Review by Carlie Newman
One such is Lynne Ramsey’s new film DIE MY LOVE with Jennifer Lawrence giving a stupendous performance as a woman descending into postpartum psychosis. Before having a baby and even for a short time afterwords we see Grace (Jennifer Laurence) and her husband Jackson (Robert Pattinson) having exuberant sex together.
But the couple have moved to an isolated house in the country and Grace is left with a new baby alone while her husband travels on business and possibly has sex with others while away from home. The film is adapted from the award-winning novel of the same name by Ariana Harwicz.
It captures the extreme psychological disturbances that can occur with new motherhood. Laurence is amazing in the role and Lynne Ramsey captures what is actually happening and what Grace imagines. Hallucinations alongside actual events are sometimes confusing but the film is physically impressive as well as thrilling.
DIE MY LOVE IS NOW AVAILABLE TO BUY ON DVD, BLU-RAY & UHD BLU-RAY
