THE CAKE EATERS
Review by Roger Ebert
Kristen Stewart has been in feature films since 2003, but last year, still only 18, she became a big star as a vampire's girlfriend in "Twilight." Now comes her remarkable performance in "The Cake Eat...ers," made two years ago, to show her as a very different kind of lover in a very different kind of film.
It's the directorial debut of Mary Stuart Masterson, herself a fine actress ("Fried Green Tomatoes"). Stewart plays Georgia, a high school student with a degenerative muscular disease. It causes her to walk unsteadily, stand crookedly and, as Beagle tells her, talk like she's had a few beers. Beagle (Aaron Stanford) is the kid she meets at a flea market. She asks him to come over to her house that evening. Beagle says, uh ... ah ... yeah, sure. He has no problems with her condition; it's just that he's terrified of girls.
