WATCH THE Creepy, Eerie 'CHILDHOOD OF A LEADER' Trailer Starring Robert Pattinson
The first trailer for Childhood of a Leader has come, and it is so creepy!! Watch with headphones, because there are sounds and jumps in this trailer like you wouldn't believe!
Starring Robert Pattinson, Liam Cunningham, Stacy Martin, and Berenice Bejo, This chilling fable is about the rise of fascism in the 20th Century tells the story of a young American boy living in France in 1918 whose father is working for the US government on the creation of the Treaty of Versailles. What he witnesses helps to mould his beliefs - and we witness the birth of a terrifying ego. Loosely inspired by the early childhood experiences of many of the great dictators of the 20th Century and infused with the same sense of dread as The Others and The Omen, The Childhood of a Leader is an ominous portrait of emerging evil.

CAFE SOCIETY Director Woody Allen Sits with France2 + NEW Still of Kristen Stewart
French channel 2 talked with Cafe Society director Woody Allen about opening his new film at Cannes Film Festival this year, featuring a new still of Kristen Stewart's Vonnie character.
_______________
"In a sense it's my usual, romanticise view of New York and its life in late 30s - and how difficult life and love are or were even then, and haven't changed much now. It was a difficult sentence to say."
"I spent a whole year with people like Kristen Stewart, Blake Lively.. beautiful women.. talented men like Jesse Eisenberg for exemple.. And I worked with costumers and I worked with cinematographers and I escaped into the movies, I don't think about life, my whole life is all fantasy. From wen I was a little boy going to the movies to a grown up making movies."
_________________
THR: You had to reshoot part of Cafe Society. What happened?
I shot a few scenes in California with Bruce Willis, and Bruce was going to do something on Broadway [Misery] and it was just too much for him. So we replaced him with Steve Carell.
How did the movie come about?
I wanted to do kind of a novel on film, about a family and the relationships of the members toward one another, and the protagonist's love relationship. I wanted it to have the structure of a novel, so I could move around and dwell on various members of the family. That's why I narrated it because I was sort of the writer of the novel that you were experiencing when you saw the film.
Was the agent played by Carell based on anyone specific?
Yes and no. When I first started in the business, I was 16, 17, and I would go up to agents' offices. And these agents were very powerful figures to me. I remember going out to California once, going to William Morris, and there was a very beautiful receptionist there. And I thought, "My God, she's as beautiful as any of the movie stars."
What kind of things did you read for research to make the movie?
Well, you read the [old] gossip columns, the Hollywood columns, [which] were in New York as well. So much of what you knew from California, you knew from the columns that you got in New York — Hedda Hopper and Sheilah Graham. They would give you the Hollywood news, and it sounded very exciting.
This is your 12th film in Cannes.
It could be. I don't know. For years, I would send the film and not go. I don't know [why]. I never liked to fly on an airplane for six hours and get the time change. It makes me crazy; it takes me six months to get [over the time change]. Just from daylight saving time, I can't recover. So then I started to go, and my wife likes to go, she enjoys the South of France. I mean, I like the South of France, too. It's a film-oriented event, and so it's enjoyable.

Interview with Le Point Magazine: Kristen Stewart "Never Thought She's Get the Role" in CAFE SOCIETY
Cannes: Kristen Stewart, double dealing.
The "Twilight" star will shine in Cannes with Woody Allen's "Café Society" and Olivier Assayas' "Personal Shopper".
"I became excessively, ridiculously and stupidly famous at the age of 18. It happened overnight and it created a whole gossip industry capitalizing on the interest kids had when it came to me. Some people tried to upset me just to have a story to tell. I was only a kid, I hadn't learned how to assess the intentions of the people who were interviewing me. So, I was always on the defensive and I understand that some people may have thought I was insensitive or unpleasant." if there is one thing that Kristen Stewart doesn't lack, it's lucidity. Only four years have passed since the end of "Twilight", the saga that transformed vampires into charming princes and the actress into the idol of teens, but she's already learned everything from her past experiences. She knows that, from the time her face was on the cover of every gossip magazine, the public still thinks of her as a gloomy actress, unable to deal with her popularity. She also knows that the media will keep on labeling her as the "Twilight star" when she will open the Cannes Film Festival on May 11th with the last Woody Allen film titled "Cafe Society". This, when it's only the third time she proves her worth at the Cannes Film Festival, after "On The Road" by Walter Salles in 2012, and "Sils Maria" by Olivier Assayas in 2014. She knows it and she doesn't care: time will do its work.
