I’m just going to point out that the image above was done by me and not Jules – lol who am I kidding you all know that’s not Jules’ brilliance. Anway, for reasons beyond Jules’ control she was unable to finalise this week’s promo edit. Rest assured I only stepped in for emergency purposes. Now on to regular programming.  I cannot believe it – how is it December. I’ve been doing these week in reviews for just over a year now.  Where has the time gone.  Oh yeah I have spent most of it looking for Rob’s films at theatres and info about them that I think the year just disappeared. LIFE: I am forever saying how much I love BTS stills, they give us a glimpse into a world we rarely see. Keep them coming I say. Also, there are so many screenings of the film coming up and I’m not just talking about first time release. How great is it that Télérama is acknowledging what a great film Life is by including it in their 2016 Festival. I love that there are also random screenings around the UK and the Netherlands. Turkey, the US & Canada have also unleashed the film this week. Unfortunately for Indonesia though they have pushed back their release until 2016 something to do with classification I believe. As you know I’ve spent some considerable time searching for theatre screenings and found that there are quite a few variations to the release dates in the US & Canada between 1 Dec 2015 to January 2016, so make sure you check out our post that I’ve sticky’d to the top of the site. Also don’t forget you can watch it on demand and download on iTunes. I tweeted some interesting articles – one from Kasey Lea who plays James Dean’s cousin in the film who had some lovely words about Rob (and Dane) and one of Dane’s recent interviews. Speaking of Dane, he was tweeting away promoting the film and knows how to get our attention. I updated the international review post – I loved the Sun-Times quote “further evidence [Pattinson’s] a legitimate actor with a bright future, & the willingness to sublimate ego in favor of craft”. QUEEN OF THE DESERT: I updated the international reviews for this film too with a great one about Rob “Robert Pattinson is the only one who makes sense as T.E. Lawrence”. Yes Rob is always one of the few making complete sense. What about that gorgeous BTS still of Rob and the cubs. Still jealous. WATER FOR ELEPHANTS: I love that we are bombarded with Rob on our TV. It’s also funny that we get an interview with Francis Lawrence and he’s asked about working with Rob. Always interesting to hear an outsider’s opinion even if it does ruffle some feathers. HIGH LIFE: Des Hamilton Casting is looking for an 17-28 yo female with Albinism.  This movie fascinates me. It was great to see that the Franco-German Film Meeting culminated in some cash going Claire Denis way for this film. As I said, one step closer. THE TRAP:  Waiting for that “visual assault” Harmony. I know you won’t disappoint. IN OTHER NEWS:  I came across an article on Camille Rowe which mentioned how great the Dior campaign with Rob was for her career. I couldn’t go past posting that vid of Rob from Harry Potter days – 10 years. I wonder what that Rob would think of today’s Rob.  As we head quickly towards Christmas, let’s see what next week brings shall we. I know I’ve been good Santa – just saying. Until then …

You have been doing the weekly reviews gor a year??? No way. Where the hell is my time going. Seeing all that Maria has done in a week leaves me with no excuses.
The edit is wonderful Maria. Thanks for all hard work.
Yes Carmel amazing right. I started them in November 2014. I had been talking about doing them for months and then when I went away in September I realised how useful they could be for those who aren’t able to visit every day or as often as they hoped 🙂
If I had had a guess I probably would have said 3 months ago. It is a brilliant feature. All your hard work putting it together each week is truly appreciated
How time flies!! Thanks as always for ALL your hard work Maria, sooooo much appreciated and even more so this week – thank you for helping out in my hour of need haha The edit is wonderful – thank you!! 😀
