    • Trivia
      Robert Pattinson admitted in German magazine "Interview" that he masturbated for real during the sex scene, because he found it impossible to fake an orgasm and the reactions of the body and face during that moment. When asked why he didn't just fake it for the camera Robert shared, "[It} just doesn't work, so I pleasured myself in front of the camera."
    • Quotes

      Salvador Dalí: If I'm going to be anything more than average, if anyone's going to remember me, then I need to go further in everything: in art, in life, in everything they think is real: morality, immorality, good, bad, I, we, have to smash that to pieces, we have to go beyond that, we have to be brave. no limit.

    The critics are WRONG!

    Don't always believe what the critics say. I have no explanation as to why some critics gave Little Ashes bad reviews other than it just wasn't your typical movie and they couldn't understand that.

    This movie tells a beautiful and fascinating story (read the synopsis beforehand it helps).

    The acting is excellent.

    The accents sound/are authentic (when Dali sounds American or French that is done intentionally from what i hear.) oh, and it's an INDEPENDENT FILM! aka it's not necessarily going to be like every other dramatic film out there.

    Go into it with an OPEN MIND. If you enjoy the previews you will probably enjoy the movie.

    Go see it and form your own opinion. This movie is great but it isn't for everyone.
