Kristen Stewart on Juliette Binoche: She Drives Me Fking Crazy


When Juliette Binoche and Kristen Stewart began working on the spellbinding new film Clouds of Sils Maria in which they respectively play an aging actress and her longtime assistant the pair turned to a few classic films for research and inspiration. Legendary Swedish director Ingmar Bergman was at the top of the queue, but not, as Peter Traverscracks in a new Off the Cuffinterview with the pair, the Twilight saga.

Indeed, Clouds of Sils Maria features intense Bergman-esque explorations of human relationships, and the chemistry Binoche and Stewart developed on set is palpable as they speak to Travers about workingtogether and their vastly different acting methods.

Im addicted to the first time, Stewart says, after Binoche recalls watching the actress stroll onto set and briefly look at the script rightbeforethe take starts. Im addicted to that feeling that youve to constructed something, but that youre really, truly discovering something. If something happens for me once, everything after feels like a false imitation.

Binoches approach is more calculated, especially since English is not the Paris-born actressfirst language. I dont think I have the ability to just read and know the text, she says. I need to be totally free from it, and free means a lot of work.

Binoche then recalled a moment whentheir styles collided, when Stewart ended a particularly powerful scene by accidentally blurting out the opposite sentiment of the line she was supposed to deliver. The pair laugh giddily throughout the whole story, causing Travers to remark, Well it looks like youre really good actors if youre faking the fact that you seem to genuinely like each other from this experience.

Nah, Stewart says with a smile, she drives me fucking crazy.
