Um - is this a Remember Me Promotion or Yellow Handkerchief?
I saw this video where Kristen talks about Rob in Remember Me and thought 'that's cool" then looked for more about "The Yellow Handkercheif" but found that there were few to none... almost all the clips are pulled back to "Twilight" and "Rob" and.... I feel bad for Kristen's TYH co-star, Eddie Redmayne, who kind of just sits cross armed enduring the show....

It's quite amusing - at first - but after a while it just gets old.... Actors need to be appreciated for their individual roles and media needs to be professional and have journalistic integrity.... too often MTV showcases neither!
See Kristen talk about Rob & Remember Me here
and about 3D Breaking Dawn Rumours Here.
This one doesn't directly tie back to Twilight, but everyone was thinking it... KStew discusses "Love Stories"
Twilight Lexicon posted this:
There are 7 more interviews each from 35 seconds to 1 minute 32 seconds. The commercials and the intro drum riff are longer than some of the videos. Kristen and her costar, Eddie Redmayne, (who was an incredibly good sport to sit there like a potted palm) were there for the Yellow Hankerchief press junket. Somehow the majority of the questions all worked back to Twilight. They culminate in the video below where Eddie just rolls his eyes and lets Kristen answer the question. There was next to nothing asked about the movie the Yellow Hankerchief, which is what this press conference was for.
We hope these interviews don’t foreshadow a trend. It sort of reminded us how Colin Firth keeps getting asked Mr. Darcy questions 15 years after the infamous wet shirt pond swim. Please let the Remember Me press junket not be an endless barrage of peppering Robert Pattinson with Twilight questions.

Kristen Stewart talks kissing, Breaking Dawn, Eddie and Rob.
E Online's Marc Malkin reports posts:
Breaking Dawn isn't officially a go yet. Neither is the plan to make two movies instead of one.
"I have been told to be ready for November," Kristen Stewart tells me. "I mean, it looks like a 'yes,' but it's still not concrete."
Stewart believes the story in the fourth book in the Twilight series "absolutely warrants" being two films. "It would be hard to cram all of it into one movie," she said earlier today while promoting her new drama The Yellow Handkerchief.
Things have certainly changed since Stewart and Robert Pattinson signed on for the first flick...
"We didn't even know we were going to make a second one," Stewart said. "We were just like, 'It's really cool. It's different and we've never seen a love story like this.'…I thought it would just be another cool Catherine Hardwicke movie."
And just because Stewart doesn't like her private life being examined and the overzealous paparazzi that come along with the fame that doesn't mean she resents—in any way!—the Twilight phenomenon. "But I can't say I don't want that, because people take it to the extreme and say that I hate it," she explains. "No, no, no! That's not true."
Eddie Redmayne, Stewart's Handkerchief costar who also happens to be one of Pattinson's old pals, admits it's been "surreal" watching his friends become two of the world's, well, most famous stars.
"When we were at Sundance with Yellow Handkerchief, Kristen was like, 'I'm going to go do this film with Rob Pattinson," Redmayne remembered. "I was like, 'I know Rob!' and Kristen said, 'What's he like?'"
In Handkerchief, Stewart and Redmayne play teenagers who befriend an ex-con William Hurt who is looking for his ex-wife Maria Bello.
Stewart and Redmayne share a kiss in the flick. I ask Stewart if she really meant it when she told my pal Elizabeth Snead at Zap2it that Mr. Redmayne was a better kisser than Mr. Pattinson.
Redmayne tried answering for her. "A slightly off-the-beaten-path person against the most handsome vampire in the world?" Redmayne said. "I will take my hat off to Rob on that one—and his skin shines!"
"But his skin doesn't shine in the real world," Kristen quickly fired back. "You're in the real world."
And just because Stewart did her own singing playing Joan Jett in next month's The Runaways, don't expect her to be following in Pattinson's footsteps by recording a song for a Twilight soundtrack.
"I love being an actor," she explained. "I would totally play another person in a band, but Kristen is not going to be in a band."
Of course, keep in mind the Source is Marc Malkin, and we all know how his "perspective" on things can be slightly swayed.... hehehehe.
Kristen Stewart talks about 3D Breaking Dawn....
Twilight Lexicon says:
We debunked the rumor that Breaking Dawn would be made in 3-D the other day(don’t worry, it’s not going to be 3-D). We made a joke that Rob’s hair might accidentally take someone’s eye out that way. We think Kristen’s analogy and reaction is funnier!
IESB Interview with Kristen Stewart
IESB has a great interview with Kristen Stewart:
In The Yellow Handkerchief, actress Kristen Stewart plays Martine, a lonely and troubled teenager who heads out on a road trip with Gordy (Eddie Redmayne), a young man looking to get closer to her, and Brett (William Hurt), an ex-convict, just released from prison after serving six years for manslaughter, who is trying to reconcile himself with his past. The trio are all going in the same direction, but quickly find their relationships forging and changing in many ways.
