Robert Pattinson becomes manic/wild about ideas
Â
Meredith Goldstein from The Boston Globe interviewed Robert and the Safdie Bros during the Good Time promo and below is an extract from her interview:
Just before an interview with the Safdie brothers – the filmmakers behind the gritty crime-thriller “Good Time†– a reporter gets a warning: “They like to talk.†… Their “Good Time†star Robert Pattinson calls this trait an “abundance of energy.â€
“It’s just that, from Day 1, Minute 1 of the day until wrap,†he said. “Just always at maximum.â€
…
The project came out of a meeting with Pattinson, who told us in a phone interview that he was drawn to the “frenetic, frenzied energy†of the brothers’ work.
…
Pattinson said he feels lucky to have worked with them when he did.
“I could really see that people around hadn’t really noticed the extent of their potential when I first met them,†he said. “You can feel that they had — that they still have a lot inside them people haven’t really seen yet.â€
Meredith also added some additional information from the discussion with Robert in her tweets below:
- ok fine 1 thing. he said people assume he’s brooding/quiet because of his most famous characters, but IRL he gets manic/wild about ideas.
- We also talked about
@GoodTimeMov vs Cosmopolis, and he said that his character in Cosmopolis is more energetic as the movie progresses. - whereas in Good Time, his character looks like he’s hitting a wall. Also, he said both characters appeal to him because “They desperately want to touch some kind of reality whether it’s time or whether it’s any kind of conventional, emotional connection …”
- And I did not ask “are we talking about you or your characters, Robert Pattinson” but I assumed it was sort of both.
- He talked about this character, who seems to be chasing his tail:Â “You know when you see a dog going faster and faster and faster. Eventually at a certain point you’re like, well, that’s kind of profound.”
- I told him that the Safdie brothers called his face “iconic,” and he said:Â “I don’t know how it works as an icon. Just, as [they say] in the movie, just some white guy.”

I hope someday Rob gets a director like Ron Howard or Spielberg. They make great films with feelings +good stories.Rob can do any part, damn it!
