If you’re interested to hear more about Rob’s role in ‘Remember Me’ you HAVE TO read this interview from Risky Biz. Here, he talked ‘in-depth’ about his role in the movie, meeting with Jenny Lumet (the screenwriter) and why he chose to be involved in the project. He also talked about this role in ‘Unbound Captives’ and what it’d be like to play a Comanche. Oh, and of course – he also confirmed that ‘Breaking Dawn’ is going to be made into a movie (hmm…I’m not commenting to that).
Here’s a snippet of the interview:
HR: How did “Remember Me” come about?
Pattinson: I read the script last summer and then met with (director) Allen Coulter and really liked it. It’s quite a simple story but there was something about the character and way he spoke that was very similar to the way I speak. There is a naturalism to the writing and I really felt a connection to it.
THR: What’s the script about?
Pattinson: I read somewhere it was being described as the modern day “Love Story.” It isn’t anything like “Love Story.” It (“Remember Me”) is really hard to describe. It about a 23-year-old guy and knowing someone for six weeks. You don’t just fall in love and say, I’m in love, after six weeks. It’s really a relationship story. It’s very natural and the characters are incredibly real and well scripted. It’s one of the few scripts I’ve read where you finish and realize you didn’t really want it to end. I have no qualms in saying that (writer) Jenny (Lumet) is a genius.

Cilla – such a tease, you know what I think about Remember Me. Cannot wait until February. Plus – had to laugh at – I can’t remember where I parked my car. LOL – clearly he doesn’t have time read the internet and clearly someone is going to be annoyed that he’s not going to go and pick it up!
Thanks for posting this interview, Cilla! I really enjoyed it, lots of information, there, and very insightful, especially concerning Rob’s script choice process :).
So they *did* shoot part of “Eclipse” together with “New Moon”…
Tyler is “quite similar” to Rob… one more reason to see this film… I’m also glad it’s not the “modern day Love Story”… I felt a cold shiver down my spine, for a moment, when I heard that one some time ago!
“I prefer to do nothing than something stupid.” Hear that, Zac?
“Made me feel like a man, buying a car.”
Hahaha! Rob, you’re too much!