Incidentally, you only need to see the delicious "Café Society" to realize this. Cute skirt, pink cheeks, a headband with a bow on a bobbed hairstyle, Kristen Stewart shines like never before as Vonnie, a young secretary being wooed by two men in Hollywood in the 30s. It has to be said that it was the condition for her to get the role: "That's the reason why I thought I'd never get the role!" she tells us. "Vonnie is a really soft character, with a lot of drive ; Woody told me it would only work if I was capable of showing this kind of happy energy. I had to work on that a lot." The result is even more facinating knowing it's never acquired. Far from the charm and the inner bubbliness of an Emma Stone, the director's previous muse, Kristen Stewart always seems on the verge of staggering. Pretty in her own way, full of a playfulness from where we can also sense some melancholy, dull and yet madly magnetic.
We understand Olivier Assayas when he says he saw in her "more than a talented actress, someone very unique". Their collaboration on "Sils Maria" earned Kristen the first César for an Actress in a supporting role ever given to an American Actress. Most importantly, according to Assayas, it earned her "a liberty that she had never felt in other movie before." "I am used to directors being very directive. In the US, most of the time, you're told what you're supposed to do and what you should be feeling" Kristen herself confirms, "Olivier is not a man of many words. Overall, French cinema is more intuitive." Inspired by each other, they're rediscovering each other in "Personal Shopper", presented at Cannes this year. "There is something to be said about Kristen's observation, which made its way into my writing.", the French director tells us, who wrote for her this fantasy thriller, about an American taking care of the wardrobe of a french celebrity in Paris and is also grieving the loss of a brother with whom she's trying to.... communicate! "I wanted to talk about this pull we all feel between the materialism of our contemporary world - which is felt a hundred times more for a star like Kristen - and the intimate dimension specific to each of us, haunted by her dreams, her fantasies, her worries, and generally, by an invisible form." he explains.
Ambiguity. Twilight means "crépuscule" in French, that time of the day situated between night and day and which describes Kristen Stewart very well, never truer to herself than in the obscur-light. About her character in 'Café Society', the one who makes men go crazy (yes, the actress) says bluntly: "I love that this a heroine who is completely at easy with the idea of taking an unconventional road. I find that refreshing that she doesn't feel any guilt. She choses one of the two men who want her, and she could pick the other. It's natural to hesitate, there are so many different road that we can take in life." In different terms, told differently to an American magazine who asked her about her sexuality last year: "I'm an actress, man. I live in the ambiguity of this fucking life!"
Today, the actress is about to add another ambiguity to her life by going behind the camera. Wanting to direct, she says has been gnawing at her for a few years. It's true that with her past, of being a Californian kid, raised by her mom - a screenwriter - and a dad - producer - who fell in the world of acting at the age of 12 (In Panic Room, alongside Jodie Foster), there were chances that she was going to go in that direction eventually. "I grew up on set, I love their summer camp side. I'm fascinated by the process of creating a film, and I want to find a work for which i'd be ready to give up my life." For now, it will only be a "small student film", but it will be "damn cool", she says. We won't know more than that, aside from the fact that she will be filming it this summer and she won't accept any role until it's finished. More reasons to savor her double exposition of the Cannes red carpet. After Twilight, the Palme d'Or?
"Café Society" by woody Allen, out on May 11th in France and "Personal Shopper" by Olivier Assayas, out on October 19th in France also.

Interview
In Cannes, the actress wil appear in "Café Society" by Woody Allen and in "Personal Shopper", written for her by Olivier Assayas. Two roles extremely different, one light, the other tortured, where she gets to develop her whole acting range.
If you need an adjective to describe Kristen Stewart, it will be this one: eloquent. Among actors, a neat majority likes to hide behind ready-made formulas. ("It was a nice encounter", "a real challenge") instead of being adventurous in an analysis or an exact description of their livelihood.
Kristen Stewart has been acting for ten years (she's 25), we count forty full-length feature films in her filmography and she still talks about her job with stars in her eyes - sometimes terror - and talks about it as an explorator would when they come back from an unknown country. Woody Allen for example. Most actors who work with the octogenarian New Yorker talk about him with extreme respect. Not Kristen Stewart, lead feminine role in Café Society, which will be shown on the opening day of the 69th Cannes Film Festival.
