Robert Pattinson's 'Ashes,' Kristen Stewart's 'Adventureland' to open same day!

Littleashes Here's the latest buzz on Regent Releasing's "Little Ashes," Robert Pattinson's new film that opens March 27.

Coincidentally, that's the same day his "Twilight" costar Kristen Stewart's new indie comedy, "Adventureland," opens.

Which movie will you go see first? I think I can guess.

But this really is movie-marketing crossover genius. Now the "Twilight" stars can promote both their new films AND their new joint movie, "New Moon," which they will be shooting.

Ladies and gents, we have a win-win-win situation.

Inside word is there may be only an East Coast "Ashes" premiere, in New York, due to Pattinson's sked.

The "Ashes" press day will definitely be in New York, but no date has been set yet, according to a publicist.

And "Ashes" is also being set to show at the EFM in Berlin by its new international distributor, Regent Worldwide.

However, no talent will be there.

Sorry, Berlin Robert Pattinson fans.

According to Mark Reinhart, Regent's general manager and executive vice president of distribution and acquisition, " 'Little Ashes' story, beauty and the amazing chemistry between Beltrán, Pattinson and McNulty make for an impressive trio that will touch the hearts of audiences around the world."

Keep reading for more pix and the film's official synopsis:

In the midst of the repression and political unrest of pre-Spanish Civil War, eccentric artist Salvador Dalí and renowned poet and revolutionary Federico García Lorca find their artistic and sexual freedom. The two form a bond challenged by their fierce ambitions, their friends, the struggle between a love for Spain and a love for each other.

Littleashesheader1_2 In 1922, Madrid is wavering on the edge of change as traditional values are challenged by the dangerous new influences of jazz, Freud and the avant-garde. Salvador Dalí arrives at university at the age of 18, determined to become a great artist.

His bizarre blend of shyness and rampant exhibitionism attracts the attention of two of the university's social elite -- Federico García Lorca and Luis Buñuel.  Salvador is absorbed into their decadent group and for a time Salvador, Luis and Federico become a formidable trio, the most ultra-modern group in Madrid.

However, as time passes, Salvador feels an increasingly strong pull toward the charismatic Federico -- who is oblivious to the attention he is getting from his beautiful writer friend, Magdalena.  Finally, in the face of his friends' preoccupations -- and Federico's growing renown as a poet -- Luis sets off for Paris in search of his own artistic success.  Federico and Salvador spend the holiday in the seaside town of Cadaqués.

Both the idyllic surroundings and the warmth of the Dalí family sweep Federico off his feet. Salvador and he draw closer, sharing their deepest beliefs, inspirations and secrets, convinced that they have found a kind of friendship undreamt of by others. It is more than a meeting of the minds; it is a fusion of souls.

RT: 112 - 35mm film, color, English
Rated R for sexual content, language and a brief disturbing image..

Unchienandalouposter Whoa, a brief disturbing image?

They may be talking about the razor bladed eye in Luis Bunuel's in "Un Chien Andalou."

I'm sorry, but I just don't think either movie really looks that good.

Both movies look really good. I've seen KStew in a couple movies, but not a the big screen. And RPattz! I bet he is going to be amazing. Can't wait to see both of them. I'll probably go see them both in the same day, it'll be a good mix.

i'm looking forward to seeing both- it'll be good to hear about movies other than twilight for a little while (VERY little while!)

is that a PR ploy that they open on the same day? kinda crazy, huh? i don't believe in coincidences in hollywood!

Haha. When I first saw this I just go, 'Awww. That's cuuute!' I can't see 'Little Ashes' until it's out on DVD. Not seventeen, rated R. :P

I'm not sure what 'Adventureland' is rated.. but that's a SEEING ITT. I heard Kristen Wiig from SNL is also in it. I love her. I'm definitely seeing that one(:

Can't wait.

I have to see Adventureland first, because I'm not really allowed to see Little Ashes. I don't know how I'm going to go see Little Ashes, maybe I'll talk my mum into letting me go.

what the hell??

why don't i see any ADVENTURELAND promos??

ADVENTURELAND IS FIRST ALL THE WAY!

Or you could not mention Adventureland at all?

I'll definitely be seeing that first.

2009 is most certainly the year of Kristen Stewart.. just saying. Sorry Pattinson fans. :)
