‘Die, Love’: Jennifer Lawrence’s pinnacle of existential breakdown

Die, Love is a film that wins us through all the little details inserted, whether through sounds, items on stage and mainly through performances. In the film that marks the return of Lynne Ramsayyou can even almost smell through the screen.

All of this is due to excellent work by the directorwho hadn’t made a film in eight years, since You Were Never Really Here. Furthermore, the brilliant photography of Seamus McGarvey (Nocturnal Animals) and the carefully fitted trackswhich express precisely the feelings of the characters.

Em Die, LoveRamsay adapted the novel by the Argentine writer Ariana Harwicz. The plot revolves around a donut from home who has his first child and lives isolated with a absent husband. The two main characters are Grace (Jennifer Lawrence), the mother who ends up having psychotic breaks during the film, and Jackson (Robert Pattinson), o husband “naive” who tries at all costs to achieve regain sanity of the wife.

In this scenario, we have Grace as the total focus of the plotmaking Jennifer Lawrence shine throughout the film with chaos, animality and its impulses sexual. Robert Pattinson is also very important as a support for the actress can reach even higher of its capacity.

The film suffers a little with its assemblyit seems that some things are confused and poorly fitted. But, in certain moment from the film everything fits and makes the plot make even more sense. In this way, I say again to importance of paying attention to details of the film to have a experience even better with Die, Love.

It will probably be a film that will divide people a lotbut in any case it is a very important storymainly for the female audience. And anyone who thinks he is mistaken is mistaken. limited to just a “film about postpartum depression”.

Die, Love treats story of a woman (Grace) who suffers from abandonment problems and you don’t know deal in society. Through your husband (Jackson) she can find moments of peace and comfortbut this comes into conflict when having to deal with with your problems. Grace’s chaos is shown little by little until it reaches her critical momentsbut never with Jackson giving up on her. THE disorder in the character is so much that she realizes that her husband and his son would be better without herculminating in its existential collapse. The long is distributed by Paris Filmes it is near the mbistudio partner.

Die, Love debuted in Brazilian cinemas this February 27th. Will Jennifer Lawrence reach the Oscars with her performance? Or perhaps a nomination from the director for best adapted screenplay?