She remembers asking to read the screenplay beforehand, "which was quite a situation", before acceptin to play Vonnie, a woman who makes Steve Carell and Jesse Eisenberg's heads spin. Ahead of filming, she asked herself if she could play a character she judged a bit old-fashioned. She decided to play with this lightness "ever if her natural energy is heavy", and decided to trust the director, against all odds. "He's a safe bet, she says, even if he is deadly honest."
Kristen Stewart makes a pretty impressive imitation of Woody, saying at the end of a tale: "We are going to do it again. Next time, would it be possible for you to not walk into the room like you walk into a saloon?" or "It was okay, I fell asleep for a moment but it was okay." She concludes by laughing: "In that last one we decided to go faster."
About the director of "Manhattan", she observes: "At times, he lets a striking emotion slip through, which is amazing because he's usually sardonic and not very delicate. When you watch his films, you feel like you're watching simple entertainment, and then everything slows down and you're deeply touches. Woody is like his films: a joker, who is very funny on set, who doesn't give many indications, and suddenly, something inside of him sweeps everything in his path. We look at one another and realize we just shared a strong moment with him. It's really nice, very important and it's considerably enough."
JESSE EISENBERG, AN OLD ACCOMPLICE.
The pronoun "we" includes an old accomplice of Kristen Stewart, Jesse Eisenberg, with whom she's worked with three times in the past, in "Adventureland" (2009), "American Ultra" (2015) and "Café Society". With the young New Yorker actor, that she describes as "Crazy intelligent", she spends her days on set talking to him "our conversations are idle and hilarious, we analyze every detail of the behaviour of people around us." Which might not be the best way to end up popular with the crew, but it keeps boredom and loneliness away.
A loneliness that Kristen Stewart felt a lot when she went from Café Society to Personal Shopper. For Olivier Assayas' film, shown in competition, she will be present at Cannes again, a few days after the opening. She will walk the steps to celebrate a film, for which the shoot was a real ordeal - not only allowed, but also conceived by working in tandem with the director. She plays Maureen, a young American exiled in Paris, where her twin brother just passed away. To earn a living, she becomes the fashion buyer of a celebrity, while she's trying desperately to get in contact with the spectre of the diseased brother.
FIlmed in France, as well as in studios and surroundings in Prague, "Personal Shopper" is a winter film that offers its interpret a rare opportunity in the world of cinema: Act alone in almost every scene. The actress grasped that immediately, after reading the screeplay only once. But she asked Olivier Assayas to push back filming a bit so she could play Vonnie in "Café Society": "For Woody's film, I had to be bubbly and full of joy, to be very healthy and I knew that if I shot 'Personal Shopper' first, I'd have been drained."
For the director, who wrote the film with Kristen in mind, Stewart used techniques she learned on their precedent collaboration, "Sils Maria" who had the young American actress play the assistant of a star - Julliette Binoche. The director and the actress met one another through Charles Gillibert, who produced 'On The Road' for MK2, the adaptation of Jack Kerouac's book by Walter Saller. Kristen Stewart was Marylou, with a zest for life, a sensual simplicity that the Twilight films - at their peak - never showcased.
Following a series of mishaps, she almost saw the role of Val slip through her fingers, the intellectual who tries to maintain a link between the star played by Juliette Binoche and reality. But when Olivier Assayas asked her to play the character of Jo-Ann, the star who has the same amount of scandals in her real life than in her line of work, Kristen Stewart chose to play Val instead: "She told me that the character of the actress was too obvious, that the character of Val, with her distance and her skepticism, was more suited for her", the director remembers. The accuracy of the analysis was confirmed by a César, a trophy that the members of the academy usually do not give to non-French actors.
A GRUELLING SHOOT
This amazing experience did not prepare the director and the actress for what was awaiting them: "Olivier and I had grossly underestimated the difficulty of the film. This fucking 'Personal Shopper'... I've never felt so weakened at the end of filming before. We were working six days a week, days that lasted sixteen hours. It was a good setting to work, I never had to pretend I was cold, that I was along or exhausted. There was no break and I was starting to fall into mental cracks, I was starting to have thoughts you're not supposed to have at night, that stopped me from having a social and productive live. When I saw the film, I thought I was really skinny, I told myself: 'Dude, you need to eat a cheesburger'."
