Twilight - In Theaters

(bumped up from it's original
December date!) Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) has always been a
bit different, never caring about or fitting in with the
trendy girls at her Phoenix, Arizona high school. When
her mother remarries and decides to move with her new
husband to Florida, and Bella decides to go live with
her father, Charlie (Billy Burke), in the rainy little
town of Forks, Washington, she doesn't expect anything
to change. Then she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly
beautiful Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), a boy unlike
any she's ever met. Intelligent and witty, his piercing
eyes see straight into her soul. Soon, Bella and Edward
are swept up in a passionate and decidedly unorthodox
romance. Edward can run faster than any cheetah, he can
stop a moving car with his bare hands, and he hasn't
aged since 1918. Most importantly, he's a vampire. Like
all vampires, he's immortal. But he doesn't have fangs,
and he doesn't drink human blood (they're vampire
"vegetarians"), which is rare among the vampire
population. Instead, they go on regular "hiking" trips,
where they feed on prey such as grizzly bears and
mountain lions. For Edward, Bella is the thing he has
waited ninety years for - a soul mate. But the closer
they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the
primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an
uncontrollable frenzy. And what will they do when James
(Cam Gigandet), Laurent (Edi Gathegi), and Victoria
(Rachel Lefevre) come into town and James sets his
sights on Bella? Will true love prevail when Edward is
forced to save her life and conquer his thirst? |
