their lives have changed in the very moment when the twilight saga fell into their hands. two simple guys who love their privacy, have become idols of thousands of fans. Seeking to win a place in the firmament of the great stars of Hollywood, to ask what had happened in the future, took to stay obsessed with the characters that gave them so much joy. robert feeling the fear of the public, directors or responsible for castings not see it as more than a vampire with a big heart. And we got to recognize it, the weight of the shadow of Edward is truly impressive! The English actor has some fear, which is normal. All the character of the saga twilight gave also can take him. When once asked who the interpreter role of Robert Pattinson in a film about his life, the actor replied ironically: “Ill do it myself, because iI probably will not be working after that.” A harsh response, but it is currently unlikely.

Ladies, catch your breath – in between his time sparkling as a vampire, R Patz returns to the screen in this romantic drama.

He’s Tyler, a rebellious student in New York in 2001, who’s got a strained relationship with his lawyer dad (an aloof and emotionally hard Pierce Brosnan) ever since his brother committed suicide.

Tyler is a bit of a closed book drifter, a one night stands kind of guy who won’t emotionally open up – but that all changes when a twist of fate brings him to Ally (Lost’s Emilie de Ravin).

Ally too is emotionally damaged – having seen her mom murdered on the subway when she was 11, she isn’t initially too keen to let Tyler into her life.

But the pair’s paths are intertwined and fate has a way of playing these things out.

Both Pattinson and de Ravin are perfectly cast in Remember Me, an aching, yearning film about love – there’s broodiness aplenty and inevitable family dramas and a sprinkling of The Taming of The Shrew – but what Remember Me does have is a way of subverting your expectations.

Sure it’s a clichéd relationship – Ally’s dad, a cop (the ever wonderful Chris Cooper) isn’t impressed and Tyler’s dad is emotionally stunted from the rest of the family – but it’s the central performances from de Ravin and Pattinson which give this film flight and takes it away from your usual brooding young love and aching hearts kind of film.

Granted there are familiar familial patterns playing out here – the family drama on all sides is nothing new and there’s more than a few predictable moments as the end approaches.

Some will argue Pattinson’s just putting in another brooding performance a la Edward Cullen (ie slightly aloof) but that’s unfair to RPatz – whose restrained screen presence gradually unpeels and reveals several layers. It’s clear he’s destined for a shelf life beyond the ole vamp, and thanks to de Ravin’s emotionally rich performance, the pair sizzle on screen.

But it’s the rich ending of Remember Me which emotionally shocks you by knocking the wind out of your cinematic sails – it’s unexpected, powerful and may well leave you agog. (But you won’t find me discussing it here).

Remember Me is an intriguing relationship drama which will have RPatz’s fans both drooling and more in love with him than ever before – but its ending will polarise the audience; however sometimes, that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

Remember Me will give viewers a wicked shock: Edward Cullen has a personality! Robert Pattinson, thus far so perilously trudging the road that would forever entomb him as Twilight’s marble-bodied, glittering-yet-dull va-va-vampire, is given permission to breathe in Allen Coulter’s romantic drama. And he’s charming. And witty. And, well, alive.

Pattinson’s charisma, along with that of his co-star, Lost’s Emilie de Ravin, elevate what could have been a dreary affair. There’s a genuine shock in the final minutes of Will Fetters’ debut script, a sucker-punch that is arguably unnecessary yet results in a finale most wrenchingly felt if it remains a surprise. Not that the story leading up to it is all roses. The film is predominantly about death—homicidal, suicidal, accidental. It’s about fractured families, depression, and listlessness, and how those cracks can draw people to one another in seach of soothing. Misery loves company, and all that.

Yet Remember Me is also about love, and before you roll your eyes, know that it’s one of those rare films that makes what could have come across as treacle and melodrama feel real. The film opens on a Brooklyn subway platform, where a woman is robbed and murdered in front of her young daughter. Ten years later, the girl, Ally (de Ravin), is a college student who lives a mostly peaceful existence with her police detective father (Chris Cooper) in Queens. We’re also introduced to Tyler (Pattinson), a classmate of Ally’s who is first shown rushing to a memorial service while smelling, as his little sister notes, “like Listerine and beer.” The gathering is for Tyler’s older brother, Michael, who’d killed himself six years ago. Along with his 11-year-old sister, Caroline (Ruby Jerins), the group includes their mother (Lena Olin), stepdad (Gregory Jbara), and icy Wall Street father (Pierce Brosnan).

