Kristen Talks “Still Alice” & Working With Julianne More With The Vancouver Sun

Image
Kristen Stewart didn’t need to stretch herself into actorly knots to feel a familial bond with Julianne Moore in “Still Alice.” She had known Moore, who became a five-time Oscar nominee with her recent nod for “Alice,” since her first starring role in 2004′s “Catch That Kid,” which was directed by Moore’s husband Bart Freundlich. That shoot was “very much a family affair,” Stewart says, and she grew close enough to Moore that acting as her daughter in “Still Alice” felt almost too easy. “It’s hard to take credit for anything … because I like her, and because we get along and we understand each other — and that was captured,” Stewart “As an actor … you can’t work with everyone, to be honest with you. The reason things affect an audience … is because an emotion and energy like that is contagious, so if you’re faking it, people know it. “For a project that’s so ambitious and so intimidating,” she added, “I needed to know I would help and support her rather than take away from what she’s d...

Kristen Talks Performing On Stage, Big Budget Movies, & Directing Her Own Films

Image
Let’s begin by making things clear: Kristen Stewart is not, at the age of 24 and with 33 film credits in the past 15 years, quitting Hollywood. But Stewart has been carving out her own career path since graduating from the  Twilight  series, focusing on such smaller, independent features as  Camp X-Ray ,  Clouds of Sils Maria , and, most recently, in  Still Alice , where she plays Lydia, a daughter who must care for her Alzheimer’s-stricken mother — played by the Golden Globe-winning, Oscar-nominated Julianne Moore. Stewart, however, wants to keep things unpredictable and is always willing to take a chance. Like, perhaps, a blockbuster Marvel or DC film.  “I love watching those movies,”  she tells Yahoo Movies.  “I would love to show people that I can do more than just be ‘Kristen Stewart’ in a different movie, in a different circumstance.”  She notes her past role as Snow White in the big-budget fantasy adventure  Snow White and th...

Kristen Talks “Still Alice” and “Twilight” Fame With Reuters

Image
Kristen Stewart strides into the room in a power pantsuit and high-heeled pumps. Within minutes, the actress kicks off her heels and sits cross-legged on her chair, getting comfortable to talk about the good moment in her career, a very different time from her blockbuster “Twilight” years. Stewart has earned acclaim for her supporting roles in two art-house films: as the daughter of a woman (Julianne Moore) suffering from early onset Alzheimer’s in “Still Alice,” opening in Los Angeles and New York this weekend; and the assistant to an aging movie star (Juliette Binoche) in “Clouds of Sils Maria,” a Cannes Film Festival favorite out in U.S. theaters this spring. “I am thrilled. I love movies. I don’t have those nagging, regretful feelings about either of them, ” Stewart said. “It is a miracle,”  she added.  “Jesus, when the stars align and you are allowed to feel that way, it is why movies are made. It is why they affect people.” Critics have taken note of what the former chil...

KRISTEN STEWART ON SMILING, FIGHTING WITH KATE BOSWORTH, AND LOVING JULIANNE MOORE

Image
Somewhere along her up-up-and-away path to stardom, Kristen Stewart acquired a certain blogosphere rep for being aloof, sullen, and allergic to smiley faces. None of that's actually true, but listen: If you  like  your K-Stew with a dash of sulky self-possession, you'll want to see  Still Alice . The emotional A-bomb of a film stars Julianne Moore as an academic seized by early onset Alzheimer's disease, and Stewart as her middle child, a moody, struggling actress flanked by two straight-A siblings. (Kate Bosworth plays the eldest, a lawyer, and Hunter Parrish is the youngest, a med school student.) In the film—which just nabbed a Golden Globe for Moore's outstanding performance—Stewart is by turns selfless and bratty, fiercely stubborn and sweetly insecure. By the end of the movie, you'll have loved her, hated her, wept with her…and probably obsessed about her perfect mess of hair, too. But if you'd like to meet the  real  Stewart—or at least, a small but candi...
