Praise for Kristen Stewart in SPENCER

94th OSCARS® Nominations Announced

"Right off, we feel as if we're seeing…Diana. The real thing. Kristen Stewart doesn't just do an impersonation (though on the level of impersonation she's superb). She transforms; she changes her aspect, her rhythm, her karma." - Owen Gleiberman, Variety

"I can't say enough about Kristen Stewart's performance, steering from an impression of an impossibly well-chronicled figure to beautifully achieving the essence of who she was. It is a bracing, bitter, moving, and altogether stunning turn, taking Diana down roads we have not seen played out quite like in this mesmerizing portrayal." - Pete Hammond, Deadline

"Stewart's finely detailed work on the accent and mannerisms is impeccable. The camera adores her, and she has seldom been more magnetic, or more heartbreakingly fragile." - David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter

"A virtuoso performance… Stewart is extraordinary at conjuring up a rarefied form of neurotic energy… (she) pulls off a dervish dance that moves from mania to stillness, from studied composure to emotional abandon, all while keeping control of that voice." - Sophie Monks Kaufman, Time Out

"This is a raw, brilliant performance, so entirely embodying the character that it starts to seem less like acting and more like possession. Stewart has never been better." - Chris Evangelista, SlashFilm

"A bravura performance by Kristen Stewart." - Peter Howell, Toronto Star

About SPENCER

The marriage of Princess Diana and Prince Charles has long since grown cold. Though rumors of affairs and a divorce abound, peace is ordained for the Christmas festivities at the Queen's Sandringham Estate. There's eating and drinking, shooting and hunting. Diana knows the game. But this year, things will be profoundly different. SPENCER is an imagining of what might have happened during those few fateful days. Directed by Pablo Larraín. Written by Steven Knight. Starring Kristen Stewart, Sally Hawkins, Timothy Spall, Sean Harris, and Jack Farthing. From Topic Studios and Neon.
