"Water For Elephants" Spoiler Thread #2 - B/C "Robert has an innate kindness about him that is wonderful in this role."

.Water For Elephants Spoiler Thread #1.








Directed by Francis Lawrence.
Screenplay is written by Richard LaGravenese based on the novel by Sara Gruen.





The Cast
Robert Pattinson as Jacob Jankowski
Reese Witherspoon as Marlena
Christoph Waltz as August




The Story
As a young man, Jacob Jankowski was tossed by fate onto a rickety train that was home to the Benzini Brothers Most Spectacular Show on Earth. It was the early part of the great Depression, and for Jacob, now ninety, the circus world he remembers was both his salvation and a living hell. A veterinary student just shy of a degree, he was put in charge of caring for the circus menagerie. It was there that he met Marlena, the beautiful equestrian star married to August, the charismatic but twisted animal trainer. And he met Rosie, an untrainable elephant who was the great gray hope for this third-rate traveling show. The bond that grew among this unlikely trio was one of love and trust, and, ultimately, it was their only hope for survival.

There are so many set pictures of Rob (not that I'm complaining!) that I wouldn't even know where to begin adding them to the OP, lol.

Just out of curiosity ... have any of you guys read the novel? I'm a huge lover of the novel and would love to gush about it a bit. <3

Call me Linds. And that would definitely work, lol. Just snag the best ones out of the million we've gotten!

I didn't realize Bel-Ami was originally a novel. I'll have to get my hands on that. You should definitely check WFE out as soon as you can, though, because it's just really amazing. I read it a couple of weeks ago and I already have the itch to pick it back up again.
