Based on the friendship of Life magazine photographer Dennis Stock and Hollywood actor James Dean, “Life” is the new film from Dutch director Anton Corbijn starring Robert Pattinson and Dane DeHaan.
Pattinson, whose role in “Twilight”, threw him into the media spotlight was happy to find himself behind the lens as Dennis Stock.
“It’s quite fun, I mean it’s sort of interesting to know, to feel that the power trip, especially when I was shooting the scene on the red carpet, like when you’re part of the massive throng of people and not only you’re part of a crowd and hidden but also you can hide your own face, you see all the pressure’s on someone else, it’s kind of nice. You feel all secure in your little pack. It’s very different.”
The story follows Stock as he meets James Dean just as his fame is peaking and taking the most iconic stills of young actor’s short but intense life.
Having only made three films, there wasn’t much material for DeHaan to find the truth behind the leg
