At the 54th New York Film Festival, we celebrated the work of Kristen
Stewart, who is at NYFF with three films, with an intimate dinner and
conversation benefiting the Film Society of Lincoln Center.
For the past few years, Kristen Stewart has been quietly amassing an
impressive body of work, starring in enigmatic roles in complex films,
including the NYFF52 selection Clouds of Sils Maria, directed by Olivier
Assayas, for which she became the first American actor to win the
French César award. This year feels like a culmination of this
extraordinary phase of her career: she starred in five movies in 2016,
the best of which are featured at NYFF: Assayas’s Personal Shopper, in
which she appears in nearly every shot; Kelly Reichardt’s Certain Women;
and Ang Lee’s Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk. All three films speak to
an actor constantly willing to challenge herself and her fans.
