Stewart has been acting in movies since the early 2000s, but we all know she became best

史都華的演員生涯從 2000 年度前期就開始了，但大家都知道，她最有名的

known for the 'Twilight' series starting in 2008.

作品是 2008 年開始上映的《暮光之城》系列

So here's the thing…the 'Twilight' films…well, let's just say that they won't be compared

事情是這樣的⋯⋯《暮光之城》系列⋯⋯就這麼說吧，短期內不可能

to 'Citizen Kane' anytime soon.

和《大國民》齊名

When the public deemed Stewart “the girl from 'Twilight,” her name became synonymous

當大眾開始稱呼史都華為「暮光女」後，她的名字

with the film series.

和那個電影系列成為同義詞

When something like this happens, people tend to confuse their opinion on the films with

這種事發生後，人們常會混淆他們對電影本身的評價

their opinion on the actors.

和對演員的評價

I remember commonly hearing from friends and people on the internet that Stewart was a

我記得以前常聽親朋好友，和網友毒舌說，她是一個

“bad actress.”

「很爛的演員」

Well, she's not.

她其實根本不是

Like not at all.

完全不是

She's actually really good.

她其實真的非常厲害

While she surely doesn't give a career-best performance in any of the 'Twilight' films,

雖然她在《暮光之城》系列中的表現絕對不是她的職涯高峰，

a lot of the issues lie in the fact that her naturalistic approach to acting isn't really

很多問題其實出於她自然派的演技不太適合

suited for dreamy fantasy, let alone the artificial sounding dialogue.

奇幻類的故事，況且台詞也很不自然

Watch these two clips back-to-back.

來看看這兩段影片

Which one has the better acting?

在哪一段中演技較好？

The second one, right?

第二段，對吧？

And why is that?

為什麼呢？

It's really just context.

其實完全是脈絡的關係

The scene from 'Twilight' has dialogue that may deliver an unintentional laugh or two,

《暮光之城》那一幕的對話可能會不小心讓觀眾嗤笑

it has the overly dramatic score, and these completely unnecessary camera moves that take

那幕誇張的音效，和過多的鏡頭移動讓觀眾

us out of the moment, and most importantly, they call attention to the acting.

無法投入劇情，更重要的是，使人放大檢視演員的表現

Even the best of the best aren't going to nail it every time with lackluster filmmaking.

就算是演技最高超的演員，拍攝手法爛，也不會表現得很完美

And it's not like Stewart just all the sudden became a great actress after the 'Twilight'

而且史都華也不是演完《暮光之城》之後就突然變得很厲害，

films, which seems to be the common consensus.

雖然這似乎是一般大眾的看法

She was turning in great performances both before and during her time with the 'Twilight'

她在《暮光之城》之前，和拍攝期間，也有很多很好的表現，

series, but the vampire saga overshadowed her great work.

只是那個系列的光環遮蔽了她其他很棒的作品

Stewart was able to pull off something that is almost impossible in Hollywood.

不過史都華還是成功的為了自己的職涯做了在好萊塢幾乎不可能達成的改變

She separated herself from a popular franchise and took her career in a much more serious

她成功地讓自己的名字和一個受歡迎的系列脫鉤，轉向較正經的、

and suitable direction.

較適合的方向

She has since gravitated towards smaller, more artful films where she was able to show

她轉向拍攝較小眾、藝術層次較高的電影，使她得以向

the world what she can really do.

世人展現她真正的才華

In fact, her recent and criminally underrated work in 'Personal Shopper' is perhaps my favorite

事實上，她在她最新的，也是最被低估的演出作品《私人採購》中的演出應該是我

of her performances.

最欣賞的

Films like this allow Stewart to play up to her strengths as an actress and deliver something

像這種類型的電影讓史都華能夠發揮她作為演員的長才，做出

that is truly memorable and haunting.

令人難以忘懷的表現

Kristen Stewart is not “the girl from 'Twilight.”

別再叫克莉絲汀・史都華「暮光女」了

She is one of the best actresses working today.

她是當今活躍的演員中，演技最高超的之一
