In the exclusive clip, we see Seberg become tired of her reputation as America’s sweetheart, and start to speak out in support of civil rights movements.
Most people are familiar with Jean Seberg’s style credentials, thanks, in part, to the US actor’s roles in Jean-Luc Godard’s films –– which made her an icon of French New Wave cinema. But what of her political activism? A highly-anticipated Amazon Original biopic, starring Kristen Stewart as Seberg, explores just that.
After Hakim Jamal introduced Seberg to the Black Panthers, Seberg’s political activism took precedence over her film career. In the exclusive clip below, we see Seberg become tired of her reputation as America’s sweetheart, and start to speak out in support of civil rights movements. Her actions in support of the Black Panthers saw her monitored by J Edgar Hoover’s FBI.
Seberg – who died at the age of 40 – remains a style icon, but the biopic looks set to focus on her quest for a fairer world, rather than her wardrobe.
