Synopsis

When Bella Swan moves to a small town in the Pacific Northwest, she falls in love with Edward Cullen, a mysterious classmate who reveals himself to be a 108-year-old vampire. Despite Edward's repeated cautions, Bella can't stay away from him, a fatal move that endangers her own life.

Cinematic Threads
But I did go back and look at a lot of really beautiful romantic films... Ang Lee's Sense and Sensibility, I looked at Romeo + Juliet and I just wanted to bring the romance, the intensity, the feeling of first love and angst.
