Sounds delicious. I would love to see this done well. It’s time for Pattinson to prove he possesses some chops.
Uma Thurman is great. But Nicole Kidman I think would have complemented Robert Pattinson more.
sounds great.
Tarantino´s Muse! It´s great
Wow…Uma Thurman. Great Actress, I really like her, but isn´t she a bit old to play the role of Madleine Forestier? When I read the book I thought she was younger…
But KST is perfekt for Madame Walter.
Nicole Kidman would have been a far better choice!!!
Uma is fine altho i would have preferred Nicole..doesn’t matter too much becus Rob would still be sizzling HOT! Wow, he is really going places! Big projects w/ big stars..I’m so glad for him! The man is on a roll! Woohoo!