At the press day for the film, Kristen Stewart talked about what drew her to this smaller, independent film. She also gave an update on her own feeling about whether Breaking Dawn, the final book in the Twilight Saga, should be split into two films, how excited she is about the March release of The Runaways and her hopes to make the drama K-11 with her mother at the helm.
Q: What was it like to play this character, when you hadn't done too many major roles, at the time you did this film?
Kristen: Anytime you have to play a person who is not yourself, you're stepping out of a comfort zone, but that's what we do. If the role is bigger, that's just more to chew on, and that's always good.
Q: What about Martine resonated for you?
Kristen: I can relate to her, in that she's such the typical girl that really wants to be out there and smiling and totally in the middle of whatever is going on, but has been embarrassed one too many times and has just gone, "I can't do that anymore." I feel like she's also isolated herself. She's put herself above everyone else. She can't talk to people because they've let her down too many times and, in reacting to that, she made herself better than them. And, through this journey, which is such a cool thing to see such a young person go through, she realizes, "Oh, God, I never looked at you and now I'm opening my eyes and I can see you, and I was wrong." I liked that.
Q: Did you know this film was based on a Japanese film, and did you see that original film?
Kristen: I knew it was based on a Japanese original, but didn't watch it because apparently it was just starkly different. It was just a different movie completely.
Q: What was producer Arthur Cohn's involvement with the film?
Kristen: He had such a faith in the material. He has a very old school sense of, "I'm the producer and I'm going to take care of everybody, and the most important thing here is the movie, the performances, and chocolate and watches."
Q: Your character doesn't have any luck with guys, from her father who leaves to the guy who dumps her at the beginning of the film. What was it about Gordy (Eddie Redmayne) that you think appealed to Martine?
Kristen: She probably wouldn't have needed to be won over, had she just opened her eyes and not been so affected by the other guys who had hurt her. She's the type of girl who really wants to let herself hang out. Every time she does that or puts herself out there, she gets disappointed by people. The journey that they take, a lot of revelatory things happen.
For me, what made Martine re-evaluate Gordy was how Brett (William Hurt) looked at him. And then, there's this thing that happens when we hit a deer and he had this really emotional reaction to the deer. He helps her out earlier as well. She's dropping prejudices that she didn't really know that she had. She's becoming more open to people. She's very closed off, in the beginning, and realizes that she doesn't actually want to be like that at all.
Q: As a young actor, what was it like to work with someone like William Hurt?
Kristen: He is absolutely the most attentive, hard-working actor I've ever worked with. I say that about actors that I like to work with. I say, "Oh, they're really hard-working, I really appreciate them," about a lot of people, but you don't know more than him about basically everything. Regarding the story, he just makes you work so much harder to understand things. I wouldn't understand this movie as I do, if it wasn't for him. I would have a completely different impression, I'm sure.
Q: Were there any particular scenes in this that stood out for you?
Kristen: That scene where we first kiss was THE scene. It was a really big deal, especially the way it was written. My character was so explosive and so sensitive. You would never expect so much from this tiny little thing. It was like, "What is wrong with you?" And, her problems are so completely far away from anything Gordy could ever understand. It's like opposite sides of a magnet. I can't even watch that scene.
That was what I was most intimidated by, technically speaking. She's so explosive and emotional in that scene, and so raw in that moment, and you don't know her very well yet. It was a very defining moment for her, so I was nervous about doing that wrong and having it seem out of nowhere. I didn't want her to seem like an arbitrarily weird, emotional girl, for no reason.
The characters were drawn so wholly and completely that, if we didn't play them that way, they wouldn't have made sense. It would have been a bit of a random story because it's so quaint. It's not like all these plot events happen. So, all these little character things are unspoken. I was nervous about that. But, the last scene of the movie was what I really put everything into because it was written differently as well. We got there and we didn't have a whole lot of time to shoot. It was raining and they were like, "Okay, we have 10 minutes to get this." The way it was written, she was so emotional. Everything affects her. She has such thin skin and feels everything so much. That moment where everything comes to fruition, it needs to be effective.
Q: Have accents always come easy for you?
Kristen: I had to go to school for it, so they could break it down. There's 15 accents, just within Louisiana. And then, you can fall back on it.
Q: What was it like to shoot in so many different locations?
Kristen: We were everywhere. But, it was cool though because it's a road trip movie, so we felt like we were on that a little bit. The set just went around everywhere.
Q: Did you get to have any fun in New Orleans at all, or where you working too much?
Kristen: We shot in the summer, so I had just turned 17. I love New Orleans. I've worked there since, also underage. I'm still underage. New Orleans is such a going-out town, but just walking around is awesome. It's an amazing place to be. I can go see music, but I have to stand outside the club and be like, "That's really great."
Q: Is there anything about New Orleans that you specifically enjoyed?
Kristen: I liked petting the mules that walked around Jackson Street. They were like, "Come on, take a ride!," and I was like, "No way!" I just wanted to pet them. I wasn't going to be dragged around by this thing.
Q: When you have the opportunity to take a road trip yourself, do they become profound journeys of self-discovery?
