YMMV / Clouds of Sils Maria

• She Really Can Act: For Kristen Stewart. Despite having a number of lauded smaller roles, the looming spectre of Twilight and bad publicity surrounding Snow White & the Huntsman had seen her thrown under the bus by critics and audiences alike. It turns out that when given some meat to work with in a role, she can actually pull it off. Clouds, alongside Camp X-Ray and Still Alice, were part of a huge boost to her career across 2014 and 2015, and earned her first major acting awards, including, among others, a Cesar, New York Film Critics Circle, and National Society Of Film Critics awards for Best Supporting Actress.
