Super Shorts: Cutlass

By Elisabeth Donnelly

Cool cars, hot girls: take a trip down memory lane in Kate Hudson's short Cutlass, featuring Kristen Stewart, Dakota Fanning, Virginia Madsen, and Kurt Russell.

Glamour Reel Moments is a cool program—taking real life stories from Glamour readers, they're then used as the basis of short films, and these female-centric films provide a chance for Hollywood women to make their directorial debut. (And it benefits Film Aid International, too.)

Kate Hudson's Cutlass came out of this program and has made the rounds at film festivals, including a premiere at last year's editon of the Tribeca Film Festival. Cutlass is a sweet mother-daughter story that starts with Virginia Madsen as a woman reflecting on an important moment in her life—when she first laid eyes on that sweet, sweet Cutlass car. Really, though, it's a showcase for the charm of Twilight star Kristen Stewart. Her future co-star in The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Runaways, the adorable Dakota Fanning, also has a small role.

I wanted to watch this film but somehow it is block in my country and I cannot access it. I look for the DVD but I could not find it. Can you tell me how I can watch this film?? I wouldn't mind buying the DVD, just point me to the place I might get it.

Ditto to what Lin said on January 16th.

Further to the 2 comments above this is so annoying. Its a short film you have no intention of releasing either in theaters or on DVD in Australia so why block it other than to annoy people and you continue to be stunned by the existence of torrent sites. Embrace the digital world, you will make more money!!
