    the way she talks about books is so passionate, all the minute details she's expressing about each piece of literature she's come across. and she's so comfortable. like she is being herself, casually talking about her favorite books. shows she genuinely loves reading. one of her best interviews.

      You are right, and I suspect it’s because she’s not being forced down uncomfortable, meaningless paths with silly questions centered around celebrity or her private life. She is endlessly interesting to listen to when she’s comfortable.

    Well done Chanel for at long last providing us with the one interview of Kristen Stewart that I've been hoping to see for over a decade. Of course Kristen is an intelligent woman who reads and broadens her experience that way, but this side of her has been woefully underrepresented in the mostly dumb interviews she is obliged to give. Thank you. Well done Kristen for inspiring me to read a bunch of books I haven't heard about and I'm delighted to find out we have a mutual fascination with Jeanne D'Arc. Just now as I was googling Lidia Yuknavitch I was thrilled to discover that Kristen is set to make her directorial debut directing a film adaptation of The Chronology of Water. I haven't read it and I have mixed feelings about reading it but read it I will and I look forward to this film with keen anticipation.

    I've actually never known anyone that articulate, present and dissecting of the world around her. She's a special one and she's got such unique views on life and existence and I hate that it's so shadowed away by Hollywood old patriarchy but I love that she now feels confortable enough to give us a slight glimpse of such immaculate talent.

    I love how every single sit-down interview Kstew has, the comment section is always filled with "I didn't know she was this articulate and eloquent and amazing and stunning etc etc" and "This is the most confident I've seen her, she's being herself!" like please guys, she stopped being the socially-awkward Bella over a decade ago. Watch her more recent stuff. I know people called her overrated many years ago, but shes freaking underrated. Her talents, and her mind. She's an amazing actress and an amazing person.

    Kristen has such a way of describing things aloud that is so endearing and engaging. Not only her words, but you can visibly see how she is so inspired come through. That’s one of my favorite things in the world to see. I’ve recently been wondering where her value for impulsivity stems from, and hearing her thoughts on “On the Road” is insightful to that. This interview is incredibly thought-provoking.

  • @noellewrites6670
    @noellewrites6670 Před rokem +5

    I also loved how she mentioned Van Guogh and how he longed to share something he loved so much but couldn’t figure out how. I can identify with that. she’s such a deep thinker and I never would have known it. I would love to see more of this from her.

  • @melodyal3357
    @melodyal3357 Před rokem +36

    I love the how Kristen found her path towards herself through years. She's grown up like a fine wine. She has became self confidant woman yet she hasn't lost that innocence and sensibility so characteristic to her own. There is an attractive kind of glimpse of insecurity she has always possessed but now seemed to have more control over; a kind of insecurity which mirrors her emotional intelligence and curiosity coming from the place of wisdom and humbleness. I wish to this beautiful inside and out woman so much happiness and love in her life; I think she's special one.

I picked it up this year for that particular reason (i know, crazy), and it turned out to be one of the best books I've ever read. So much wisdom and beauty in Steinbeck's writing, I can't wait to read the rest of his work.

I love reading and I can tell that she can literally feel the words in the books leap off the page. She makes me remember how much I love to read. When I was younger reading was like breathing to me, and I feel like the busyness of life has given me so few opportunities to experience this currently. Amazing discourse Kristen.❤

    Reminds me of something David Hockney said but he was quoting his sister saying "space is God" and that he found it quite poetic. It always stuck with me as an artist because space and time really are relative. We and the rest of nature can never really fill our environment completely. We can add something though.

    God, this video was amazing. I loved listening to her speak about something she's clearly passionate about. I'm leaving with a few book recommendations, too.
    Please make more videos, I wanna hear all her favorite poems read out loud by her.

    I remember how awkward and guarded KS was in the early days of fame. It's nice to hear her speak with so much passion and insight and freedom about books. I literally added a few to my TBR (East of Eden was already there but made it to the top). I love Harari, it reminded me to pick up HD. The Van Gogh letters had been on my radar. And Didion was one of the first "serious" author I picked as a teenager (Play it as it lays in my case), I need to revisit. So many suggestions here. Please make this a whole more sustained series.
