While in Berlin, Robert Pattinson and his Bel Ami co-star Christina Ricci attended the photo call for their film before participating in a press conference. Robert Pattinson wore a black jacket with the Chinese character for good luck, an appropriate sentiment since Bel Ami had its world premiere at the prestigious Berlin Film Festival on 17 February 2012.
When Robert Pattinson was asked regarding the responsibility of attracting the Twilight audience to Bel Ami, where he plays a character who seduces and uses women, his answer reminded me of something that I’ve written about before: my penchance to watch movies I normally wouldn’t watch but I end up doing so because of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. MTV reports.
“I guess my responsibility, I think, it’s not necessarily to give anything back other than try and do the best work you can. You get an audience for doing certain jobs, so I think the biggest disservice you can do to your audience is trying to repeat the same thing and to come just to get money or whatever,” he said. “If a ‘Twilight’ audience would come watch ‘Bel Ami,’ it’s a movie that I wouldn’t have thought that audience would go to, so I think that in some way, it’s kind of doing a service to someone. I felt like I learned a lot from it.”
