The reactions coming out of #TIFF18 about #HighLife are saying it's disturbing, uncomfortable and has people walking out midway.— MovieGainz (@MovieGainz) September 10, 2018

So HIGH LIFE is major and that’s all I’m going to say because you need to go into this blind #TIFF18— 𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙣𝙖𝙝 (@goodjobliz) September 11, 2018
Claire Denis prefaces HIGH LIFE as a sci-fi drama, but it’s truly a study on humanity when dealing with isolation, desire, violence, and relationships. Truly a magnetic piece of cinema #TIFF18— Warren Kang (@warjkang) September 11, 2018
People were scandalized by HIGH LIFE? I thought it was truly beautiful. A masterpiece, even. I’m blown away. #TIFF18— Jesse Taylor @ TIFF (@jesssetaylor) September 11, 2018
High Life: Claire Denis does sci-fi, results are as confounding as you expect. Feels too long, but parts are interesting, and Robert Pattinson continues to prove himself as one of our most intriguing actors. It's polarizing, but didn't hate it, didn't love it. It's fine? #TIFF18— John Corrado at #TIFF18 🇨🇦 (@1Movie5Views) September 11, 2018
HIGH LIFE (Denis): It takes roughly one shot of this film to know you’re in the hands of a master; maybe 30 minutes to realize you’re watching a landmark movie; and the remainder to confirm you’ve experienced a visionary piece of cinema. #TIFF18— Jordan Cronk (@JordanCronk) September 11, 2018
#TIFF18 HIGH LIFE: I have no idea what I just watched. Just that I loved it. And holy fuck.— Dr Shelagh Rowan-Legg (@bonnequin) September 11, 2018
HIGH LIFE is a gloriously cinematic, peculiar, visceral, overwhelming experience. A sci fi with ideas and something to say. I loved it #TIFF18— Nellie Thornley (@nellienorus) September 11, 2018
Pattinson doing the most this year just to let Hedges and Chamelet know who the real King is #HighLife #TIFF2018 https://t.co/N0dSFILgac pic.twitter.com/RBtawuRc0J— Carl Broughton II (@Carlislegendary) September 11, 2018
HIGH LIFE is... wild! And of course engrossing and challenging and rewarding as hell. REWARDING: listening to Claire and Cameron speak after the film, so many ellipses brought into clearer focus. And in Claire’s thoughtful responses, a fundamental grounding in humanist intent.— Barry Jenkins (@BarryJenkins) September 11, 2018
Robert Pattinson is learning the hard way that not every woman needs rescuing.
The actor stars in Damsel alongside Mia Wasikowska — a western written and directed by David Zellner and Nathan Zellner that throws into question the craziest things people do for love. Pattinson plays Samuel Alabaster, a pioneer who journeys across the country to be with Wasikowska’s Penelope.
But things don’t go according to plan when he gets there, and Penelope welcomes him with the sight of a shotgun pointed straight at him. In the exclusive clip above, the two face off after Pattinson says he bought her a miniature horse because it’s her favorite animal, but she has something else to say about it.
David and Nathan said Pattinson and Wasikowska jumped into the unconventional characters immediately.
“With Rob and Mia, we liked that they’d never done roles like this before and that they were excited about the challenges of the characters and unconventional structure of the film,” the directors tell PEOPLE. “They quickly dialed into the tone we were going for, the balance of humor and pathos, and it made our job easy.”
A24 has acquired North American rights to “Good Time,” a caper film with Robert Pattinson, Variety has learned.
The film follows a bank robber’s race to evade the police dragnet that threatens to send him behind bars. Josh and Benny Safdie directed the movie from a screenplay by Josh Safdie and Ronald Bronstein. “Good Time” also stars Jennifer Jason-Leigh and Barkhad Abdi.
The Safdie brothers are well known in the indie film community for their work on “Go Get Some Rosemary” and “Heaven Knows What.” Pattinson shot to fame as the brooding vampire in the “Twilight” films. Since accelerating the heart rates of teen girls the world over, he’s used his heartthrob status to get backing for edgier fare, working with David Cronenberg on “Map to the Stars” and “Cosmopolis,” and appearing in the upcoming James Gray drama “Lost City of Z.”Since The Rover, A24 has continued to gather notable works and made a mark last year during awards season with the film, Room (starring Oscar winner, Brie Larson). They also have some buzzy projects for this award season as well. Click HERE to keep reading the Variety exclusive.
The Western era comedy, Damsel, wrapped up filming last week and is scheduled to premiere early next year. Robert Pattinson and Mia Wasikowska co-star in this comedy about a man trying to marry the woman of his dreams.It also appears the film has wrapped in Oregon and overall! Congrats, Rob, and we can't wait to see the film!
Since Twilight, Pattinson has found a new niche in the art-house world with films like Cosmopoli and The Rover. The Zellner Brothers’ new project, Damsel, fits the bill of art-house, but should be more lighthearted than the former. It was fun having him in our State and by the looks of it, he wears Utah proudly.
