Kristen talks about her directing short film 'Come Swim' with ShowBiz411

It’s no secret that Woody Allen films actresses better than anyone. Maybe that’s why his actresses have scored so many Oscar wins and nominations. From Diane Keaton to Dianne Wiest to Mira Sorvino to Cate Blanchett, with many others in between, Woody is the go to guy if the ladies want a gold statue.

So it should come as no surprise that Kristen Stewart hijacks Woody’s excellent, funny and profound “Cafe Society.” She steals out from under Jessie Eisenberg, Steve Carell, Parker Posey and a whole cast of talented folks. 

Kristen came to Woody’s premiere last night at the Paris Theater, followed by the overcrowded and hot as a sauna reception at the famed Hotel Carlyle. Woody came in for a few minutes, sensed the heat, noise and general unpleasantness, and scrammed tout suite. 

But Kristen hung in there, chatting with legendary rocker Patti Smith and her daughter, taking pictures with young girls who are really “Twilight” fans, and even with Woody and Soon Yi’s very poised 16 year old daughter, Manzie, who brought two school pals. 

Kristen told me about the short film she’s going to direct this summer called “Water.” “It’s about heartbreak,” she said, “what it looks like what we’re going through it and what’s it like when you realize you’ve recovered.” She’s cast a non actor friend named Josh as the lead. 

Kristen was completely psyched as she described this to me. She confirmed that she has bigger aspirations to become a feature director. “Since I’m 9 I’ve wanted to be a director,” she said. I’ll tell you–she can do it. Why? She already knew what I was going to say. 

“Because I want it,” she said. I think we’re just at the beginning of a learning curve with Kristen Stewart. She has a most unusual career ahead of her. 

In Cannes, Kristen starred in both “Cafe Society” and “Personal Shopper.” She left an indelible impression as a serious actress. She’s also a knock out in both films. 

Her “Twilight” time is behind her. “You don’t know how much that means to me when you say it,” she told me.

Patti Smith mentions Kristen & Rob

Is singer-writer and early punk inspiration Patti Smith a fan of Kristen Stewart and Rob Pattinson?

You bet.

The iconic performer, who is steadily working with Oscar-nominated screenwriter John Logan (in between touring) on the script for a film adaptation of her 2010 bestselling memoir Just Kids, about her relationship with photographer Robbert Mapplethorpe when the two were starving young artists in New York City, voiced her appreciation of the Twilight stars to EW just before her small, private concert for Los Angeles radio station KCRW on Wednesday. She added that she could see the pair playing her and Mapplethorpe on screen … when they were lesser known.

“I remember the very first time I saw Kristen Stewart and Rob Pattinson together, when they were younger, and I thought, ‘Those two kids could have easily played us when they were first starting,” said Smith. “There’s something in his eyes. And Robert [Mapplethorpe] was also a bit shy, and a bit stoic. Kristen has a very special quality. She’s not conventionally beautiful, but very charismatic.”
