Incidentally, Stewart and director Benedict Andrews also said at the Toronto International Film Festival that there were times during filming when they could sense Seberg's presence on set.
"Any time there was a cat going running cross the set, anytime something strange happened, it felt spooky, ghostly," Stewart said. "There was s--t going down that didn't make sense and I felt, there she is."
While the finer details of Seberg and some of its most intimate moments are more of the based-in-truth variety, the cold facts of the matter aren't any less shocking.
And, as Stewart—a former child star turned tabloid magnet and cinema and fashion darling who remains politically outspoken, despite her own wariness toward about sharing too much of herself with the world—pointed out, it remains an unfortunately timely story to tell.
"Something in me is not equipped to be in America and play those games, selling yourself over martinis, being charming and gay and bright. It's not worth the fight," Seberg told the New York Times in 1974. "They always transform you into everything you aren't."