Kristen: The only road trip that I've ever taken was back from Portland. When I was up there doing Twilight, I bought a little truck and drove home. It wasn't the most transformative experience, but it was fun. It gave me a sense of freedom. I was going away from something that was a rather intense experience.
Q: Because you spend huge amounts of time away from home, when you go somewhere on location, do you try to make it more like home or do you really drown yourself in the lifestyle, wherever you're at?
Kristen: I try to do that. I know actors who go on location and make their trailer like their home. They literally put pictures up and stuff. I don't do that. I really like being where I am. You're made to pretend that you actually live there.
Q: Since you have your pick right now, what attracts you to a role? What do you look for when you get a script these days?
Kristen: As much as you can say, "I'd like to do this because it's different from what I've done before," I can't really plan things out like that. Despite whether or not a character fits my description and the script is good, what actually drives me to do something like this, which is a really bizarre thing, if you think about it, is more than just to be in a movie. It has to speak to me, in some way, and that's always hard to describe. I don't know what I want to do. And, this is the first time I don't have my next job lined up. I have a totally clean horizon and that's actually pretty exciting.
Q: Is that a scary place to be, not knowing what you're going to do next, in a business that's so unpredictable?
Kristen: To be honest, you don't look at scripts that are very clearly just framework and they just want to put a dollar sign in the picture frame, but that's so obvious. I only want to do work that I find to be moving, and that's something that I can't be specific about. I'm totally lucky and I can't believe that I have more opportunity than I've ever had. It's awesome.
Q: You did this film before the Twilight films. Would you have approached things differently, now that you have this international profile?
Kristen: I guess because I don't hold the reins, I really follow my heart. It would really be a shame that just because I did one movie, and I know it's four or five films, but it's one story and one project for me because it's the same character, it would affect choices that I make. I don't have this scheme for how people are going to receive my movies, in the order that I do them, and why I do scary movies or movies about disaffected teens, which I get all the time. They're just people that I really wanted to play. I don't know what the hell I'm doing. I'm just playing parts that speak to me.
Q: Do you follow your heart when you're acting as well?
Kristen: Yeah. You get hired on a job and I had had roles in movies before, that I took really seriously and really liked, and I learned that, if I was a fairly impulsive actor or I felt something, I didn't need to sit down and go, "Okay, this is why," and it helps so much. I understand the story so much more because of that.
Q: What are your feelings on Breaking Dawn? Do you think they're going to do two films? Do you know when that will happen?
Kristen: Probably in November, but I don't know if it's going to be one or two films.
Q: Are you contracted for two movies, or are you contracted for one?
Kristen: I don't know, actually. I can't imagine that they wouldn't want to do two films. The story so completely warrants two films, and it would be really disappointing to have to lose a bunch of the story. I would like to do it as two movies, but to be perfectly honest, I don't know what they're going to do.
Q: The Runaways is getting a lot of buzz now too. How has that been, and what has the experience of the festival circuit been like?
Kristen: We all knew that, if it did well, it would be a Sundance movie. But, now it's being released. It became a bigger deal than we thought, which is just always very exciting. Sundance was awesome. I love Sundance. It's one of the only places that you can go, show your movie, and then talk to 300 people who just saw it. It's just a different experience.
Q: What's it like when your mom calls you and says, "I'm going to direct a film and I'd like you to be in it"?
Kristen: I wish it was like that. We're trying to get it (K-11) off the ground. If she called me right now and said, "We're making the movie," I would be really excited. We're really close and, at the same time, we're creatively very, very different. It would be cool. I think that we could actually leave the family thing. I feel like we both like what we do so much that we could actually work on something and do something pretty cool

Kristen Stewart in The Yellow Handkerchief this February
Forget the supernatural: In Kristen Stewart's next project, the New Moon star is taking a deeply human turn, playing a troubled teenager in the indie flick The Yellow Handkerchief, due in theaters in February. Costarring William Hurt, Mario Bello and Eddie Redmayne, the movie explores the relationships between three strangers who embark on a road trip through post-Katrina Louisiana. Stewart plays Martine, a teen who hopes to escape her family, while Hurt plays Brett Hanson, a man who has to choose between his ex-wife (played by Bello) or what's next....
"The part of Kristen in Twilight is completely different from the one she plays in The Yellow Handkerchief, which is particularly interesting for Kristen's fans all over the world," says the film's Oscar winning producer Arthur Cohn. "In my personal opinion, from a pure acting point of view, The Yellow Handkerchief was a more difficult part to play."
Cohn says that Stewart got the part thanks to the recommendation of one famous former costar.
"It was Jodie Foster, whom I respect and admire, who wholeheartedly recommended Kristen," he says of her Panic Room costar, "and has always considered her a truly excellent young actress."

Kristen Stewart's The Yellow Handkerchief
Check out the new poster and trailer for Kristen Stewart’s upcoming drama, The Yellow Handkerchief!
The film is about three strangers of two generations who embark on a road trip through post Katrina Louisiana. Along the way, relationships forge and change in a myriad of ways, leading to the possibility of second chances at life and love.
