Movie Dialogue

 (Bella stands amid the trees, waiting. Then the sounds of the forest abruptly drop out. A predator is near. Edward appears behind her. She doesn't turn around. )

Bella: You're impossibly fast and strong. Your skin is pale-white, ice-cold. Your eyes change color. And sometimes you speak like... you're from a different time.

 (She turns to face him now.)

 Bella: You never eat food, or drink, or come out in the sunlight. And you said no to the beach trip only after you heard where it was. Because of the treaty.

 (This last registers with him. She steps closer to him.

 Bella: How old are you?

 Edward: Seventeen.

 Bella: How long have you been seventeen?

 (He sees he can't hide anymore. Honesty is an enormous risk, but he has to take it.)

 Edward: ... A while.

(She inhales. She knew, but it's still shocking. )

 Bella: I know what the Cold Ones are. What you are.

 Edward: Say it. Out loud. Say it.

 (All sound suddenly drops out. We hear only her whisper.)

 Bella: ... Vampire.

 



Reviews

 “As a fan of books one through three in the Twilight series, I came in with certain expectations. Were they met? Yes, for the most part. Better effects would make this an easy film to recommend to anyone who's picked up the book, or to anyone looking to escape into a world of teenagers (okay, so one's not technically still in his teens) falling in love for the very first time.”

 By Rebecca Murray

“For a non-fan, it was really a pretty bland film. It seemed very slow-moving at times, and let’s face it -- it’s a pretty “stock” teen romance movie. There wasn’t anything really special here outside of the fact that it had, you know… vampires.”

By Vic Holtreman
