NEW ROB INTERVIEW WITH TORONTO.COM

CANNES, FRANCE—Robert Pattinson swears he can tell how people are enjoying his movies by how many coughs he hears from the audience.

He employed this unique gauge at the May 25 Cannes Film Festival world premiere of Cosmopolis, his new movie directed by David Cronenberg.

“I watched it at the screening last night, but I wasn’t even watching,” Pattinson, 26, tells a roundtable of journalists.

“I was just listening for every cough: Please don’t cough! Please don’t cough!”

He seems awfully nervous for one so successful. He’s the lead star of the Twilight franchise, playing moody vampire Edward Cullen, a role that has made him famous and rich. Pattinson also had a small role in another big film, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

He’s neither new at this game nor naïve. Could he really suffer from self-doubt?

“Oh, completely,” he says, sucking on a lollipop for sustenance.

“I want that the whole time. Even for this screening. I was pissed off about everything, completely worried, incredibly stressful thing. But my manager was like, ‘You’re not happy at all?’ No, no, people are all coughing! They’re coughing because they’re bored!

“It’s f---ing crazy. Coughing! It’s all I can think about. But I like that. You’ve got to burn. As soon as you start thinking you’re good, you’re s--t. So yeah, it’s an annoying way to live, but yeah.”

ROB'S INTERVIEW WITH CINETELEREVUE - BELGIUM

 The interview was done during Cannes. The interviewer precises that Rob was eating a lollipop.


In the movie, you get your prostate checked? Is yours asymmetrical too?
Rob: *laughs* I haven't checked that yet! Everybody talks about it, it's crazy how that line marked people.

Did you feel up to the task to take on this role?
Rob: When David Cronenberg called me I was in the middle of shooting Breaking Dawn. There were only three weeks left. As soon as I got home, I pounced on the script and read it in one sitting, in one night. It was really strong, complex and freaky but so funny!

Your character speaks all the time, weren't you scared?
Rob: The risk of failure was huge. At first, I told David I didn't feel ready for the challenge. There was too much pressure, but he convinced me. Even though he knew I didn't understand anything from the script. *laughs*

What didn't you get?
Rob: For Cronenberg, everything made sense. The fact that I didn't understand didn't bother him. He was more concerned about my performance. The world of finance means nothing to me. It conceals an absurd distortion of power struggles. But it's not the end of the world, it's a rebirth because this world needs sometimes to be cleansed and purified.

Your character tries to escape from himself. Since you became famous - and with all these paparazzi hanging on to your coat-tails - are you experiencing the same thing?
Rob: I try not to think about it, I only do my job. I stay cautious about all of this but it's still weird. It's like speaking in your sleep. Cosmopolis is a challenging movie that will open doors for me to new projects. I am very pleased. Saying that though, I can't compare this with my private life even if I feel completely claustrophobic.

Are you relieved that Twilight is over now and that you can now move on to something else?
Rob: I will never disown Twilight. It was my job security. I'll never try to find excuses. The advantage now is that directors think differently. As an actor, it's something you've always dreamed about.

Lots of people think it's because of Twilight that you're pushed to do more diarist and intellectual movies ...
Rob: I did little movies before Twilight. People only notice you when they feel like it. It depends from one type of audience from another. I 'acted' too in Twilight. It was a beautiful period in my life but now it's time to turn the page.

Are you still offered heartthrob's roles?
Rob: It's not always easy to play heartthrob. You need to be extremely confident or be completely oblivious to what people think of you. I like to keep my integrity as an actor.

Did you see 'On the Road' in which your girlfriend, Kristen Stewart, has a role?
Rob: Yes and it's sort of weird to see her like this. To have people clapping for you at Cannes, a Festival that's a little crazy and with so many people, is funny. We might expect those kind of reactions but always end up being surprised.

Did you become up professional opponents?
Rob: No, never. For a year now we both had the chance to evolve in the job we love, especially in those amazing movie projects. Kristen is really ambitious. She knows how to find good scripts, she has the nose for that. I admire her.
We wanted people to respect and understand our choices. During the Cosmopolis screening at Cannes, I was a nervous wreck. I was looking in front of me, behind me, trying to guess people's reactions. I was trying to listen for whispers. And in the end, I missed half the movie. *laughs* At the after party that followed, I was even more terrified at the prospect of having to face people's comments.

Will you be in a movie together after Twilight?
Rob: Yes, absolutely. We're trying to write a script together. It won't be for now but we've thought about it for a long time. The filming of the last two movies was long and difficult.My character doesn't change, he can't die. We finish on a high note.

MORE FROM KRISTEN'S SYNDICATED INTERVIEW FROM CANNES

Indiewire Kristen Stewart is a long-time fan of the book, and it inspired her to write herself. 
Although she’s nearly 40 years younger than Jack Kerouac’s book (which was written in 1951, but not published for another six years), Kristen Stewart is a longtime fan. The novel also helped introduce her to a wider range of authors. “I read it when I was 14,” the actress said. “I had read some Burroughs, I had tried to read ‘Naked Lunch,’ it didn’t get inside me as much as ‘On the Road’ did. I read Ginsberg’s stuff. It opened a lot of doors to different writers. Like, Henry Miller is not a part of the [beat generation], but he’s one of my favorite writers and I only know about him through these people.” Indeed, her reading of Kerouac and co inspired her to do some writing of her own, something she hopes to return to one day.“I wrote when I was younger. But I have such an outlet now, it’s not a compulsion and I don’t want to force it. I’m not a storyteller, it was really about words and what they could do. I’ll get back to it, I’m sure.”

Stewart became particularly attached to the ’49 Hudson in which so much of the film is set.


Every road movie needs a great car, and luckily there was one already specified in the book — the ’49 Hudson owned by Neal Cassady (the inspiration for Hedlund’s character Dean Moriarty). And given that so many of her scenes took place in or around the car, it’s unsurprising that the actress felt it to be part of the cast by the time the movie wrapped. “It’s so comfortable in there. Road trips now are not the same because our cars are not the same. It’s like a room. By the end of the movie, my last scene was in the Hudson, and I can’t even describe to you what it was like to get out of it and know that I wasn’t going to get back in. It was horrible,” she said. “My last scene was one quick shot in a rearview mirror, right before we got dumped in San Francisco. It’s perfect that it was my last scene as well, because you know it’s coming. And there’s this awesome picture that I will cherish for the rest of my life of me and Walter and Sam standing in the middle of the road, right after they called wrap and I definitely just wiped a full face of tears off. It so captures that moment because now I’m on my own road.”
