Dir Olivier Assayas
It’s easy to see how this bravely bizarre film garnered both boos and positive reviews at Cannes. As a personal shopper slash spiritualist medium, Kristen Stewart could be illuminating the way staff move like spectres through the lives of the rich, or it could just be an excuse for plenty of product placement by Chanel. However, the movie’s techy twist on the ghost story will convince millennials and it offers an intriguing update on the usual marriage of female sexuality and horror. As well as giving us the queerest straight girl I’ve ever seen on screen, K-Stew carries off slightly camp thrills with a mesmeric performance.
