Review of Little Ashes (2008) by Livon Y — 02 Jan 2010
Ok I admit to having obtained a copy of this only because I found it on Robert Pattinson's IMDB page (I do this with all good actors though!) - although I still would have watched it had I know it existed.
Am a big fan of DalÃ's work and did a mini-project on his life and work whilst on Erasmus in Madrid in 2008. Frankly, I was blown away by the performances in this. Javier Beltran is brilliant and Rob Pattinson really showcases his ability as a serious actor in it (for all those Twilight sceptics) - his Dalà is completely nuts! and probably very accurate.
Its also a brave choice for any young actor. The storyline is funny, sad, bizarre, and downright uncomfortable to watch in parts. Its a piece of art.
