"twilight" heartthrob robert pattinson is in town. >> he is in a costume drama set in late 19th century paris that tells the story of a poor man who sleeps and cheats his way to the top of society. pattinson play is a an ex- soldier who uses his looks and charm to seduce society duties to climb the social ladder. sounds familiar. it is the first venture into movies for the director, who said that the novel covering a corrupt government and a composite media is still relevant today. >> imagine that. all right, scott is across town for us at the film festival. what did you think of "bel ami?" >> i'm not really a fan of costume drama or of pattinson, not be a 14-will grow. for fans, you have a lot. he gets to look sexy and broody and where a lot of pretty costumes, so for them, i'm sure they will really enjoy the movie, but for me, i would rather put a stake in the old empire and move on. >> glad you're not on the jury for the golden bear, scott. can you hear me, scott? can you hear me? looks like we have lost scott. scott, are you with us, my friend? >> now i can hear again. >> ok, good.
