Robert Pattinson worries that New Moon may be
too depressing for teen fans
As all Moms of teen Twilight fans know, the second movie in the Twilight series, New Moon will hit theaters on November 20. I have no problem with teens getting excited over the series: especially when they actually read the books first. I believe it has as much (if not more) to do with the first love angle as it does about vampires.
But what about New Moon? Actor Robert Pattinson (who plays Edward for those who live in caves or have no teen daughters) says he is a bit concerned at how Twilight teen fans will respond to New Moon up on the big screen. In his interview with Reuters Pattinson says, "The book of 'New Moon,' the majority of it is incredibly depressing. Obviously 'Twilight' was about finding first love and the difficulties of that, but 'New Moon' is really about loss and reconciliation, but the reconciliation isn't completely full." He then adds, "It's a strange story to have for a market that, I guess, wants to see a love story."
I don’t know how much of a problem it will be, Harry Potter made it through some rather dark tones without losing any fans. I have read New Moon and would suggest to all Mom’s of Twilight fans do so as well. Then you can talk about the book with your child and together, you can decide if it a movie she would want to see.
Personally, I think it is extremely important for parents to talk to their teens about how Bella reacts to Edward leaving in New Moon. The depth of her reaction is more like that of someone who has lost a spouse of many years and not that of someone they have known for a few months. Discussing how she could have, and should have, handled the situation may help them in their own relationships.
