Here's some confirmation for Twi-hards that the Twilight Saga films really are quality work. Writer/director Sofia Coppola says, "I just love that it's so romantic."

Sofia was in the running for director of Breaking Dawn, but the seat was given to Bill Condon. Still, Sofia is very much a fan of the films.
As director of Marie Antoinette, Lost in Translation and the upcoming Somewhere, Sofia knows a good love story when she sees one!
"I just love that it's so romantic," Sofia told MTV News. "I'm always a sucker for a love story and also to do something for teenagers, because I feel like, why not have beautiful cinematography and all these things in a kid movie? Usually it looks like it's not crafted very sophisticated, and I feel like it'd be nice to bring that kind of style into a younger film."

Although Sofia won't be biting into Breaking Dawn, she did say she considered it.
"Yeah, yeah, I talked to them about that," Sofia explained. "I was interested in doing something but I didn't end up doing it. But I love... I'm impressed by Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattison pulling it off in that whole story. And my friend's kids love the story so much that I thought it would be fun to make something that they love so much."
It's nice to hear the Twilight films get the love they deserve!
