Kris­ten Stew­art feels a ghost­ly pres­ence in the new Per­son­al Shop­per trailer

08 Feb 2017

Words by David Jenkins

She plays a griev­ing celebri­ty assis­tant in Olivi­er Assayas’ upcom­ing mystery.

We’re big fans of the French film­mak­er Olivi­er Assayas. His lat­est effort, Per­son­al Shop­per, sees the writer/​director reunite with Kris­ten Stew­art fol­low­ing their fruit­ful col­lab­o­ra­tion on 2014’s Clouds of Sils Maria, for which she picked up the César Award for Best Sup­port­ing Actress.

She’s equal­ly great in Per­son­al Shop­per, a Parisian ​“ghost sto­ry” about a young Amer­i­can women work­ing as a high-fash­ion shop­ping assis­tant, who secret­ly dress­es up in the haute cou­ture wears of her celebri­ty boss. We won’t give any­thing else away just now, but we will attempt to whet your appetite fur­ther by leav­ing you with a line from our first look review, which describes the film as ​“a study of grief, a satire, a mur­der mys­tery [and] a Hitch­cock­ian thriller” all rolled into one.
