SEBERG
by Benedict Andrews
Out of Competition - Venice

With Kristen Stewart, Jack O’Connell, Anthony Mackie, Margaret Qualley, Zazie Beetz, Yvan Attal, Vince Vaughn, Stephen Root, Colm Meaney

SCREEN
“'Seberg' is a success. 'Seberg' is a combination of radical politics, inter-racial sex and Hollywood tragedy during a deeply troubled time in the United States which has strong parallels to today.”

VARIETY
“Kristen Stewart delivers a subtle, enigmatic performance. It’s a hell of story. A hell of a character study.” 
“A fragile screen goddess in peril, then, her arc crossed with that of a government man undergoing a change of heart: a perfectly engrossing fiction.”

THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
“An idealistic It Girl caught in the political crosshairs... The luminous Kristen Stewart keeps you glued throughout, giving a coolly compelling performance that becomes steadily more poignant as the subject unravels.”

TIME
“Kristen Stewart exudes the bold, shimmering presence of a woman in pain in ‘Seberg’.”
“‘Seberg’ is a blunt portrait of a woman, a political activist as well as a movie star, whose life was kicked into a downward spiral by a devious government organization. The picture is potent and engaging. And Stewart is off the charts, though that’s hardly a surprise. She’s among the greatest actresses of our day.”

THE WRAP
“Kristen Stewart captures the spirit of a martyred icon. She’s a natural to play Jean Seberg. A great lead actress.”

SIGHT & SOUND
“Seberg is a breathless biopic of a star with a complex life.”
“Kristen Stewart shines as Jean Seberg in this glamorised retelling of her short life, in particular her intrusive surveillance by the US government.”

LITTLE WHITE LIES
“Jack O’Connell puts in a solid turn as FBI sound guy Jack Solomon.” 

INTERNATIONAL FILM CRITIQUE
"Kristen Stewart is remarkable.”

AWARDS CIRCUIT
"Venice applaud ‘Seberg’ and the fierce performance from Kristen Stewart.”

KINO ZEIT
"A loveletter to Jean Seberg."
"Stewart gives such a brilliant performance as she fusions with the character."
