From Moviefone:
National averages suggest that most Americans watch three movies a year in theaters. Unfortunately, that means a lot of great films never end up getting seen. In 2012, there were plenty of quality releases that missed out on the big crowds. If you’re wondering what, exactly, you should’ve seen this year but didn’t, we’re here to fill you in.
The following is a list of movies that, for whatever reason, just didn’t get the attention or large-scale critical appreciation they deserved. However, each are very much worth your time.
Cosmopolis (David Cronenberg)
There seemed to be a little juice behind Canadian director David Cronenberg’s latest effort, a wonderfully meandering adaptation of Dom DeLillo’s novel of the same name that charts a single, seemingly endless limousine ride. For one, the film premiered at Cannes, to mostly ecstatic audiences (full disclosure: I was in one of them), and for another, Cronenberg loaded his bizarre contraption with a secret weapon: Robert Pattinson. As a disaffected billionaire, Pattinson showed unheard of gravitas and wit, both of which were sorely missing during his five-movie tenure as sparkly vampire Edward in the “Twilight” movies. But not even his handsome or borderline hieroglyphic face, could get people to come out to “Cosmopolis.” Granted, the movie is pretty weird. But it’s also tremendously rewarding — it works its hooks into you and, months after seeing it, I still can’t stop thinking about it
From Hollyscoop:
Despite the fact that Kristen Stewart’s character in Twilight is supposed to be totally clumsy with two left feet, Breaking Dawn Part 1 & 2 choreographer Paul Becker says that’s far from the truth.
At first it was actually Rob [Pattinson] that was stepping on Kristen’s toes and not the other way around”
“In the movie she’s supposed to be a bad dancer, but Kristen took charge and let Rob know who is boss…they were quick learners”

A TONBRIDGE student has been bitten by the fame bug after winning a competition to interview screen vampire Robert Pattinson live on national radio.
Amber Pursey, of Hillview School for Girls, won the right to meet the Hollywood heartthrob by making a minute-long video based on the Twilight Saga movie series which made him a star.
Her recreation of the famous baseball scene was chosen as one of five winners by judges, including Radio One DJ Nick Grimshaw, earning the Ticehurst resident the chance to interview Pattinson at the London premiere of Breaking Dawn Part Two – the final in the series.
The next day, Amber was at BBC Broadcasting House to be interviewed by Grimshaw before going to meet Pattinson at a plush hotel.
“He’s an actor and I really want to act when I’m older so it was kind of cool to meet him,” she said. “I love the Twilight films and I love him, but I wouldn’t say I’m a massive fan.
“But he’s so famous. I was going red, I was so nervous when we were sitting in the room waiting. He came in and it was OK, he was really nice and calm, so I calmed down. He was so normal. It was quite cool. He was exactly how you see him.”
Amber’s next challenge was to ask the heartthrob a question live on Radio One.
“I asked him what his top two tips would be for someone wanting to become an actor,” she said. “He said to join as many drama clubs as I could manage and to try to be mysterious and not say too much in interviews.”
She added: “I thought meeting Robert Pattinson was enough, but then I got to go to the premiere as well, which was amazing.
