BEL AMI

Music Composed by
Lakshman Joseph De Saram (Between Two Worlds)
and
Rachel Portman
(The Vow, Grey Gardens, The Cider House Rules)

Based on the novel by Guy de Maupassant, BEL AMI is an erotically charged tale of ambition, power, and seduction that chronicles the rise of penniless ex-soldier Georges Duroy (Robert Pattinson — The Twilight Saga, Remember Me) from poverty up through the echelons of the 1890s Parisian “beau monde” elite. Using his wits and powers of seduction, Duroy moves from a prostitute’s embrace to passionate trysts with wealthy beauties who inhabit a world where sex is power and celebrity an obsession, and where politics and media jostle for influence.

Also starring Uma Thurman, Kristin Scott Thomas, Christina Ricci and Colm Meaney. BEL AMI is a timeless epic with a modern twist — a Dangerous Liaisons for a new generation.

Academy Award winner Rachel Portman (Emma) contributes the emotional but spirited original score.
Columbia Pictures opens BEL AMI nationwide on March 2.

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 1

Recent high school graduate Bella Swan grows up a lot, becoming a bride, a potential mother and perhaps something stranger. Yet the “Twilight Saga” hasn’t matured along with its heroine. In the movie’s bland first half, Bella (Kristen Stewart) prepares for woodland nuptials with pasty vampire dreamboat Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson). The couple’s long-delayed consummation, supposedly both scary and wonderful, was enough to render Bella pregnant. Edward worried that his lovemaking would be too much for a mere human, but his shattering force pales next to the fetus’s. Jacob Black’s (Taylor Lautner) werewolf clan fears Bella and Edward’s offspring and plans to terminate it. This is the series’ swoon-inducing premise: to be desired by the two hottest boys in town, who compete to be best at protecting you. There’ll be a lot more protecting in “Breaking Dawn — Part 2,” scheduled for November. (Available Saturday.) Contains disturbing images, violence, sexuality/partial nudity and some thematic elements. DVD extras: six-part making-of documentary, wedding video, “Jacob’s Destiny” featurette, commentary with director Bill Condon, two fast-forward features for scenes with Edward or Jacob.

22. Robert Pattinson in the ‘Twilight’ Movies

Playing a vampire in a series of movies comes with its own set of problems, not the least of which is the built-in time limit of playing a character who doesn’t age. While Robert Pattinson was 22 playing 17 in the first Twilight movie, he’ll be 26 playing the part in the final film. Forgive us the pun, but that’s getting a little long in the tooth for a teenage vampire.

Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 1:

Three stars out of five — Like all fine cheeses, The Twilight Saga ripens with age. Once bland and milky-white, the story of Bella Swan’s transformation from innocence to adulthood grows increasingly textured with each new outing. This latest effort is easily the strongest to date, as director Bill Condon finds a way to lighten the melodrama with a little self-winking humour, without eroding the romantic core of the whole franchise. This is the instalment every Twihard was waiting for, as it features the physical consummation of Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward’s (Robert Pattinson) love. This symbolic and physical deflowering of Bella is the central hook for this whole episode, and Condon has to take us into the breathless, heart-thumping world of a virgin facing the cliff of experience — and leaping into the abyss. With the help of Stewart’s strongest performance to date, Condon successfully conveys the depth of connection between the two lovers. We believe in their passion, and, once we’re on that page, we can swallow the rest of the plot without choking on the hokum. Special features include six-part behind-the-scenes documentary, Bella and Edward’s wedding video, Jacob’s Destiny, Edward Fast Forward, Jacob Fast Forward, audio commentary and more. (Released Feb. 11).
