    I did enjoy this film. Robert Pattinson's acting was amazing, he was intense and I think he suited the role of Salvador Dali. I could feel the struggle and heartbreak that Salvador and Federico endured as the film went on. I thought it was fantastic! Well done.

    Visually beautiful and emotionally compelling. Beltran's portrayal of Lorca's vulnerability and Pattinson's remarkable portrayal of Dali's eccentricities reveal the depth of research these young actors did in order to deliver such sensitive performances.

    Don't listen to the critics. This film totally peaked my interest in Dal... Robert Patterson does quite well.

    Thanks to this movie was brilliant because Pattinson's performance give us dali that is pretty amusing, and we can see him in a very unexpectant way, but certainly does not goes off the role of the Spanish eccentric artist. The actings were incredibly fascinating. Overall, it was a good, mind-blowing movie.

    Pattinson should stop wasting his time on drivel like Twilight when he has performances like this in him. I could not disagree with the majority of the critics more; I found the film engaging and the ensemble cast excellent. Fact or fiction or somewhere in between, a film worth seeing.

    Lovely portrayal. Pattinson delivers nicely, I did not know what to expect was pleasantly surprised. Too much Twilight unfortunately overshadows this young sensitive actor.

  1. A typically bombastic lives-of-the-artists production made even more stilted by having all the actors (including the Spanish ones) speak accented English.
  2. I can't imagine what Dali or Buñuel would have made of such bourgeois sentimentality.

    Little Ashes is absorbing but not compelling. Most of its action is inward.
