Thierry Fremaux talks about Robert Pattinson helping Good Time compete for the Palme d'Or at Cannes
I know it's a translation but I love the "be bolder" from Rob. I can believe this :)
Google Translation:
A call that can be a discovery
The selection process of the six films of this week of Cannes is, as always, varied. "It depends, for example: The Square that won the Palme d'Or, had already been released. Good Time, from the Safdie brothers, I did not choose it because they are two brothers and I like the brothers in the history of cinema ... For me, it was a midnight film for Cannes. But Robert Pattinson called me, his protagonist. "Please, you have to be bolder." I said, "Are you sure?" "Yes, yes, and I'm going to be in Cannes." "Well, we do it." He went well in the competition for the Palm, and now Scorsese is going to produce his next film. That is Cannes. Tradition and discoveries. "
Original from Clarin:
Un llamado que puede ser un descubrimiento
El proceso de selección de las seis películas de esta Semana de Canes es, como siempre, variado. “Depende, por ejemplo: The Square que ganó la Palma de Oro, ya se había estrenado. Good Time, de los hermanos Safdie, no la elegí porque son dos hermanos y a mí me gustan los hermanos en la historia del cine... Para mí, era una película de medianoche para Cannes. Pero me llamó Robert Pattinson, su protagonista. “Por favor, tenés que ser más audaz”. Yo le dije ¿”Estás seguro?” “Sí, sí, y yo voy a estar en Cannes”. “Bueno, lo hacemos”. Anduvo bien en la competencia por la Palma, y ahora Scorsese va a producir su próxima película. Eso es Cannes. Tradición y descubrimientos.”

I looooove these kind of rabid fire Q&As. It's like getting an instant download of Rob trivia. I'd say see if you can guess what he says but it goes pretty fast. So below are the options given to Rob and you can guess what he chooses before watching the video. I missed 2 of them. How many do you get right?? Have you done YOUR research? :))
Ok go for it!

Robert Pattinson talks self doubts, bleeding eyelids and making a convincing Bradley Cooper bodyguard
We are SO at risk of being lost in translation....this is a Google translation into English of a French translation of a German translation that was translated from English.....
Care to dance?
From Skip magazine (Austria):
"My eyelids bleed!"
It's not always easy for Robert Pattinson: stress is on him! In Cannes, he presented the drama Good Time and he told us that he knew how to manage his anxiety.
SKIP: How did it turn out with two directors?
Robert Pattinson: Difficult! The two competed all the time (laughs). It was quite restless. If two people speak constantly at the same time, it is sometimes quite perplexing.
Your roles are becoming more unusual - what are you looking for?
I do not know, I only know that I'm looking for something that is not predictable. I like a script in which I still do not know where the story goes on page 5. And I do not remember the last mainstream movie I saw and where I said "Wow !!" Although I like to watch a lot of superhero movies.
Would you like to?
I think it's more for people who are convinced that they can save the world. I am rather the opposite. (Laughter).
Do you sometimes want to just sit comfortably in the sun? You could do that ...
Oh I really spend enough time sitting down and doing nothing, do not worry! In fact, most of the time, when you look at it well. (Laughs) But I really like to turn, even if it's always a challenge. Every time I start a new film, I say to myself "My God, what am I doing here, I do not understand anything, I'm an idiot!" It's like climbing a big mountain. And the hardest thing for me is to convince myself that I can do it.
Have you always doubted you?
Oh yes, of course. And the older I get, the worse it is. But I do not see it as a scourge, it's just the opposite. I manage it. Even though it's when I go to an event that has a big impact, because I immediately imagine the worst-case scenario. Before Cannes, I was so nervous because I was always wondering what catastrophes might happen. Eventually, I made such an allergic reaction due to the stress that the skin of my eyelids rose. The day before the first there was even blood. What a look (laughs).
When can you relax? After the first?
Yes, maybe for 5 minutes (laughs). Then I immediately start looking for the bad reviews of the film.
You have a look that has nothing glamorous in Good Time, really normal ...
It was important because we filmed a lot in the street and with amateur actors. And we wanted to go everywhere, without people noticing what we were doing. It was fascinating to see how you can become so invisible. In a scene I play a security guard and apparently I was very convincing. I climbed into the elevator with a resident of the apartments who knew that a film was turning there. And he looked straight at me and asked, "Hey, are you Bradley Cooper's bodyguard?" (Laughter).
Does this mean that all the hype around Twilight is finally over?
I do not know, I find that these films are still in the minds of people and that my other performances are still compared. I never felt that it was a burden I had to get rid of.
Not too bad. We've had worse translation situations. The French translation had to be good for us to get an understandable English translation out of it - and from Google no less! Plus, if you can read German, you're in luck. Just click the scans above and you're only one part removed from the first translation. LOL

