Little Ashes

I recently saw Little Ashes. The film came out two years ago and focuses on the early relationship between Federico Garcia Lorca and Salvador Dali. The performances by Javier Beltran, Robert Pattinson, and Marina Gatell were all pretty good, but something simply did not ring true for me.

I thought that this film was interesting, but is definitely not a must-see. That said, I would recommend this film to any one who is a fan of or is interested in Federico Garcia Lorca, Salvador Dali, or Luis Bunuel.

Dream Cast Thursday! Twilight

For this week's "Dream Cast Thursday," I will be recasting Twilight. The original cast includes: Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart), Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), Alice Cullen (Ashley Greene), Rosalie Hale (Nikki Reed), Jasper Hale (Jackson Rathbone), Emmett Cullen (Kellan Lutz), Dr. Carlisle Cullen (Peter Facinelli), Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner), Esme Cullen (Elizabeth Reaser)

My recasting includes: Bella Swan (Emmy Rossum), Edward Cullen (James Franco), Alice Cullen (Natalie Portman), Rosalie Hale (Amber Heard), Jasper Hale (Trent Ford), Emmett Cullen (Channing Tatum), Dr. Carlisle Cullen (Jason Lewis), Jacob Black (Steven Strait), and Esme Cullen (Rachel Weisz).











It was really hard trying to find the right Edward. I know that James Franco might not be the obvious choice for a seventeen year old looking vampire, but when I saw the above picture from SNL, it seemed really right.
