Clemenceau reviews Cosmopolis in his Weekly Web Magazine 2 comments
Starts at 2:27
Last movie I saw this week, Cosmopolis by David Cronenberg.
The story: It’s one day in the life of Eric Packer, golden boy in need of a haircut when things go off the deep end.
I loved it! Hats off to Robert Pattinson’s performance, who’s really good. And I wasn’t a big fan before.
It has everything we like: money, sex, death, desire, power, war and goat cheese.
The film is hot and the dialogues are completely crazy. The dialogues are from Don DeLillo’s novel, seeing as the movie is an adaptation of his book.
Last thing is Mathieu Amalric’s acting (I’m a big fan) and Juliette Binoche who are in the movie and simply amazing.
I gave it 4 out of 5 points. It’s a really great movie that I warmly recommend.
New Robert Pattinson Interview with Premiere.fr 1 comment
Premiere: Is there some part of you that is thrilled to surprise your Twilight fans who would see Cosmopolis?
Robert: When my casting in Cosmopolis was announced, I saw many of them buying Don DeLillo’s book. And it doesn’t shock them at all that I’m playing a role like this one. On the contrary, I feel liek they want to see us succeed, for us to be successful after the saga. They want us to be loved and respected. They’re aren’t fans like any others, they might not all be movie fanatics, but I can feel in them a desire to become one. They’re interested in what we do, even if it’s an usual movie like Cosmopolis. Actors that are in popular hits or franchises, often feel like they have to do things that would please ‘this’ audience. But I think that they underestimate their spectators. I know that Twilight fans want to adapt themselves. If you’ve played in Transformers, it doesn’t mean you have to limit yourself to that all your life.
P: Cosmopolis press promise to be … interesting. In hope that all the interviews won’t focus only on one particular scene.
RP: I don’t see which scene they could focus on that would reduce/narrow down the movie …
P: I do …
RP: You mean the chek-up scene, I guess? Having said that now, it’s a pretty good promo for the movie: “So, you get your prostate checked in Cosmopolis?” *laughs* As soon as I have an erotic scene, teh most commun you could imagine, I know I’ll hear about it.

Robert Pattinson appeared on Le Grand Journal (france) with Sarah Gadon to promote Cosmopolis at Cannes.
Translation
Michel: You were here in 2009, you walked the red carpet. We have footage. You did it again yesterday for another movie, for On the Road and you’re going to do it again tomorrow for your first movie in competition. Cosmopolis by David Cronenberg, that’s long-awaited. You said this movie changed you life. I quote from Premiere magazine: you said it gave you balls.
Rob: I don’t know why everyone brings up the balls thing. I think it got lost in translation. I wanted to say that I got balls surgically attached to my body during the whole movie. (cont)

Translation of the interview:
Interview with a vampire
Robert Pattinson grew fangs after the Twilight saga. He’s bringing them out to portray a greedy golden boy for Cronenberg. Charming and honest, he welcomed us in Los Angeles. By Jacky Goldberg.
The interview took place on the last floor of the Soho House that overlooks Sunset Strip. It was on the patio of the private club where cameras and telephones were forbidden. He was without his press agent. He wore a three days beard, a cap, brown chino cloth pants, and a plaid shirt.
The interview lasted one hour.
You live in LA now?
RP: Yes, for a little while now. At first I didn’t know what to do there and now when I’m far away I miss it. Even more than London where I grew up but that all my friends left. My family still lives there but they want to come here, same for my friends. It’s crazy, all you need is to spend a day in LA to want to move in. *laughs*
The movie breaks away from your image of the proper young man molded by Twilight and the few films that you filmed since then. Did you realise that as you were filming?
RP: Of course. I’m scared of being typecast *he thinks for a moment* … like most actors who starts for that matter: it’s important to branch out very early on. That’s the whole point. In fact, I got offered the lead in Cosmopolis on my last day of filming Breaking Dawn. Right at the moment when I thought I was scared of repeating myself and bam! Cronenberg is calling me! It’s better than anything I could ever dream of. Now I’m curious to see how the movie is received.
On the contrary, restrict yourself to only independent movies and not doing blockbusters anymore, doesn’t that scare you?
RP: Honestly, if I could only play movies like Cosmopolis, it would be amazing. But they’re hard to get. To tell you the truth, I’m not really interested by being at the head of big movies. First, it’s harder to do: you have 20 people to answer to – in Cosmopolis: just one.
Then, in general, there’s one two possible roles in those movies: you’re either a teenager who becomes a man, or a teenager who’s completely screwed up. when you’re barely twenty, it’s okay, you’re having fun, you discover an incredible world, girls worship you. But it can’t last forever.
