Tom Sturridge's new movie Pirate Radio (The Boat That Rocked) opened this weekend in the US. It has amazing reviews and friends that have seen it in the UK all say it's a good movie filled with good music and great actors. Do yourself a favor and see it ;)
Bullz-Eye.com has an interview with Tom. I loved the interview and Tom's sense of humor. He is as self deprecating as Robert Pattinson is and if you have time you should definitely read the whole interview. BUT this is the part that makes me love Tom more:
J1: These days, is it a blessing or a curse to be friends with Robert Pattison?
TS: Um… (Long pause) As his friend, I really just don’t want…there are oceans of words written and spoken about him and his world, and I don’t want to add to them.
J1: Well, let’s put it this way: since all of this has happened to him, has your friendship changed at all with him, or is it pretty much the same?
TS: I… (Long pause) Again, as his friend and to be fair to him, I don’t want to be the one to…
J1: That’s fine.
TS: I’m not being weird. I just don’t want him ever to have to pick up a piece of paper and see me talking about him. It would just be…weird.
Gozde: When everyone wants a piece of you and keeps yapping about you it must be a good thing to have friends like this. Kudos Tom :)

Tom Sturridge is a real friend.Rob is lucky to have him.
Ahhh TomStu is adorable.. Think I will drag myself out and go see this movie today...
Integrity. Class. Loyalty.
Traits sadly amiss in these times..
Love that he can take comfort with friends and family in this new crazy world he finds himself in.
Oh and THEY ARE SO TOTALLY HOLDING HANDS!
Long Love the Bromance!
@RPG if you like music EVEN a LITTLE BIT.. you will love it.
I saw the UK Version, and seeing the US version today!
I use to correspond with one of the dj's from Radio Caroline which the film is based on.
Rock On, Girl!
hahahahaha!cute picture!loved that second one its sooo cute and playful!he seems like a really great friend.just be careful posting pis like that coz some nasty crazies over on the awful truth blogs keep trying to wind up rob fans by saying that he and tom are lovers and pics like this only fuel their lunatic imaginations!
Really Sarah?
People say things about Rob that speculate on his love life?
I didn't know.
(lol)
Sarah: rule of thumb; NEVER read the awful truth boards :)
Is the Robstu white T-shirt and the Munich white T-shirt the same one? If it is, great fashion continuity Gozde. :)
Maybe not, the Munich one looks like it's been shrunk in the wash.
The wash? :)
Go see this movie! It's excellent, I kept laughing (will all the audience I assure you!) the whole time. You never knwo what will happen, every scene seems better than the one before, and all actors are perfect.
I can't believe it's only now in theatres in the USA. In fnrace we already have the dvd. And, actually, I'm watching it right now with my sister (true! it's a grey sunday afternoon here).
Wow...just wow!
That is a loyal and true friend.
CH could learn a little from this wise young man.
sorry for the typos. It's hard to have an eye on the computer and another on the tv!
And yeah, great answers Tom. Rob definitely has good friends.
@suz...
Yea, I sorta like music!!!
Countdown bb!!! If it were me I'd have stay drunk for the next few days... Are you partaking ?
It's nice to know that Rob is around good people, even the manager and the agent who always with him . i think its hard to stay sane in his line of work. a lot of stress, girls, alcohol and drugs around. i heart Tom. nice movie watch it.
best post I've read in a while... I'm still chuckling in my coffee!
And TomStu is a sweetheart. Bless his litlle heart, I hope his movie does well - he's adorable in it.
AWww, that's so cool of him. Rob is lucky to have friends like that.
Snaps for Tom!
Tom has a big heart. Rob lucky to have him.
Thanks for posting this! It's so nice to see that there are still genuine, uninterested people around. THAT is what true friends are like. We all need a TomStu in our life (and a Rob of course but that's just obvious lol)
I love Tom's Eddie Money t-shirt! Always nice to see the young 'uns appreciating the old school ;-)
What a class act Tom is. I heard an interviewer say Bobby Long said something similar when asked about Rob recently in an interview. It is a true testament to his friends who are clearly less successful (hopefully not for long) that they will not use his name for the sake of more publicity. Went to see Pirate Radio and absolutely fell in love with Tom. He has a bright career ahead of him.
