the eccentric, the writer, the sculptor, the son, the husband, the brilliant but rebellious student, the promoter, the genius etc at least as much as Dali the (supposed) gay man. Yet that is nearly the entire focus of this movie. The movie gives limited insight into who Dali truely was, and instead shows a gay relationship that according to evidence might not have been. Dali could have been a mechanic or sandwich maker and it would have made no difference. Do ********* this movie unless you want to see one gay seen after another. Full Review

I was expecting this film to be in poor taste with raunchy sex scenes given all of the reviews I had read. I actually ended up really enjoying it! The first twenty minutes were a little cheesy thoug... h, especially Dali. However, the rest of the movie was a really great love story with a bitter-sweet ending. I wonder if it got bad reviews because people were expecting it to be more of a biography of Salvador Dali. It was obvious to me that it was never intended to be much more than a love story. I would definitely watch it again and recommend it to others. Full Review
