Robert Pattinson: RPAU Week in Review 13 to 19 June 2016
 
Let me again thank the Sydney Film Festival and Nashen Moodley for the opportunity of seeing Robert Pattinson “The Childhood of a Leader” on the big screen. I hope it finds an Australian distributor because you need to experience this film in the cinema – don’t think home cinema will do the soundtrack justice.  Let’s see what else has happened this week. LIFE:  I tweeted a reminder that the film can now be seen in The Netherlands on Film1 – it looks like until June 2017.  Paris Filmes also confirmed that the release date for Brazil is 21 July not 7 July as previously stated. We had posted about this change of date back in May, but it’s nice to see it confirmed by the actual distributor. How great are those photos that @ibabysky found on Rene Teichmann’s Facebook from the Berlinale red carpet. I love gems like that being unearthed. THE CHILDHOOD OF A LEADER:  Vertigo and I saw it – can’t believe it. We also caught up with @deesoonz, Carmel and Sue – which was very nice. I’ve done a write up about my thoughts on the film and have created a discussion post.  I’ve also updated the reviews because there’s been some great ones coming out of the Sydney Film Festival like “ I was blown away by this film. The confidence in the craft, the ambition and the willingness to take chances, to be surreal and provocative. One of my favourite cinema experiences of the year.” I added links and ticket info for the Munich Film Festival. There are a few “must see” lists that include this film. I also tweeted a link to a French interview with Brady for those interested. Portugal finally has a release date for the film – 17 November it is. Thanks @justoneofus1 for letting us know. I updated the BAMCinemaFest post as there is now a Q&A with Brady Corbet at that 23 June screening. and I also updated the Edinburgh Film Festival as Brady is doing an introduction to the film and a Q&A post screening.  The festival also interviewed Brady ahead of the premiere on 18 June. Page58 decided Jules’ wallpaper was good to use, shame they removed our watermark lol. If you are interested in Brady’s Masterclass that was recently at CEFilmFestival you can head over to Pattinson Art Work who attended and filmed the event – they’ve also reviewed the film. DIOR  The magazine is out. It’s moments like this that I wish I was a slave to fashion and also a loyal Dior customer.  Deep pockets would help too. And how great was it to see Robert at the A$AP Rocky and JW Anderson afterparty – I love pictures that show us Robert’s gorgeous smile. QUEEN OF THE DESERT:  I updated the reviews as expected with the release in Portugal. I also came across a slightly different trailer and realised it was being screened on India Safari TV.  HIGH LIFE: Looks like Poland has decided to assisting in financing and shooting locations. I have update the post a couple of times as I came across articles the last one giving us confirmation of the actual budget of the film. IN OTHER NEWS:  It was a tease to wake up on Tuesday morning to that photo of Robert with Gary Michael Walters. I hope they are indeed working on ideas together because Gary has executive produced some of my recent favourites – Drive, Nightcrawler and one that’s on my “to see list” – Whiplash.  Of course it could be Robert that is brainstorming and not something that Gary is already lining up to work on.  Time will tell I guess. Posh spoilt us this week with a new video of Robert on TF1 France from 2009 and that fabulous UHQ photo of Robert with Katie Leung from 2005. Love love love them both. Thank you Posh.  As we head into next week with the North American premiere of The Childhood of a Leader at BAMCinemaFest I wonder what else will unfold.  Until then …
