I]Twilight[/I] staring Robert Pattinson(Edward Cullen) and Kirsten Stewart (Bella - don't call me Isabella- Swan) is one of the best truely sexy, vampire movies I have seen in a long time.
It is very difficult to discuss the plot of the movie without throwing spoilers out all over the place so I am going to avoid it. Part of the charm of the thing is just how misleading the trailers are. I don't think I have ruined anything but saying that ... at least I hope I haven't. It is about being an outsider and finding your place in a world where you feel you don't belong, as well as many far more interesting themes.
This is a movie for the ladies and if you look closely you will see little plot points stolen from you other favourite vampire movies like Interview With The Vampire] as well a few others but when they do it in a movie it is called intertextuality. They say there are no new stories out there anymore. There are new ways of telling them though and that is what is happening here. You will fall in love with the vampire. Even if you never thought it possible.
