Bel Ami is the story of Georges Duroy (Robert Pattinson), who travels through 1890s Paris, from cockroach ridden Garretsen to opulent salons, using his wits and powers of seduction to rise from poverty to wealth, from a prostitute's embrace to passionate trysts with wealthy beauties, in a world where politics and media jostle for influence, where power and celebrity sex is an obsession.
Based on the synopsis, I think Pattinson's female fanbase is going to be very happy watching this movie. Hit the jump for more:
