Mark Malkin talked about Rob presenting at the Oscars, and the fact that Kristen’s attendance is still unconfirmed. He also mentioned that if she did come, she should smile a little bit. I can’t wait to see the Oscars and I really do hope Kristen comes as well. She deserves to be there, smile or no smile.

Our affiliate, Spunk-Ransom has managed to confirm that Rob will be singing 4 songs on the HOW TO BE soundtrack. Here is what they said on their website:

I can confirm that 4 tracks will have Robert singing and playing; his character in the film is a struggling musician, so they are songs he sings in the film itself.  This news will be officially announced shortly….

More good news regarding ‘HOW TO BE‘! (how much better can this get? I’m jumping up and down in excitement). The Soundtrack (which is a really big part of the movie) will be available for pre-order from Dreamboat Records from the 1st of March, 2009.  They also posted on their website that there will be exclusive surprises for Rob’s fans (wonder what it’s going to be…?). The soundtrack includes the movie’s original score by composer Joe Hastings and songs by Johnny White (the actor who played Ronny in the movie).

We’re really excited that HOW TO BE movie has found a distributor in the US! The distributor, IFC Films, has included the movie in their festival line up in April. Leading up to the release, HOW TO BE is going on a US Tour. Producer Justin Kelly, Director Oliver Irving, Mike Pearce (Nikki) and Johnny White (Ronny) will be attending several film festivals around the States to introduce the movie.

If you would like to see the movie here in Australia, don’t forget to visit the HOW TO BE Australia website to purchase tickets and receive updates. Tickets are still available and the screening will be held on Saturday, the 28th of March, at 7:00 pm.

To find out more about the screening dates in the States and more updates on the movie, please visit the Official HOW TO BE movie site.

We have just received some more good news in regards to the ‘Robert Pattinson Album‘ book!  The book’s rights have been bought by Five Mile Press and they will make sure that it will be available in Australia and New Zealand asap. Instead of buying from Amazon (and incurring that ridiculously huge amount of shipping costs) it’s defitinely worth waiting for this book to come out at a bookstore near you. We will update you with news on when and where you can get the book!

By the way, I just adore that ‘close-up’ picture of Rob, all in black. I can’t wait to see the rest of the pictures in this book.

The Official Little Ashes website has updated their site with 4 new teaser Clips from the movie.

Teaser Clip 5: Luis and Federico see Dali’s new look
Teaser Clip 6: Bicycle ride in Cadaques
Teaser Clip 7: Magdalena and Federico bump into an aloof Dali (the site say’s Luis instead, which is a mistake)
Teaser Clip 8: Federico Garcia Lorca visits the new Dali in Paris

As someone who has seen the movie (it’s a gorgeous movie, by the way…) I must say that my favourite teaser clip is the bicycle ride. It’s such a romantic scene!

To watch the clips, please Click Here to be directed to their official site. I can’t seem to embed the videos…but once they became available, I will update this post.

Enjoy!
