After Twilight, the world was at Robert Pattinson’s feet. However, rather than trying to scramble ever further up the Hollywood tree in search over ever-larger paycheques, he’s decided to favour interesting and unusual films, as well as ones that can challenge him. That trend continues with Good Time.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘Following the mind-bending HEAVEN KNOWS WHAT, celebrated filmmakers Josh and Benny Safdie return to the mean streets of New York City with GOOD TIME, a hypnotic crime thriller that explores with bracing immediacy the tragic sway of family and fate.
‘After a botched bank robbery lands his younger brother in prison, Constantine Nikas (Robert Pattinson) embarks on a twisted odyssey through the city’s underworld in an increasingly desperate—and dangerous—attempt to get his brother out of jail. Over the course of one adrenalized night, Constantine finds himself on a mad descent into violence and mayhem as he races against the clock to save his brother and himself, knowing their lives hang in the balance.
Anchored by a career-defining performance from Robert Pattinson, GOOD TIME is a psychotic symphony of propulsive intensity crafted by two of the most exciting young directors working today. Josh and Benny Safdie’s transcendent vision is an intoxicating portrait of desperation and destruction that will not be soon forgotten.’

It feel like we’ve been waiting eons for Life, the film about the meeting between James Dean very early in his career and life photographer Dennis Stock. However the movie is now on its way and the trailer has arrived.
Reviews were rather mixed for Werner Herzog’s Queen of the Desert at its first festival screenings, but the trailer suggests it will at least look good. And if you’ve ever wanted to see Robert Pattinson as Lawrence Of Arabia, this is your chance.
It’s taking a while to get the cast of Lost City Of Z cast together. A few months ago Robert Pattinson and Sienna Miller came onboard, joining Benedict Cumberbatch. However the Sherlock star’s Doctor Strange commitments have cause him to drop out and so he’s now being replaced by Charlie Hunnam, according to 
A lot of people have been enjoying the Ice Bucket Challenge (although there have inevitably been naysayers who seem determined to see a bad side of everything), and our earlier posts featuring a host of celebs getting wet in the name of charity have certainly been popular.
