Wise Beyond Her Years; Q'orianka Kilcher: Redefining the look of female stardom.(Cover Story)
Byline: Sean Smith

"I was crying, saying, 'What am I going to do?!' " She laughs. "It was really funny." No kidding.

The filmmakers had scoured the globe for the woman who could portray the Native American icon. When they put Kilcher in front of the camera, "our jaws dropped," says producer Sarah Green. "Her face is so changeable. And there's this depth that pulls you in. She's just... mesmerizing."
