Kirsten Dunst is on the "verge of a breakdown", it has been reported.

The 'Spider-Man' actress' "erratic behaviour" at Utah's Sundance Film Festival has raised fears for her mental health.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: "Kirsten is on the verge of a breakdown. She came late, left early and acted erratic at a Sundance event. One of her friends apologised, saying, 'She is not in a good place right now.' "

However, Kirsten's representative has dismissed reports the actress is spiralling out of control, insisting: "Kirsten is fine."

The 25-year-old star, who split from British rocker Johnny Borrell last year, has not been seen out in public for weeks.

In 2007, Kirsten sparked controversy by saying she believes the world would be a "better place" if more people smoked marijuana.

The 'Marie Antoinette' star said: "I drink moderately, I've tried drugs. I do like weed. I have a different outlook on marijuana than America does.

"I've never been a major smoker, but I think America's view on weed is ridiculous. I mean - are you kidding me? If everyone smoked weed, the world would be a better place."
