When I heard that Robert Pattinson, you know, one of the loves of my life, was going to be portraying Salvador Dali in the film “Little Ashes” I was extremely excited, yet I KNEW that it would be controversial to say the least. Simply because so many,that had no insight into Salvador’s genius, would let the choice of his lover, which should strictly be HIS business, tarnish their opinion of him. However, so far, the kissing and love scenes that we have been privileged enough to get a sneak peak of, have been raved about. Everyone thinks that it’s sexy, and hot, though it’s surprising, it makes me have hope that at least some will be able to walk away from this movie a bit more aware of one of the most brilliant Surrealist artists of all time, in my opinion. I’m sure a lot of it is that Robert Pattinson is SO hot, so sexy, that we would watch him in almost anything, including but not limited to infomercials with Billy Mays and not turn the channel, but instead hang on his every word and drool. I’ll take art education for the masses, any way I can get it. *Grin* And so, you should really check out this video along with me, prepare your bib *wink*

For those that Don’t know much of him, Dali’s most famous, and beloved piece by most is Persistence Of Memory . It is simply fascinating, he often described his art as`hand-painted dream photographs’, I couldn’t agree more. He wasn’t just a painter though, he was also a sculptor, graphic artist, and designer who was wise in words beyond his years, and time. One of my favorite quotes, that could not be more truthful, he uttered. “Intelligence without ambition is a bird without wings.”
I know that Robert Pattinson isn’t exactly thrilled with this movie, as I’ve read in GQ , but I cannot wait to watch it. It combines art, taboo love, genius, and of course Robert Pattinson all in one film. I couldn’t be any happier, unless someone hand delivered Rob to my door. *Sigh*
