Kirsten Dunst is still promoting The Two Faces of January, and I really, really wish Viggo Mortensen was the one doing interviews on behalf of the film, mostly because Kiki is either full of nonsense about traditional gender roles or she?s giving the interview equivalent of watching paint dry. The worst part is that Kiki appears on this special ?Summer Issue? edition of W Magazine at the behest of her friend, mentor and first major art-house director, Sofia Coppola. Coppola loves Kiki. Kiki acts like she?s barely tolerating Sofia?s questions. I did have a few moments of ?O RLY?? with Kiki, especially when she talks about how she takes her time to find the right roles, like she?s Sandra Bullock or something. You can read the full W Magazine piece here and here are some highlights:
Kiki on maintaining mystique: ?I limit the number of films I do and take my time choosing projects.?
Working with a director she didn’t like: “I have, and it takes all the fun out of what you do. You just get through it instead of having a meaningful experience.”
Whether a director has ever “pounced” on her: “No [laughs]. I don?t give off that vibe. I think that you court that stuff, and to me it?s crossing a boundary that would hinder the trust in your working relationship.”
Kiki?s best advice: ?I?m good at trusting my instincts, and I think it?s important to listen to that. My mom would always tell me, ?Trust your gut.??
Her favorite movie stars from another era: ?River Phoenix and Paul Newman.?
Her favorite age: ?My favorite age is now. I love my friendships, and I know I have fun things to look forward to. Hardest age was 27; I had to figure out how to navigate differently through life.?
Making bio-pics, playing real people: ?I would love to play Jean Harlow! It?s hard to make those kinds of films, but I?m open to suggestions; it just has to be the right one.?
What she would do besides acting: ?I love interior design?maybe I?d do that, but if I did an interior, I?d want to live in it. I would stick to a creative job.?
The red carpet, working with a stylist: ?I have to say it?s the last thing I want to think about. If you have someone who understands how to just make you look like yourself, then you?ve found someone great. I remember a time when it was more fun and not every little thing was critiqued.?
Nudity on film: ?I don?t mind it if it feels appropriate for the film, but it?s never not nerve-racking.?

To me, the stuff about being “pounced on” by directors could be taken a few ways, and Sofia wasn’t very explicit in her questioning. But it does seem like Kiki is saying that if a director employs the casting couch for actresses, it’s the woman’s fault because she was asking for it. Which falls into line with her thoughts on traditional gender roles and all of that. So, yeah, she probably meant it that way.

We discussed the film Two Faces of January briefly in February, when Viggo Mortensen turned up to the Berlin Film Festival. Viggo stars with Kristen Dunst and Oscar Isaac in an international thriller set in what looks like the early 1960s. Kiki is promoting that film now, with a cover profile for Harper?s Bazaar UK. The photoshoot is rather lovely, I have to admit. Even though Kiki is on permanent Bump Watch (mostly because of her slouchy posture), not all of the photos are making me think she?s pregnant. As for the interview? well, Kiki has some ideas about gender roles.
Kiki on Viggo Mortensen: ?He?s surprisingly hilarious. The first time I met him, he was very reserved. It was in an elevator. I was like, ‘Hi.’ He was like, ‘Oh, hi.’ I learned later he was very shy. So I was nervous, even a little scared, to work with him. I thought, ?This is going to be intense.? Then I got the whole other side, which I don?t think many people know. He should do comedy, I?ve told him that? I?m sure he wouldn?t be happy with people knowing how fun he is.?
Kiki on fashion: ?I cared more about outfits when I was younger? the older I get, the lazier I get. Have you ever heard of Free City sweats? They?re sweatpants, but very, very comfortable. I can get very comfortable.” This admission prompts another: Dunst also owns a onesie. It has monkeys on it and she has worn it once, on Christmas Eve, when she was given it by her mother?s friend. “I just took silly pictures in it because it looks ridiculous.”
She wants to direct: “I would love it. I love getting immersed in things and being busy all the time. It?s just that I?m not going to write my own script. I don?t think I can, I honestly don?t. It would be easier to find a book to adapt. But, I?m not interested in directing right now. Maybe in three years. Who knows? Maybe I?ll have children then. I probably will ? one day ? want to try it,” concludes Dunst, who is dating the actor Garrett Hedlund.
Being a child actress: “None of [my friends] were actors, really. I actually underplayed myself [at school] because I didn?t want to be a target. The fact that I was an actress made me nervous. I never wanted to be called names or anything. I was afraid of that.”
Gender roles: “I feel like the feminine has been a little undervalued. We all have to get our own jobs and make our own money, but staying at home, nurturing, being the mother, cooking ? it?s a valuable thing my mum created. And sometimes, you need your knight in shining armour. I?m sorry. You need a man to be a man and a woman to be a woman. That?s why relationships work?”
Her BFF Molly: “We?re going to live together in a house, and who gives a **** what we eat, and who cares how many cats we have? Because you know, you have your girlfriends for life.”

If Kirsten had discussed gender roles with one big caveat ? ?this is how I feel, this is what works for me? ? I think people wouldn?t feel like her statement was one big WTF. For the record, for some couples, for some families, those ?traditional? 1950s gender roles work. Sometimes they don?t. Not every woman needs a knight in shining armor to bring home the bacon. Not every woman wants to be barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen. And it?s asinine for Kiki to generalize about ?that?s why relationships work,? as if there aren?t millions of people who don?t have that kind of relationship and they still manage to have functioning families and relationships.

Here is Kirsten Dunst heading out of the hospital after getting her injured right hand checked in Los Angeles. She happened to be wearing the same exact dress that Rosie Huntington-Whiteley wore the day before? and she happened to be going to a doctor?s office as well. What a coincidence!
Poor Kristen. Want me to kiss it (or anything else) and make it better!

A lot of people give Kirsten Dunst a hard time. They call her snaggle tooth, ugly and many other nasty things. I personally think she is alright and any girl that skinny with a rack like she has is alright in my book. Not to mention her booty is pretty solid in those leggings. So