We should be able to faithfully transpose what Kristen Stewart says about the character of Maureen, her anxiety, her suffering, but it would taint the movie. She speaks with as much lucidity but with less passion about her role in "American Ultra" where she played Phoebe, A provincial hippy who is hiding a dark secret. Same goes with the Twilight experience. The role of Bella Swan, that she played for four year from 2008 to 2012, turned her into one of the best paid actresses in Hollywood, but also one of the favorite subjects of tabloids and internet gossip.
"I loved making these movies, she remembers about Twilight. We started really strong. If only we had succeeded in mainting that energy, that same enthusiasm as during the first film... But everyone was dreading disappointing the public, and the following movies were pure studio productions." Yet, Kristen Stewart holds a very particular relationship with this industry. Rather than being the client of one of those big artistic agencies in Hollywood, she's worked with the same one since she was 12. As Charles Gillibert observes himself: "She might be the only one in her field where her team works for her and not the other way around." She analyzes the economical mecanism of celebrity with a strong intensity. "You have to maintain her certain amount of popularity if you want to be able to finance movies. For that, you have to film in big budget productions from time to time, that are profitable. I'm being encouraged to make more movies like Snow White & The Huntsman (or American Ultra) to make it easier for indie films to be done like those I did this year. If I hadn't had that popularity, we wouldn't have gotten the money."
Same analytical coldness when it comes to tabloids: "We've created a character for an industry that makes up stories about celebrites. It's a form of entertainment. At least when we write stories, in my industry, we recognise that those are made up. These people just steal images to construct their own and then they try to make people believe that they're real. The public knows that it's a fraud. It's just like wretstling, everyone knows that it's not a real fight, that it's a game, but people pretend that we haven't chosen in advance who is going to win and who is going to lose."
JODIE FOSTER'S ADVICE
The pressure of paparazzi and tabloids is constant, but Kristen Stewart arrived alone to the meeting, on time, in a Los Feliz restaurent, a neighborhood that was once calm in Los Angeles, where the celebrities from Beverly Hills are slowly replacing hystorical residents. She remembers that on the set of 'Panic Room' by David Fincher, Jodie Foster told the 11 years old kid that she was then: "You are too smart to stay an actress for too long. You won't stand everything that comes along with it. I see you as a director instead."
Years laters, the two women saw one another at an award ceremony. The oldest was shocked to see that the youngest had persevered. "Jodie Foster loves being an actress, but she also hates it, Kristen Stewart observed. As for me, I love it and I don't want to stop. I've gone through the worst, the craziest when it comes to the negative side-effects of this job. And I still find incredibly lucky to be able to do it". We will see her again this year, maybe in Venice or Toronto, in 'Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk' by Ang Lee. This adaptation of a successful novel, which follows the tour in the US of a GI, the recipient of a medal after going to Irak (Kristen Stewart plays his sister), is already talked about as a contender at the Oscars. The rest of the actress' filmography is yet to be unwritten.
Unlike her fellow actors who often build their career in order to gain roles who could bring them to the Oscars, Kristen Stewart lets the movies come to her. "Some projects seemed very good for me on paper, great roles with great directors, but I couldn't find in me the urge to make them. My team was not sharing my point of view. And these roles have turned big for those other actors that have played them. It's great. At the end of the day, the only person deciding is myself. I don't have a list of projects, I only have to feel that need to make some of the ones I'm being shown, and as long as I don't feel that, I don't even feel like I'm an actress.
A BREAK TO DIRECT
These days, very relaxed, she's going through one of those moment where she has no roles lined up, which she has never done before. "I can't feel free if I know I have to play a character." she explains. Between the end of "Snow White" filming in 2012 and the start of "Camp X-Ray", a small indie film where she plaid a GI in Guantanamo, she spent eighteen months without filming a movie.
This time she swears the interruption will be much shorter. She's decider to take the time to film the short that she's been writing for years. "I don't want anything right now, just to create my own stories." she admits. Kristen Stewart finished her studies on set, far away from classes, and she sometimes regrets not having gone to university, in a film school. She is old enough that she could be getting her diploma from one of them and she considers her upcoming short like a "student film", rathen than a business card to present to producers. A film she will shoot with zero care to the attention it will undoubtedly garner. Jodie Foster's prophecy might become reality.
