Cronenberg on Rob: “I’ve directed some of the best in the world, and he’s terrific”

8 comments

Oh David we never doubted what you thought about Rob.  According to Marlow Stern from The Daily Beast:

“Another young actor whose acting ability has polarized critics is Twilight star Robert Pattinson, who stars as a millionaire enduring a limo-driven odyssey across Manhattan in Cronenberg’s next film—an adaptation of Don DeLillo’s novel Cosmopolis.

“I think that [skeptics] are being critical of the Twilight series; they’re not being critical of him,” says Cronenberg. “He’s just a cog in that machine and they’re confusing the nature of that project with him. He’s a terrific actor, trust me. I’ve directed some of the best in the world, and he’s terrific.”

Terrific – why yes he is.  If you want to read the full article on Cronenberg, just click on hyperlink above.

    Terrific! and I’m sure there’ll be a whole lot more more praise where that came from. And from the skeptics.
