The movie just got screened for the press, did you get any reactions yet?
I did and so far I only got compliments for David Cronenberg on the movie. A lot of people were thrilled to finally discover the movie. I read an article in a daily newspaper that David will be the winner of the ceremony by K.O. It’s a phrase that’s delightful to hear even if I saw other movies at Cannes that are really good and on a high level. We know that Cosmopolis is a big movie that is extremely contemporary and modern. I told you when we saw each other a few days ago, I recommend everyone to go see it because it has not only a great director and a strong subject but it’s also Robert Pattinson and the other actors that give everything they’ve got, and who act on an amazing level.
A little word about Robert Pattinson, he’s attracting all the attention today and he took a lot of risks by working with David Cronenberg. Do you think he succeeded on his big break since Twilight and that he became a credible actor when it comes to cinema?
It’s obvious that he’s a big start when you see the crowds he draws in on the croisette. He’s a huge star but he’s incredibly serious, an extraordinary movie fanatic and he’s incredibly intelligent compared to the image the media tried to paint him with for a few yers now. He’s such a wonderful boy, he’s a movie star in the popular cinema for sure but he belongs in the auteur cinema too, in such a natural way. He’s an amazing guy! He has looks that help him become an actor but he uses them, put them on a different level. It’s all about his spirit, his heart and the emotions he has that talk and express themselves in this movie. He doesn’t show off/uses his looks. He’s really, really good.
Here are some great pics of Robert Pattinson in Cannes taken by Caitlin Cronenberg.

Here’s a video review by Les in Rocks (in French) about Cosmopolis. We’ll add the translation as soon as we get it.
Le film est vraiment passionnant pendant la première heure quand il garde comme ça cette esprit totalement abstrait.
L’autre fait seyant du film, c’est Robert Pattinson.
David joue d’une façon très maligne avec le passé de cinéma de ses acteurs. Il joue vraiment avec la personnalité de Juliette Binoche, il joue avec le passé vampirique de Robert Pattinson.
Pour moi c’est d’abord un film de Robert Pattinson.
Ce qui est drôle, c’est qu’il ne joue plus un vampire mais un humain et il est un vampire beaucoup plus inquiétant que dans Twilight. Où l’idée était d’humanisé la figure des vampire.
C’est l’un des grands films formaliste de la compétition avec ”Holy Motors”.
On sent de la lumière chez Cronenberg, du cadre, de la matière même, enfin tout ce qui est dans cette limousine, on a envie de le toucher comme souvent dans les films de Cronenberg. Et il y a vraiment un rapport avec la texture des choses.
Y’a un truc assez génial, c’est qu’à la fin du film de Cronenberg, on demande que font les limousines la nuit quand on ne les conduit pas, et finalement c’est Leo Carax qui a donné la réponse dans son propre film montrant le garage des limousines.
Translation :
The first thing which surprise in” Cosmopolis”, it’s its density. It’s a compact film, a very complex, messy sort of big piece to swallow that make us appreciate it more only a few hours following the screening.
Knowing that David Cronenberg is one of the 5 biggest filmmakers in the world, we can say that ” Cosmopolis” is not one of his greatest films, but, in contrast to Cannes, is the one of 4 or 5 great films that dominates the entire competition.
The other important point of the film, it’s Robert Pattinson.
David plays with the cinema’s past of his actors in aa very clever way. He really plays with the personality of Juliette Binoche and he plays with the vampire past of Robert Pattinson.
For me it is primarily a film of Robert Pattinson.
The funny thing is that he no longer plays a vampire but a human and in this movie he’s a far more disturbing vampire than in Twilight. Where the idea was humanized figure of the vampire.
We feel the light in Cronenberg, the surroundings are important, and everything that is in the limo, you want to touch it as often as possible in Cronenberg’s films. And there’s really a connection with the texture of things.
There’s a pretty awesome scene at the end of Cronenberg’s film, we question ourselves where the limousines are at night when you do not drive, and ultimately it is Leo Carax who gave the answer in his own film showing the garage for limousines.
