wanting to make the audience feel “complicit” with Connie

Sean, the director of photography who is big size guy, 7 inches taller than him, being so nimble to squeeze in the shower with him (in a scene) and constantly having his face in close up shots

being attracted to things which are audacious. “..Little bit iffy, immature, provocateur, pushing the line” type of character .

Connie, who has no conventional feelings or desire, and is asexual. 

wanting the rest of the cast to feel he was also street casted

~ Transcript from 2:23 where Rob talked about his career decisions and Twilight.~

S.Ahmed: You recently won the Maverick award at the Savannah Film Festival because of the roles you chose. Which suggests a kind of a successful career plan...as such...

Rob: There was sort of a vague plan. I like doing things that’s scary. I got lucky in that. A lot of people when I was doing Twilight said that, everyone asked if I was scared of being typecast, well I was never consciously scared of it, but I guess in the back of my mind, there is something which is kind of… you know you don’t want to end up pigeonholed. So I want to do completely the opposite thing, every single time.

S. Ahmed: Can I ask how you look back on those films?

Rob: I mean it was all a great experience for me. I think a lot of people who got into big franchise stuff ended up being really burned by it. And disheartened. But, I had a really great experience all the time.  Yeah moments kind of stressed and pressure but really it was a young studio making it, I liked everyone that I was working with, and it hasn’t stopped me from doing anything I don’t want to do. So this is pretty much… no downside at all (*laughs). It was really fun. I like the movies, and also I approached them exactly as I approach everything I am doing now. I think people think that if you are doing a movie that ended up being commercial, you would think differently about it. But I have actually approached everything exactly the same way.

S. Ahmed: Very level-headed Robert Pattinson.

wanting to make the audience feel “complicit” with Connie

Sean, the director of photography who is big size guy, 7 inches taller than him, being so nimble to squeeze in the shower with him (in a scene which was cut) and constantly having his face in close up shots

being attracted to things which are audacious. “..Little bit iffy, immature, provocateur energy” type of character.

Connie, who has no conventional feelings or desire, and is kind of asexual person.  

wanting the rest of the cast to feel he was also street casted

career choices for people who have associated themselves with a brand for e.g. Daniel Radcliff for Harry Potter

going after the directors he wanted to work with over the last 5 or 6 years (other than Cronenberg)
