The publisher shared some more info with us about Alice's Redhead series and her inspiration for a certain character. If you wished Rob became more than a cat named Clive in published work then you'll love this excerpt from the author, Alice Clayton :)

So we've been beating around the bush for two weeks now, and I think its time for me to officially and without question declare my love for everyone's favorite Brit. I love me some Rob. I love me some Rob with a love that is unholy and bordering on frightening. I would break that guy. But while he is most certainly handsome, and most certainly smack-you-in-the-head swoonworthy, what I adore most about Rob is his wit. His Brit wit. The guy is FUNNY. Someone please explain to me why he has not hosted SNL because he would kill it!! Was he the inspiration for Jack in my Redhead Series? Oh hell yes. And next week, everyone here is gonna get a sneak peek at Book 3 from The RedheadSeries, stay tuned! But for today, let us simply revel in the otherworldy beauty that is The Robert and The Pattinson. I would commit more than a few crimes to be able to have him over for tea. Ahem...

Sounds like one of you guys in the DR is Alice! I second that motion that Rob should host SNL or star in another comedy, STAT! Did that increase your interest in the runner-up prize or what?? :)

Robert Pattinson's "Cosmopolis" Makes Slant Magazine's List Of 25 Best Films Of 2012

Robert Pattinson's "Cosmopolis" Makes Slant Magazine's List Of 25 Best Films Of 2012

Yet another best of list for "Cosmopolis". It's at no 13 of Slant Magazine's 25 Best Films Of 2012.
Expect more to come in the next few weeks.



From Slant Magazine :

13. Cosmopolis. In the end, it's mere gravy that David Cronenberg's Cosmopolis unfolds in a world that eerily, and almost blatantly, reflects our modern headlines, its Occupy themes and global-capital woes perpetually looming. What's truly depicted in this gorgeous adaptation of Don DeLillo's prescient 2003 novel is the whittling down of the poster boy of individual, millennial anxieties, sparked by the deadly, rampant elixir of privilege, apathy, and telecommuting. From his rolling command center of a white limousine, the WiFi hot spot of the obscenely rich, billionaire Eric Packer (a revelatory Robert Pattinson) is at once linked up to the world and maddeningly removed from it, his personal, untried revolving door granting equal access to wisdom and delusion, personified by the limo's parade of guests. Evoking its director's past aesthetics and bodily interests with cool restraint, Cosmopolis is a wry, stylish nightmare of contemporary disconnect, and an audacious charting of all that crumbles when reality seeps in. With much dialogue lifted verbatim from DeLillo's text, the film's dizzying verbosity may be challenging to swallow, but in a cinematic year teeming with lone protagonists clawing for ways to survive, it has more to say—and to mull over—than maybe 100 movies.  R. Kurt Osenlund

Cosmopolis with Robert Pattinson, "played to perfection", is one of the most overlooked films of 2012

Cosmopolis with Robert Pattinson, "played to perfection", is one of the most overlooked films of 2012

Be proud, DR! Cosmopolis makes another year end list!



This time from The Film Stage's Most Overlooked Films of 2012:

This one’s been stewing in my brain for months, and none of the reflection has tainted this film one bit; if anything, it’s only grown more valuable over time. David Cronenberg’s limousine trip into the damaged perspective of a young, emotionally hollow fat cat — played to perfection by a not-as-advertised Robert Pattinson — can’t really be considered the most accessible work of 2012, but those willing to go with its strange rhythms and mysterious internal logic are bound to get… something. While I think it’s best people make the thing out for themselves by just letting it all sit, those simply hoping for a left-of-center cinematic experience ought to find themselves more than pleased. And that’s without even considering the incredible music of Howard Shore & Metric.
