Twilight the movie

July 25th, 2009

twilight-bookTwilight the movie became one of the year 2008’s most anticipated movies. Since the Harry Potter franchise, never before has a book to movie adaptation made a killing in the box office. The 2008 movie is an adaptation of a novel released in 2005 by Stephenie Meyer. The movie, directed by Catherine Hardwicke, as in the book, follows the life of Isabella “Bella” Swan (played by Kristen Stewart), an ordinary teenager girl, and the eventual love story between her and a vampire, Edward Cullen (played by Robert Pattinson)

Twilight the movie took 44 days to film. By May 2, 2008, the film was done. Hardwicke, who debuted in filmmaking via the art house teenage drama thirteen, worked with hand-held cameras to maintain a “real” feel of the film. During filming, the cast members who played vampire roles were asked to refrain from exposing themselves to sunlight so that they would look pale and appear credible as vampires. Golden and black contact lenses were also furnished for the vampire cast to maintain the “look” as described by the book. Lastly, aside from the usual line and script-reading rehearsals, sessions with a dance choreographer were also done to make sure the actors who played vampires moved in a feline manner as what was described in the book.

Now, a personal note to all you Twilighters out there - send each other an e-card for whatever reason you want - there're free to send!

Bella Swan

June 24th, 2009

At the start of Twilight we see that 17 year old Bella Swan has moved to dreary, rainy Forks from bright, sunny Arizona. Mainly because she wanted her mother to have some time to move around with her new husband, Phil who travels a lot due to his profession as a baseball player. Bella's parents divorced when she was only six months old, her mother took her to live in Phoenix, Arizona. Bella does mention not fitting in well at her school in Phoenix and had few friends and no boyfriends.

At Forks High School, she is more sought after by some of the guys, however she sees pale skinned gorgeous Edward Cullen and an attraction develops. Although Bella feels her looks are average and nondescript Edward is also attracted to her. However, she is a 'singer' which means that the scent of her blood is particularly tantalizing to him, so although Edward does not drink human blood, he has an extremely difficult battle with himself to resist her and thus warns her throughout Twilight to keep away from him as he is a danger to her.

Bella is very perceptive and notices the many weird things about Edward that might escape someone less perceptive, Edward sometimes finds this a bit annoying. Even the colour of his eyes which change according to how 'hungry' he is, is noticed by Bella thus she mentions that she thinks he has contact lenses. Another thing that Edward finds strange is that his 'mind reading abilities' don't work on Bella so he never knows what she is thinking and finds this intriguing.

Despite the many difficulties of the human & vampire relationship they manage to fall in love and care very deeply for each other. Even when the sadistic tracker vampire James tricks Bella into being alone with him and then attacks her, indeed managing to bite and infect her with vampire venom, Edward makes the decision to save her and thus manages to exercise extreme control and suck the venom out of her bloodstream without killing her!

I invite more comments on what you think about Bella Swan and what characteristics you like or dislike about her, please leave your comments below.

Twilight Edward Cullen

June 23rd, 2009

Twilight Edward Cullen played by Robert Pattison.  Edward Cullen was born 20 June 1901 in  Chicago, Illinois.  How did his 'vampire status' happen?  He contracted the Spanish flu in  1918, at only 17 years old (and as he says in the film to Bella, he has been 17 'for some  time') thus is literally at death's door, the only alternative to death is to be transformed into a vampire, this is done by Carlisle Cullen, his adoptive father. 

Edward's family  in the Twilight series is Carlisle and Esme Cullen along with several adopted siblings.  Could Carlisle have been following Edward's mother direction as before she died (also of the Spanish flu, as did Edward's father) she asked her physician - Dr Carlisle Cullen - to do 'everything in his power to save her son'?  The story goes that Carlisle acted on this direction, thus when Edward was near death he took Edward from the hospital to his home and changed him into a vampire.

Edward was very rebellious at the beginning of his vampire life and decided against 
'vegetarianism' and felt justified using his mind reading abilities to attack the worst 
people of society.  However, he later reformed and turned this around to adopt Carlisle's  lifestyle who used animals' blood, not humans' as their source of food.

Edward was literally the only member of his family without a mate and was known to his  family as being quite sullen, maybe even slightly depressed.  However, this all changed when he met Bella..... 

so the saga continues in New Moon - release date

20th November 2009!
