First on our list of upcoming profiles of young actresses is Kristen Stewart. I first heard of her and thought, this girl is fabulous, when I watched Undertow. That's another David Gordon Green movie with the awesome Jamie Bell in the lead role. While her role is a bit short, she made quite an impression as Jamie Bell's girl, whose parents disapprove of the young man. Undertow is one of Jamie's most acclaimed films and from there Miss Stewart went from strength to strength.

Kristen also made waves in Sean Penn's Into the Wild, the movie that really made Emile Hirsch a star to watch. Says Kristen on her audition for the role (the actress auditioned for Sean Penn with a song):

Music is one of the most emotionally expressive things you can do. If I’m not feelin’ it, I can’t sing. Those two nights [where she sings for a crowd in the film], something was going on. It’s not always you can give that much. But, yeah, it’s intimidating. I went in and played "Blackbird” for him. That’s a hard song to sing to. I’m not a singer. I can play it but he was really funny about it. He asked me if I didn’t want him to look at me. "Do you want me to turn around?” "No, you have to see it.” But, I’d never done anything like that. It takes a guy like Sean to make you come to it and pump out the words.

Fans of the young actress are of course ecstatic about her forthcoming role in Twilight, one of the most popular upcoming films today. But there is another movie that will keep fans asking for more.

“The Yellow Handkerchief” is a beautiful love story, with a global emotional impact. I like to engage myself in projects where an audience can identify with the main characters – their hopes and their fears – so the question of a big budget vs. a small budget film does not arise. For me the only concern is that the audience all over the world will feel for the main protagonists and will identify with their concerns. The remake of “The Yellow Handkerchief” is such an endeavor – it has a global message that one should never give up. I trust that people will love this film and identify with it as a result of its sincere emotions," says producer Arthur Cohn.

In Yellow Handkerchief, Kristen plays Martine, a lonely girl in search of love. We'll have the full movie feature next!

Yellow Handkerchief

I have heard a little bit about this movie, which also stars Eddie Redmayne. Looks good. Looking forward to our upcoming movie feature. Kristen Stewart has been making some really good movie role choices as of late.

i think kristen stewart will prosper in this career. At a really young age, she has made good movie choices and steered away from being a teenybopper. i don't think she would be the next whoever but i think she will make a name on her own.
