This past weekend, on the press tour for Spencer, Kristen Stewart sat down with the Sunday Times to discuss her career, specifically her most recent role as Princess Diana in Spencer:
In the article, K. Stew is quoted as saying she's only made "five really good films" in her career:
While I think that's a gross UNDERSTATEMENT of her abilities, I'm here to make a case for her five best films.
Hulu
It's OBVIOUS that those five films are Twilight, The Twilight Saga: New Moon, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 1, and The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 2*. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
*OK, I'm kidding, but the joke was right there and I had to go for it.
Sony Pictures
So these are my ACTUAL contenders for Kristen Stewart's five best films.*
*Even though I personally have never seen a bad K. Stew flick. But I digress. 🚨Warning: #2 and and #4 mention sexual assault and suicide respectfully.🚨
1.Panic Room (2002, dir. David Fincher):
Sony Pictures
A THROWBACK, I KNOW! Panic Room is a psychological thriller starring Kristen Stewart and Jodie Foster. The film follows Meg (Foster) and her daughter Sarah, who hide in a panic room in order to escape three armed robbers who break into their house.
Sony Pictures
K. Stew's subtlety in the background is what CONVINCED me that this was only the start of her very long career.
2.Speak (2004, dir. Jessica Sharzer):
3.Personal Shopper (2016, dir. Olivier Assayas):
4.Seberg (2019, dir. Benedict Andrews):
5.And last, but not least, Spencer (2021, dir. Pablo Larraín):
NEON
Spencer is described as a fable but I honestly see it as a low-key horror movie — in the best way possible. The best thing about her portrayal of Diana is that I could see how her catalog of stellar performances prepared her for her soon-to-be Oscar-winning role. The subtlety from Sarah in Panic Room, the silent stoicism from Melinda in Speak, the haunted essence of Maureen in Personal Shopper, and the paranoid downfall of Jean from Seberg. Add all of them together and you get K. Stew's groundbreaking portrayal of Princess Diana.
