Hot Pick from TAB - Twilight

Directed by: Catherine Hardwicke
Genre: Fantasy/Thriller
Rated: PG-13

The first book in the Twilight saga has been transformed into a feature film starring Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart as Edward and Bella. The movie follows Stephenie Meyer’s star-crossed lovers as they discover their indescribable bond and feeling for one another. Their relationship is complicated: Edward is conflicted, torn between his desire for Bella’s love and her blood, while Bella is so “unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him” that she would go so far as to die for him. But Twilight isn’t just another chick flick; the action scenes in this movie are sudden and suspenseful. The only issue I had with Twilight the movie was that it did not follow the book extremely well; some important details were changed or simply left out. However, the chemistry between the characters in undeniable, making this an overall good flick. Check it out if you want to watch a unique love story that is completely different from anything else you might have imagined.
