While Robert Pattinson’s recent star power at the hands of Twilight is certainly going to up the profile of Little Ashes I don’t see it ultimately doing any kind of considerable business, but that shouldn’t stop the new found Pattinson fans from going into orgiastic convulsions as their favorite vampire lover puts on a fancy pants mustache and gets all artistic as Salvador Dali.
The trailer for the film has just debuted over at Yahoo and it looks decent enough, but I can’t say I have any interest in it. The story follows the eccentric artist Salvador Dalà and renowned poet and revolutionary Federico GarcÃa Lorca as they find their artistic and sexual freedom in each other. Set prior to the Spanish Civil War and shot on location in Spain the feature is sure to include a dabble of political and moral conundrums, but I remain disinterested.
Give the trailer a peek below or click here to watch it in high-definition. I also have a gallery of 24 pictures from the film right here if you are interested. Little Ashes hits theaters on Friday, March 27, 2009.
