Light spoilers forThe King including the fate of Robert Pattinsons character below.
Casting Timothee Chalamet and Robert Pattinson in a movie the very same movie!
can only be understood as a targeted attack.
A movie withtworazor-sharp jaws; two tall, lanky boys; two alabaster complexions.
He is a supporting character.
He doesnt appear in the movie until an hour in.
It was very, very important to me that when he did appear it was with razzle-dazzle.
Robert Pattinson twirls and pirouettes on top of the (capitalV,capitalS) Very SeriousKing.
Let everyone else scheme and scowl; the Dauphin knows he hasto do it toem.
There are all these kind of rugged men, and Im in this little frilly frock.
True,The Kingis extremely full of dudes, and many of them are sinewy and strong.
Hal and his crew that crew being the English army travel to fight the French.
One night, the two kings meet in Dauphins tent.
Until this point,The Kinghas given us scene after scene of torment and backstabbing.
When the Dauphin arrives, the king can deflate, if only a little.
Pattinson holds his two fists together.
he says to the younger king.
He pokes out his thumb and wiggles it around.
And a tiny little penis!
Conceptually, alone, were on an upswing.
Thats cinema, baby!
Pattinsons razzle-dazzle is the only way this would work.
Any other actor would wrestle with the French accent and maybe trip over it.
Its almost like Natalie Portmans Texas accent inLucy in the Sky, or Daniel Craigs drawl forLogan Lucky.
Do I love it?
Do I hate it?
