Why is it a “Must See”?
The film debuted to very warm notices at the Sundance Film Festival, particularly for Stewart’s performance. Audiences haven’t recently given her a chance outside the “Twilight” series (see “Adventureland” and “The Runaways”), but perhaps this film can change that. If Samuel Goldwyn (who picked up the film from Apparition after they all-but-folded) plays their cards right, it could even give her some Oscar buzz.
