After vampire romance 'Twilight', put the life of its star, Kristin Stewart, 18, on a roller coaster to fame, it seems fair enough that the theme of her next film, centres round an amusement park.
Premiering this week at the Sundance Film Festival, 'Adventureland', is just one of a string of quirky movies Stewart stars in, since her first film aged 11. However, not till 'Twilight' struck box office gold, did Stewart receive the sort of attention she has now been receiving.
Playing Bella Swan, a love-struck teenager, adored by millions of young girls who can't get enough of the series of books on which the 'Twilight' is based, Stewart, a child of Hollywood, one parent is a stage manager and the other a script supervisor, her Los Angeles upbringing has helped her handle the media circus that comes with being a Hollywood celebrity.
Her new film, an off-beat romance 'Adventureland' is a coming-of-age film, wherein Jesse Eisenberg as James, a recent college graduate takes a summer job at an amusement park, where he falls for Em Lewin (Stewart), a tortured though sincere young carnival worker, only to find what an adventure true love is, in and of itself.