T.E. Lawrence himself appears (played in eccentric, tongue in cheek fashion by Robert Pattinson of Twilight fame)...Pattinson’s performance, meanwhile, is comic and a very long way removed from Peter O'Toole. He plays Lawrence Of Arabia as a sharp-tongued, sardonic figure who can see through the pretensions of his bosses and colleagues.Excerpt from The Playlist:
In fact, of the actors not overwhelmed by the heavy sense that "we're playing old-timey dudes in old-timey duds," Robert Pattinson (though the duds do sit awkwardly on him), for words about whom, I'll face the fact that probably 75% of the readers of this review will have expressly tuned in, is most surprising. The part is small. He only has a few scenes, but helped by the writing of TE Lawrence as an ego-driven but lighthearted, whimsical brainbox, he actually sounds like he believes he is living in modern times, not some anachronistic recreation. And so even when he has ponderous words to say, such as when he quotes Jefferson's famous, damning line, "I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just," he does so lightly, conversationally — unconvincing costume aside, he lets a little life in.Excerpt from The Guardian:
Perhaps in flight from her internal emotional turmoil, Bell cultivates her passionate interest in the Bedouin tribesmen and displaces her need for romantic love outwards – into the desert. There she is to encounter Lawrence himself, played boyishly by Robert Pattinson. He looks a little self-conscious in the headdress – though perhaps no more self-conscious than Lawrence himself looked in it. His appearance got a few laughs from the Berlin festival audience, but Pattinson carried off this (minor) role well enough.Excerpt from The Hollywood Reporter:
The brief but significant appearances of Robert Pattinson as T.E. LawrenceExcerpt from Criticwire:
Robert Pattinson gets relatively high marks for his brief turn as the bonafide T.E. LawrenceExcerpt from The People's Movies:
With the exception of Robert Pattinson as T. E. Lawrence, her male counterparts are somewhat lacking.Excerpt from Indiewire:
The most ironic aspect of the enterprise is that the one man with whom Bell conducts believable, intriguing dealings is the one upon whom her sex-appeal has zero effect: none other than T.E. Lawrence himself, played with a plummy-voiced knowingness by Robert Pattinson. Pattinson doesn't get very much screen time here, but manages to come up with a Lawrence a universe away from Peter O'Toole's iconic portrayal - a kind of proto-Beat rebel in fancy Arab duds - and his dialogue exchanges with Kidman have a little touch of Steed and Mrs. Peel that at least gives their scenes some kind of oomph.Excerpt from The Film Stage:
She encounters various historical figures, such as T.E. Lawrence (Robert Pattinson, in hilariously pretentious form)Updating...
I believe you said you’d make three films and then evaluate from there, and “Life” is your fourth film. Yeah and for the first three films I made a book about the films because I also [thought they were] going to be my last films. It’s just snapshots with some lighting. But for the fourth film I decided not to do it anymore, so I don’t feel it’s my last film.
That’s interesting there’s no book, just because “Life” has a photography component, with Dennis Stock.I know, and it’s always in the back of your mind because you have the camera ready if there’s a picture I can take anywhere. But you should actually concentrate on other things. And with “Life,” we shot it in the winter in New York and Toronto, and it was the worst winter in 30 years. I have very low blood pressure so I can’t touch these things.
In “Life,” Dane DeHaan will be playing James Dean. How difficult was it to cast someone in that role?It was difficult. Also I think for the actors it’s very difficult to step in his shoes. But Dane DeHaan plays it well. He’s a tremendous actor. I don’t think he wanted to do it initially. He wouldn’t take a meeting with me because he didn’t want to be persuaded. But luckily he came to me and he was persuaded. He’s amazing.
He’s great in “Kill Your Darlings.”Yeah, and “Place Beyond the Pines.” I haven’t seen “Spider-Man [2].” “Lawless” I have seen. And he’s in “Devil’s Knot” and “Life After Beth.” I haven’t seen that. I was in Sundance but I didn’t manage to see a single film.
What about Robert Pattinson’s work in the movie?Rob and Dan very different kind of actors. They’re very, very different kind of people in the film, so it was fantastic. They were so different naturally. For Rob to play a photographer is quite interesting because he’s being chased by photographers all the time. Rob is of course a film star, but he likes to be seen as an actor, so he works very hard to be an actor and be valued as an actor. And in the film he plays this photographer who wants to be seen as a great photographer. So I think there’s a parallel there that’s helpful.
He’s made a lot of interesting acting choices, “Cosmopolis”…...Yeah, “The Rover.” I hear that “Map to the Stars” is a really great film. I am looking forward to seeing it.
I was hoping to see “Life” announced as part of the TIFF 2014 lineup. Yeah, I was hoping that too, but we are too far from finishing, because we finished [shooting] in late October.
Will we see it at on the fall festival circuit anywhere?I reckon it will be 2015.I'm so so so looking forward to this film in 2015. SO looking forward.
A post-apocalyptic western about a lone wolf drifter who joins forces with a wounded man to pursue a sadistic band of thieves. A decade after the collapse of the western world, Australia has become a lawless wasteland. As desperate outsiders pillage the country’s precious mineral resources, taciturn Eric (Guy Pearce) travels from town to town searching for signs of life. Then, one day, Eric falls prey to vicious thieves who steal his car. In the process of making their getaway, the thieves abandon Rey (Robert Pattinson), their wounded partner-in-crime. Meanwhile Eric vows to reclaim his most treasures possession by whatever means necessary, and forces Rey to help him track down the men who left him for dead.WOW well what did you think of that then?
