Im ready to be changed by all the films and changed by the people around us.
I think thats why were here.
Watch on Deadline
Stewart was quizzed on her criteria for a prize-winning film.
Her reply suggests that under her jury watch the field is wide open.
Its an interesting thing to be, quote-unquote, in charge of deciding what the best film is.

You know what I mean?
Thats something that will be fun to do.
But yeah, sorry.
I dont have like a great list of stock filmmakers in my pocket for you.
