Kristen Stewart continues to roll hard on the indie scene. This year alone, the actress has been shooting new films with Woody Allen and Olivier Assayas, while "Equals" landed on the festival circuit, "Clouds Of Sils Maria" made the arthouse rounds, and uh, "American Ultra" belly flopped at the multiplex. She’ll jump into 2016 with both feet via "Anesthesia."
Also starring Sam Waterston, Tim Blake Nelson (who directs), Glenn Close, Corey Stoll, K. Todd Freeman, Gretchen Mol, Mickey Sumner, Jessica Hecht, Gloria Reuben and Michael K. Williams, the drama follows a number of individuals interacting with a philosophy professor. Here’s the official synopsis:
Set in New York City, Tim Blake Nelson’s thought-provoking drama is a meditation of city life that examines the inextricable and unforeseen forces that bring a group of disparate individuals together in a world where many people are alone and life remains unexamined.
Walter Zarrow is a well-loved Columbia University professor of philosophy. His son has just revealed daunting news that has made him realize its time to retire and concentrate on enjoying his golden years with his loving wife. What he doesn’t know is how much his “being” may touch those around him: a troubled student; a philandering husband, and a man fighting drug addiction.
"Anesthesia" opens in theaters and On Demand on January 8, 2016. Watch the trailer below.
This looks intense and this cast is stellar. I have no idea if "Kristen Stewart is being Kristen Stewart," as I don\’t know the woman. Yet, I\’m reasonably certain that, according to some, she must have Dissociative Identity Disorder because every time I see her (which is often) she\’s playing someone vastly different. If she is just being herself, pour girl\’s going to need a great deal of professional help to pull it together.
You ommitted to mention Kristen\’s other projects coming out in 2016. In addition to Woody Allen and Olivier Assayas films, she also has Kelly Reichardt\’s film Certain Women debuting in Sundance in January 2016 and Ang Lee\’s Billy Lynn… opening in November 2016. Kristen\’s publicist and PR team usually don\’t share news of her film projects until they are almost in Preproduction stage so I am sure she has other projects that have not been announced for 2017 in addition to the Untitled Lizzie Borden Project. So excited for what\’s coming in 2016 and 2017. She is just amazing and working non-stop.
