Kristen Stewart, Dakota Fanning are Sundance 'Runaways'

kristen-stewart-dakota-fanning-sundance.jpgFemale rock stars are not so uncommon today -- but in the mid-1970s, a girl with a guitar was seen as at best a curiosity and at worst a freak.

"The Runaways" will give fans a glimpse into that time. The movie, which opens in March, stars "Twilight: New Moon's" Kristen Stewart as Joan Jett and Dakota Fanning as Cherie Currie, the leaders of the all-girl band that had a brief but memorable run in the '70s. The movie had its premiere at the Sundance Film Festival over the weekend, and Stewart and Fanning attended the premiere and talked about the band's struggles.

"I think this movie will kind of open the eyes of people our age that don't really know it was so tough for them once upon a time," Fanning says in the video below. She and Stewart also talk about Jett and healing power of rock 'n' roll. Have a look.

Runaways is exactly what I was thinking,I took my daughter to the sundance film festival to see christen and dakota but she really wanted to see them I explained to her that it was going to be extremly cold but she didn't care we waited 3hrs to see them there was alot of paparazi and a couple of fans what do u expect its utah they showed up my 11yr old screamed for a picture or a wave but she got nothing but tears and disappointment and begged me to leave and never wants to go back I understand that stars want privacy but just like gary colmen your not going to get it here so don't expect Thanks.