A bit of convolution leads to Tyler and Ally meeting and falling in love. The setup is, admittedly, the clichéd cinematic lie of omission that will inevitably be revealed and result in plenty of door-slamming and sulking. There’s also the requisite wacky roommate, here Tyler’s (Tate Ellington), who serves as instigator, peacemaker, and source of comic relief. But Ellington’s Aiden is actually funny without being obnoxious, and the how of the central couple’s budding relationship is easily forgivable in light of its believable progression and the relaxed chemistry between the two leads.

Yes, this is all rather vague, but it’s more worthwhile to undersell the particulars of the story in favor of highlighting its strengths. Remember Me may theoretically dwell in the moribund, but in execution it’s tender, sweet, and appealing in its realistic, intimate portrayal of relationships both strained and smooth. De Ravin is luminous and offers a character who is independent, smart, and assuredly individual—in other words, a typical sorority-shunning college girl. Yet it’s Pattinson who’ll make you swoon. Disheveled handsomeness and effortless cool aside, his Tyler is simply a good guy, one who adores and encourages his artistically gifted little sister and fights for her when Dad or her classmates leave her feeling like an unloved outcast. He defends others, too—breaking up a fight and insisting that the innocent parties be let go gets him arrested—but the chain-smoking and often hot-tempered 21-year-old is no angel, either.

It’s this steady balance in the script (sometimes sad, sometimes joyful), characters (appealing but flawed), and relationships (butting heads with the ones you love) that makes Remember Me so impressive and, more important, enjoyable. It’s impossible to watch Tyler with Caroline or Ally without smiling. Twihards, at least those mature enough to get it, may be stunned seeing their dreamboat morphed into an actual person. The danger is that Team Edward will now expect more from him in the future, agreeing with Aiden when he scolds a sullen Tyler: “I’ve had enough of this brooding introvert shit.”

Aside from raking in billions in cash, the Twilight franchise has brought its three leads thriving acting careers. Taylor Lautner has become the highest-paid young actor in Hollywood seemingly overnight. Kristen Stewart will star as Joan Jett in a film due in April, and Robert Pattinson has earned enough clout to produce movies such as Remember Me for himself.

But Remember Me, which is more complex and ambitious than the formulaic romance its TV ads promise, is no mere star vehicle. Yes, there’s an element of vanity in Pattinson’s James Dean-ish turn as Tyler, an angst-filled New York City university student at odds with his powerful father (Pierce Brosnan). Tyler smokes cigarettes, quotes poetry, sits alone in diners scribbling in his notebook and runs his fingers through his hair.

Except that Allen Coulter, a recurring producer and director on HBO’s The Sopranos, has surrounded Pattinson with a stable of actors strong enough to force him into his A-game. Remember Me, which follows what happens after the emotionally wounded Tyler falls in love with Ally (Lost’s Emile de Ravin), a kindred spirit, allows him to display an emotional range he hadn’t shown in Twilight, whether he’s holding his own in a screaming match with Brosnan or being a doting older brother to his 11-year-old sister (Ruby Jerins).

Remember Me also features Lena Olin as Tyler’s mother and Chris Cooper as Ally’s widowed father, a cop desperately clinging to his daughter as if she were all he has left in the world. His character at times behaves in ways that seem conceived primarily to drive the story forward (the movie marks the debut of screenwriter Will Fetters). But there’s a distinctly bittersweet undertow to the picture that draws you in and helps you overlook the film’s weaknesses.

This is, at heart, a story about how people get on with their lives after overwhelming loss and learn to live with grief without succumbing to it. Tyler and Ally bond over family tragedy – his brother committed suicide; her mother was killed in a mugging. Pattinson and de Ravin don’t make a memorable happy couple – they’re better when they’re brooding – but, although their relationship is supposed to be a haven from sadness, happiness is an emotion the film has little use for.

To call Remember Me a four-hankie weeper does not begin to describe it, and its climax almost pulls us out of the movie by incorporating a real-life event into a story that had been, until then, built purely on glossy fiction. But Coulter wants to explore the act of mourning as a theme, and how death sometimes reminds us that every minute of life should be savored. On that level, Remember Me certainly succeeds.

Remember Me (**1/2 out of ****) opens in South Florida theaters on Friday, March 12.

‘Twilight’’s Rob Pattinson is headed back to the big screen in a romantic new role — and he tells “The Insider” all about filming love scenes!

Pattinson stars in the new drama, ‘Remember Me,’ and he says of filming love scenes with “Lost”’s Emilie de Ravin, “It’s always scary, I think much more scary for girls.”

But he says, “Emily’s just like completely comfortable in herself so it makes you feel more comfortable with yourself.”