#RobertPattinson invited me to come and photograph him at a party he was hosting with @Dior in Cannes. We had our own section to sit quietly and get to know one another through imagery. It is always calming to meet a fellow Brit in such a unique and foreign situation, to which he was a true and kind gentleman.SIGH

Another interview under the cut!
From news.com.au, Robert Pattinson was surviving on tinned tuna and living in a basement:
ROBERT Pattinson took method acting to the next level for his role as a low-life robber in the upcoming film, Good Time.
He eschewed the usual five star accommodation laid on for a celebrity of his calibre and chose to live in one of New York’s seediest neighbourhoods.
“I literally lived in the same basement apartment [as the character] in Harlem. I never opened my curtains, didn’t change the sheets the entire time I was there, for those two months, and I would just sleep in my clothes,” he tells news.com.au.
“There was this woman who lived upstairs and she kept trying to see what was going on because she thought I was such a weirdo. I kept really weird hours and I would run in and quickly close the curtains.” He laughs.
“I was like this freak living in the bottom of the basement.”
It’s impressive that he maintained this lifestyle — though it must have been difficult for those around him, not to mention, rather smelly? He laughs. “I was by myself the whole time.
“I only ate cans of tuna the whole time. I probably have mercury poisoning now because I ate it just out of the can. That’s all that was there: tuna, hot sauce, and Nespresso capsules.”
It seems his commitment paid off. At the Cannes Film Festival, where the audiences are tough at the best of times, Pattinson received a standing ovation when the end credits rolled. Quite a departure from his adored role in the Twilight franchise which made him an international celebrity but his acting skills were never taken seriously.
I ask him whether he was surprised by the positive reaction he received towards his performance.
“I am always way more surprised that I am considered a heart throb.” He laughs. “That really blows my mind. Before Twilight, I never got the good looking parts, ever. I was gangly,” he insists.
“What’s weird is that you can do one movie and everything changes. I think that’s why I get a lot of weird reactions to me being in movies. You have someone’s face [associated with a beloved fictional role] and then people were so obsessed with that character.
“In Twilight they were like, ‘You are so beautiful.’ Literally, the amount of times that I’ve been walking down the street, looking disgusting, and then someone who is a Twilight fan would say, ‘You’re so beautiful!’ And [I wanted to say], ’You are literally, actually not seeing reality,’” he says.
“And there are other people who got furious over it, saying, ‘What are you talking about? He’s ugly!’” He sighs. “So stupid!” He looks at the ground, shakes his head and says, “I can’t believe I just talked about that.”
Pattinson must have felt validated at the reaction he received on opening night at the glamorous festival. “It was crazy. People were crying. And this movie specifically was such a long shot. I am really proud of it. It’s a really nice feeling.”
He’s hoping Good Time will change his perception in Hollywood. “Doing a role like this allows you more freedom on the next job. Hopefully people will think, ‘I want to take a risk on him.’ Before it was like, ‘Everyone thinks you are sh*t,’ and the director would be like, ‘No. No one would believe you in that kind of role.’ But if you have proven yourself a few times people will say, ‘Yeah, maybe we will go with him. Hopefully it will work out’,” he says, shrugging his shoulders. “But of course there are no guarantees.”
Times have changed since he had paparazzi following his every move. “I really don’t have to think about the fans [anymore]. I live in London where it’s not really a thing. And also, over the last few years, just the nature of fame has changed so much.
“I noticed even in LA, there’s hardly any paparazzi anymore because people take their own photos on Instagram. Nobody buys gossip magazines because everybody just looks on the internet,” he says.
“So, if there’s no money in it, no one does it anymore. It’s great.” He grins. “In LA, there were areas where I would never dream of going to, like certain shopping streets. Five years ago, there would be 30 paparazzi on every street. I am just getting used to that and it’s so nice to let that fear of being spied on go away.”
The last time we spoke was for his Dior commercial when he became the spokesman for the luxe brand. “Yeah, it’s funny. I remember signing up with Dior and I was so nervous about it because a few years ago when I decided to do it there weren’t that many actors doing that kind of thing on that level. They might do it in Japan or somewhere where they thought they wouldn’t get noticed. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be taken seriously as an actor.”
But they dangled the carrot and Pattinson couldn’t resist. “They gave me final cut on the commercial.” He smiles. “Then the next year, literally every single actor in the world was doing one. So, it’s not really a moral conundrum anymore.”
It seems his second job pays well. “Yes, it does. I am basically a model, that’s my other job.”Love all these quotes from Rob and a nice variety. I'm also glad DiorRob is his steady second job. I hope he always keeps it for purely selfish reasons....
