Now she is being asked to step into the other role, that of the older Helena. She departs with her assistant (Kristen Stewart) to rehearse in Sils Maria; a remote region of the Alps. A young Hollywood starlet with a penchant for scandal (Chloë Grace Moretz) is to take on the role of Sigrid, and Maria finds herself on the other side of the mirror, face to face with an ambiguously charming woman who is, in essence, an unsettling reflection of herself. Directed by Olivier Assayas; Starring Kristen Stewart, Juliette Binoche, Chloe Grace Moretz, Angela Winkler, Lars Eidinger, Johnny Flynn. Rated R for language and brief graphic nudity/124m The Water Diviner Fri.-Sun. early show: 12:25  Daily showtimes:  3:05, 5:45, 8:25 An epic adventure set four years after the devastating battle of Gallipoli in Turkey during World War I.
