Can you guys believe it’s only 10 days to the On the Road red carpet at Cannes? It was beginning to feel like this day was never going to come …
Anyway, here’s film critic Jon Frosch’s take on which performances to watch at the festival and Garrett and Kristen are both included (psst, Jon, it’s spelled “Hedlund”).
Faces of Cannes: Ten performances to watch

Garrett Hedlund, “On the Road”
Until now, Hedlund has mostly been in action films and comedies, but his role as a Beat Generation hero in Walter Salles’s Jack Kerouac adaptation will require more than all-American good looks and an affable smile. Will he be up to the task? (ed. – I think we all know the answer to that – Laura)
Kristen Stewart, “On the Road”
Pattinson’s partner in “Twilight” and in real life has also struggled to carve out a niche beyond the vampire franchise. Will her performance as free spirit Marylou in Salles’s “On the Road” pave the way for more substantial leading lady roles?
Read the rest of the list at France24. There is also a really interesting podcast at the bottom of the page.
Thank you, @vonch for the link!
