Kristen Stewart shares unconventional hope for directorial debut at Cannes

Kristen Stewart wouldn’t mind if her directorial debut “crashes and burns” at the Cannes Film Festival.

Stewart directed The Chronology of Water and “can’t believe” that the “first draft” of the movie got accepted into the prestigious festival. The Twilight star isn’t afraid of getting negative feedback from critics at the festival.

"There’s not a more eloquent way [to say it]. We barely finished this movie. It’s not even done," Stewart told THR. "I need to come home and literally have two more weeks in color and sound. This is my f------ first draft."

The Snow White and the Huntsman actress gushed over the film’s spot in Cannes and called it "such a f----- Hail Mary," sharing that her "head blew off" when she found out the film had been accepted.

"I am not being false humble — we’re all running on fumes. I was like, 'We can do it.' I was like an absolute basket case," Stewart said. "I’m kind of happy to take on something vulnerable. I’m happy to take something with mistakes. Mistakes are f------ hot.”

"I love stories about movies and filmmakers that have taken their films to Cannes and had to come back and fix a few things and release a different movie," Kristen Stewart added, hinting that the film may change after its debut at Cannes. "It’s all about revealing yourself. So it’s very meta that we’re running in here half-dressed. But I’m into it."
