Not Dali
PostedMay 11, 2009

from New York City
This is not a movie about Salvidor Dali, but a film about Federico Garcia Lorca. Trust me when I say this is good news.
It is however, a film about a producer that booked an actor before making a tween film called Twilight and how this helped market his movie more than he could have ever hoped for.
Javier Beltran gives a layered, deeply present performance, while poor Pattinson is having to play an underwritten Dali without the depth to fill in the holes.
It's not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I left the theater loving and wanting to know more about Federico Garcia Lorca while caring nothing about Dali.
It's a film about Lorca that is given a heart and soul by Javier Beltran. Bravo, Mr. Beltran.

Yes, I recommend this movie.
