Bel Ami hits UK cinemas today and our friends from Upbeat got to chat with two of the stars from the movie, Robert Pattinson and Christina Ricci. The film is directed by Declan Donnellan, Nick Ormerod and it also stars Kristin Scott Thomas, Uma Thurman, Natalia Tena and Colm Meaney.
Unfortunately we didn’t especially love the movie and you can see our review of it here. If you’ve seen the film, please let us know what you thought of it in the comments section below.
Bel Ami is the story of Georges Duroy (Pattinson), who travels through 1890s Paris, from cockroach ridden garrets to opulent salons, using his wits and powers of seduction to rise from poverty to wealth, from a prostitute’s embrace to passionate trysts with wealthy beauties, in a world where politics and media jostle for influence, where sex is power and celebrity an obsession.
