Seberg

Kristen Stewart is brilliantly cast as Jean Seberg, a real-life American actress who became an icon following performances in the 1960s French New Wave classic film BREATHLESS and later returning to Hollywood. Stewart really does look just as 1960s chic and as glamorous as the real-life Seberg, with her pixie cut and impeccable fashion, though that glamour is tempered with unexpected depth and tortured inner turmoil. However, while SEBURG shines when it comes to spot-on period details and color, it falls flat when it comes to the character's dramatic arc. It's an interesting true-life story of how the FBI targeted Seberg for her liberal political views, but the film fails to present the story in any sort of meaningful or insightful manner outside of "the man" shutting down dissent at the expense of the individual. Steward carries the film and is fantastic as Seberg, but that's really the only reason to watch the film.

A cada biografia feminina que assisto temas a mais absoluta certeza que nascer mulher é uma provação desde sempre, que biografia perfeita, sobre uma mulher maravilhosa, bem sucedida, porém infeliz, uma atriz linda e corajosa, Seberg, apoiava publicamente e financiava a causa dos Panteras Negras, e por isso condenada a "Lista Negra", grampos, perseguições e calúnias, triste, tipo o da Marilyn Monroe, vale a pena para quem curte biografia, eu a desconhecia… Kristen S2... Revoltate e Apaixonante…

Kristen Stewart is excellent. For me, this is her best career performance! (Her performance in Spencer is unbelievable, but here it's even better!

A surprisingly disappointing movie. From the low budget production, to Benedict Andrews mushy directing style. Kristen Stewart is beautiful but totally miscasted, despite the best efforts of the costume, hair and makeup department, she seemed incapable to channel the À bout de Souffle's Jean Seberg with her very limited acting abilities.

unwatchable awful... total shit show of absurd delusional filmmaking

Outstanding performance by Kirsten Stewart.

Thoroughly enjoyable and sobering watch. While the movie does something of a disservice to Jean Seberg through it's sometimes cliched dialuge and wondering story; It also hits deep when it needs to, with an amazing performance by Kristen Stewart and good supporting role Jack Solomen.

The film portrays Seberg, who was highly political in real life, as an insipid character whose primary motivation for getting involved with the Black panthers was getting laid by a black guy. It does Seberg a disservice to portray her in this way and reduces an interesting story about a committed political activist to a steamy romance

It's an important movie to watch for anyone who is not aware of Jean Seberg's story because the way her human rights were violated should concern us all. As a matter of fact, it's shocking how little outcry there has been about this. And unfortunately it's no wonder then that most artists and celebrities today, like Kristen Stewart herself, play it safe and think coming out as gay is a big thing when in truth artists of today have gone backwards in terms of breaking taboos and inspiring us to think and act! Some movies are so important to be told that it's not as important how they are told or if they are perfect or not. This movie does a very good job at exposing something most people are not aware of but need to be unless they don't give a shit about anyone's life, including their own.

She is young and glamorous, an American who stars in Godard movies. She is married to Romain Gary, one of France's most prominent writers, has a lovely child and lives in opulence in both Paris and Los Angeles. What more could she want? To publicly and financially support the Black Power movement and make love to one of its leaders. For that, Jean Seberg becomes a target of the FBI's illegal COINTELPRO program [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COINTELPRO]. And, oh, are they good at what they do! Kristen Stewart does a magnificent job depicting the way this real life actor was hounded and destroyed, up to her death of suspected suicide at age 40. Watch this movie, along with The Trial of the Chicago 7, to learn about the history you weren't taught in school. I'm still hoping to see such history from the point of view of the Black people who lived it.