Of choosing to do the film, he explains, “I read it in the summer after I just shot my first ‘Twilight’ film and [was planning] what to do next. … I read about 50 scripts and this one just stood out. It seemed completely different and I could hear the voice of the character.”

‘Remember Me,’ which hits theaters on March 12, follows two lovers who are coping with their family tragedies as their newfound love affair progresses. Pierce Brosnan co-stars

Confession Time – I was never a fan of Robert Pattinson. I am basing that assessment on the actor’s most famous role to date, the lovelorn vampire Edward in the “Twilight” films. I thought he delivered wooden performances in both movies.

But after watching Pattinson in the new film “Remember Me,” I can now honestly say, I’m intrigued by this actor. He carried the movie from its shaky start to its heart wrenching conclusion.

Unlike his “Twilight” co-star, Taylor Lautner, Pattinson is making brave career choices. While Lautner will soon be busy working on standard thrillers like “Abduction” or sure-fire blockbusters like “Stretch Armstrong,” Pattinson will bury himself in art-house films like “Bel Ami” and “”Water for Elephants.”

Taking a cue from Johnny Depp, Pattinson peppers his resume with iconic roles such as Edward, and memorable characters like the one he played in “Remember Me.” He stars as Tyler, a rebel with a cause who has serious daddy issues.

His father, Charles Hawkins (played perfectly by Pierce Brosnan), is a rich, powerful businessman who spends most of his time in the office and less with his family. After a tragedy separated the Hawkins, Tyler and his sister Caroline (the amazing Ruby Jerins), divide their time between their dad, and their newly-married mother (the underused Lena Olin).

Set in New York City in the summer of 2001, tragedy is at the center of “Remember Me.” In an unusual twist of fate, Tyler meets Ally (“Lost’s” Emilie de Ravin). She’s Tyler’s NYU classmate who’s also trying to cope with a tragic experience. Her father, played by Chris Cooper, is a protective cop from Queens who will do anything to keep his only daughter safe from harm.

In its simplest form, “Remember Me” features clichéd narrative about two lovers from opposite sides of the tracks. He’s from a wealthy family while she’s from a blue-collar background. But what sets this film apart is its unforeseen climax that you will remember for years to come.

Yes, the ending is commendable and director Allen Coulter (“Hollywoodland”) and screenwriter Will Fetters knew that their payoff would be talked about that all the necessary blocks were built around the finale, and gosh darn it, it worked! I just wished the filmmakers reached their conclusion quicker.

To be honest, the film could have benefited from some cuts. If the filmmakers excised unnecessary laborious scenes, especially the slow-building romantic angle in the beginning, “Remember Me” would have been a perfect movie.

One word of advice if you’re planning to see “Remember Me,” please avoid blogs, reviews, and reports revealing the film’s arc. You will enjoy the movie better if you walk into the theater without knowing anything about it.

But warts and all, I am recommending “Remember Me.” First, because of the 11-year-old actress Jerins, who stole acting thunder from Pattinson. There’s a scene in the film where her character experiences a tragedy while attending a pajama birthday party. In the hands of a less qualified actress, the scene would have been kitschy and corny, but Jerins showed deep understanding of her character.

Jerins is the heart of the film, and her scenes with Pattinson are vibrant and alive. As for Pattinson? It’s a pleasure to see the actor sans luminous vampire make-up. Pattinson blends well with all of his co-stars in the film. He’s a stubborn rebel when he’s around his dad, a loving boyfriend with Ally, and a caring older brother with his sister.

I’m also recommending “Remember Me” for its beautiful portrait of New York. The city becomes one of the film’s main characters. It’s a source of inspiration to some, and a hub of volatility to others.

As a whole, “Remember Me” is a heartwarming love story told against an unforgettable backdrop. It’s about loss, love, and redemption. Some people may find “Remember Me” too earnest, I call it profound. Trust me, the title will make so much sense after you’ve seen the film.

RATING:

“Remember Me” gets 3 out of 4 kisses

Robert Pattinson keeps a safe distance from the hype in a quest to prove his post-vampire cred, writes David Michael.

Pattinson’s reticence about being remembered is understandable, given the past 12 months of media coverage of the actor has been limited to the celebration of his good looks and the stardom afforded to him due to his portrayal of the lovelorn vampire Edward Cullen in the phenomenally successful Twilight film series.

For Pattinson, such adulation would fall short of a fitting epitaph. For him, fame is not the name of the game.

When S meets the 23-year-old in London, the shy-natured actor sports the distinct incognito combo of baseball cap and bushy beard. If it’s a little overkill in terms of diffusing his sex-symbol image, the practicality of being less recognisable to the rabid legions of teenage subscribers to the cult of “R-Patz” is understandable.