I already saw it, very nice Tom's ass
I'm looking forward to seeing this movie-not only my first chance to see TomStu in action, but I love Philip Seymour Hoffman, he is an awesome actor and so funny!! and lots more great people in the cast, I really think it's going to be great.
I'm so happy that Rob has got these wonderful friends in his life to back him up, I hope they get to spend some time together soon. And I adore both pics of RobStu, long live the bromance! ;))
Love me some TomStu. But this is nothing new. I remember months ago when he did another interview and he refused to talk about Rob. I'm glad he's sticking to that. Now that's a true friend. They have known each other since they were 12.Tom knows where all the bodies are buried. And he is not going to dig a grave for his bff or himself. Nice.
I had no idea he and Tom Sturridge were friends, but that's really great to hear, sounds like a true friend. I loved The Boat That Rocked, it's a great film.
Oh and Tom got nominated for the play he did. It's some major award for being a newcomer. To bad he didn't win. But it shows that he is a true talent.
I am so glad for Rob that he has such good friends.
I was hoping to see this movie soon, perhaps today, and I didn't even know Tom was in it. The only person I noticed in the commercial was Hoffman, always worth seeing. I am not familiar with Tom's work yet.
Kelly Louise- No way!!! Shame. Your Robsessed card is on the verge of getting pulled. ROTFLMAO
That's Robsessed 101 to know who Rob's best buddies are. LOL
FYI: Tom,Sam, Marcus, Bobby and Andrew.
Solas- From the commercial I've seen Tom is shown for a few seconds. He is coming out of a room with a girl. His hair is really dark and his back is turned somewhat. I almost overlooked him myself.
Gozde: thanks for the moment for Tom. Yeah, TBTR aka PR does rock and for anyone who likes music from that era, Curtis knows his stuff.
@Shani: Tom's up for a couple of theatre awards and as far as I know they haven't announced yet? Fingers crossed.
Am looking forward to seeing his current project, where he holds hands with a, gasp, girl...;)
That's what I call a friend! Thanks for Rob...
Robert picks very good people to keep close to him. His tight circle of friends from years back and some of the people he's close to now through Twilight seriously have his back. I'm so glad he's been fortunate to find that many folks that loyal to be honest!
aww I like TomStu. I'm going to see Pirate Radio soon. I hope. I'm pretty excited about it.
yay for tomstu!
wasnt he like considered for the part of edward? lovely guy, but there can only be one edawrd :)
The boat that rocked is an amazing movie. I love it so much!
It has an amazing cast. Coincidentally it also stars Talulah Riley as Tom Sturridge's leading lady. She was also Rob's leading lady in the summer house. :)
Thanks for making me spit out my coffee all over the screen.
Funniest thing ive ever seen
A- Fingers and toes are crossed.
A- I saw one of Tom's interviews the other day and I thought he said he hadn't won.
I would count myself lucky to have a friend like that.
whispers Tess you do....
me
*smiles* Oh Suz... I just wanna squeeze you!
OK **ducking now*** That sounds more like an ex to me who I think is also trying to be just a friend again. I would bet Rob & Kris (together) don't hang with him for a while. I feel very strongly that they were more than friends. I have no issue with it at all. I think he's licking his wounds. I think he has/had it BAD for yummy Rob. I do. You may think I'm out in left field. But my twi-hards , we shall see. whatever the case - he did right by Rob. Kudos to TomStu.
Ive been waiting to see when this movie came out. Thanks for posting the info.
Long live the Bromance!!
S glad that Rob has good friends in his life.
@Shani: was it the Evening Standard? Thought that wasn't until Nov 23. That's the one I'm hoping for.
And I just have to say a word about Bill Nighy who steals nearly every movie he's in: luv him and hope Rob gets a chance to work with him soon.
