Thinking of Rob   It's all about Robert Pattinson

Here is the translation of an interview Robert Pattinson did with Népszava Online. The translation was done by yoyokate at pattinsonlife. The interview seems genuine to me...  but then again it’s always hard to tell.

Note from the translator:

The interview is probably real, the interviewer is a famous hungarian reporter living in the US, same woman who did that interview with him posted below. I think the end of this interview is probably from that meeting ( the CD thing).

Hundreds of twenty-somethings are lurking around the Opera, on the Pollack Mihály Square and around the American Embassy, hoping they can get a smile, a picture, an autograph and a bit more in Hungarian than „köszönöm, hogy csendben vagytok” (Thanks, for being quiet.) The messy-haired, shy, tight-lipped lad, who was sleeping at his agent’s two years ago, was happy if they let him on screen, but never wanted the hysteria that surrounds him now.

Robert Pattinson (for those living under a rock: Twilight, New Moon) is conquering Uma Thurman, Kristin Scott Thomas and Christina Ricci on the streets of Budapest, used for scenes of Paris, in the film adaptation of Maupassant’s novel, Bel Ami. Judging by the pictures he looks just as good with a serious face, wearing tailcoats and top hats as he is giggling, pulling his messy hair, wearing a misbuttoned shirt and jeans that slipped to his hips –  the way he looked during our meeting in New York, a few days before he left for Budapest.

All my colleagues in Budapest are waiting for you to give an interview, but I know you already and know that you won’t give interviews while you are working. What are your plans for your days off in Budapest?

I’ve never been to Eastern Europe before and I have always wanted to go. You can imagine how curious I am. I’ve heard from my friends that Budapest is a beautiful city. People I know who’ve been to your country, they all love it but sadly I won’t have much free time. And I won’t have much of a chance to be an anonymous tourist.

The musical scene in Hungary is bustling though and you like to make music.

The guys I grew up with all became musicians and they are really good, I usually do something with them.

What kind of instruments do you play?

I’m fighting with the violin now, not with a teacher, only by myself, but not everyone around me is happy about it. And I’m composing. It’s interesting; it all depends on the actual character I’m playing. The guy I play in my new movie, Remember Me is a guy with deep feeling. When I was shooting that movie, I composed lots of new songs. The guy in Bel Ami though is absolutely shallow, who is not touched by anything in the world, especially not by art and since I’m in his skin now, I have a total mental block.
