Chris Weitz pratar om New Moon
USA Today har gjort en ganska stor artikel om varulvar på film, där de bland annat har pratat med Chris Weitz om New Moon. Chris pratar om skillnaden mellan vampyrer och varulvar och vad Edward och Jacob betyder för Bella.
" The backdrop of the Twilight books might be a gothic fantasy, but the filmmaker sees his characters as expressions of emotional attitudes shared by young people. “One of the great things of Stephenie Meyer’s novels is that she keeps them very grounded in the real world,” Weitz says.
“The vampires are about distance and reserve,” he says about the contrast between his male leads. “Edward represses his desire to do harm. Jacob is very warm and emotional, but also feels the heat of anger. When he transforms, it’s like losing your temper — sudden, explosive and lightning-quick.”
Where Bella is concerned, he adds, “Edward represents the unattainable perfection of first love. Jacob is friendship.“
