Bi-Polar: The Movie

Jennifer Lawrence adds to her already considerable dossier of stealth intelligent women who are secretly bat-stuff crazy loons in this sad tale of aging Vogue cover stars stuck in the Midwest with only the character's ditched successful writing career and Pattinson's one acting class skills to save them. One "horny one moment, the next licking the window/knife-wielding" thrill-ride scene after the next, post-partum depression was never quite like this, kids! At least Sissy Spacek and Nick Nolte show up in nice supporting spots (check out their 1996 film "Affliction." There's a real portrait of age-old family trauma, even if not sponsored by Lancome).

Sammy's Review

Die My Love is full of drama with a touch of deep love which anticipates and unfolds fun. Very cinematic and talented characters with intriguing roles. A must-to-watch. The main character somehow lost her desire to continue being a writer and tries to make a change in search of a new life and beginning. However there is a lurking figure who constantly monitors her daily life in her new home. Here you'll find a different set of thoughts brought to life by talented characters.

It's just not for me, I'm afraid.

Despite its committed performances, occasionally intriguing choices and generally quite gorgeous - and delightfully textured - cinematography, very little about Lynne Ramsay's 'Die My Love (2025)' worked for me, and I'm not sure why. It's definitely well-crafted in almost every area, and it knows what it's doing and does it exactly how it wants to, but it's honestly pretty boring. It says everything it's going to say by the halfway point, and it just keeps going. It's the kind of film that I feel as though I should've liked, especially since my brother - whose taste in cinema is almost identical to mine - genuinely enjoyed it, but I just don't and I can't lie about it. It doesn't move me, it doesn't work its way under my skin, it doesn't excite or delight or even frustrate me. It just plays out in front of me. I can tell it's quite good in its own way, but it simply doesn't connect with me and I'm pretty sure it's not just because I don't have first-hand experience of the subject matter. There have been plenty of movies about people and places and feelings and actions entirely unfamiliar to me, and many of them have found their way into my heart and touched me on a deep level. I'm aware that this kind of reads more as an apology than a review, but I simply can't quite put my finger on why I don't like this feature and therefore don't feel comfortable completely condemning it. It's exactly what it wants and needs to be, but it isn't for me. Sometimes, that's just the way it is I suppose.

Not for everyone, but vital for those it hits.

I knew this type of movie would be for me, but I also understand it's a very niche genre. I think to some level, you have to understand what she's going through to appreciate it. I didn't suffer PPD, but my husband and I were in a car accident that almost killed me and took the life of our 19yr old daughter. We had only just moved to a new state for a fresh start 2mos prior. The year after the accident, I became isolated, depressed, and started to lose it, much in the same as she did. My husband still had to work and provide for me and our other children since I was injured and broken mentally. She literally was living out my intrusive thoughts in the movie. Maybe my situation made it hit close to home and appreciate seeing that on the screen. It also made me feel for my husband who had the weight of the world on his shoulders while grieving and losing me at the same time. My husband and I have been separated for awhile and I don't blame him. The story plays out much like a fractured mind, it's all over the place, but that's the most honest way to depict the story. Despite some negative reviews, I loved it and am glad this movie exists. The performances were amazing, especially Jennifer's. I hope she gets another Oscar for this.

Slow burn, but not for me.

I've watched this movie alone in cinema. I'm not expecting anything at all. But the movie delivered interesting plot and great acting from lead but it quite not brought that exciting part I kind of thought it needed. It was really cinematic but not engaging. I don't know but critic's review is somewhat different to public viewing's opinion about it. I managed to finish the movie and not leaving even though some viewers at the cinema already left just not half of the movie was over. But the movie for me, tackled depression and the state of coping about loss. It was average, but not for me on the first watch. Maybe on the second watch it'll grow and will also unravel some keys to my questions but indeed this movie is really not for everyone.

Not impressed

1/5 STARS - I just watched Die My Love and, after reading about the novel it's based on, I'm certain I'd feel the same way about the book as I do about the movie. The acting is fine, the cinematography is fine-but the film drags endlessly and feels like it will never end.

It also comes across as annoyingly pretentious in its attempts to portray a woman's descent into madness and postpartum depression. The problem is that when we first meet Grace, we're given almost no time to connect with her before she unravels. So instead of watching a gradual breakdown, she just seems unstable from the start, making it hard to care about her journey-or lack thereof.

Before long, I found myself yearning for this self-absorbed, tedious exercise in frustration to just be over. The story blurs the line between reality and delusion so vaguely that it's often unclear what's even happening. The supposed affair with the motorcycle helmet guy feels like a weird fever dream (apparently it's real in the book-which somehow makes it worse).

In the end, I'm still not sure what really happened to this violent, self-absorbed mess of a woman who shows no real desire to improve or heal. And honestly? I don't care. I'm just not a fan of abstract, nebulous, meandering, self-important works of "art."

Many reviews seem eager to praise Jennifer Lawrence's performance, but to me, it just felt like Jennifer Lawrence playing Jennifer Lawrence-only louder. She was fine, but far from transformative.

Not impressed, not moved, and I can't recommend this one.

End My Film

Die, My Love? More like Day, For Night.

I'll give it this. The film taps into something authentic when it comes to looking at the impulsiveness that comes with depression. When it's jarring by showing something destructive happening, you feel it, and it feels real. Also, Jennifer Lawrence is very good, even though she doesn't really have an actual film to work with.

This thing is abysmally written and paced. A good performance and a certain honesty about mental illness - and how it feels - can only take this so far. There are parts of this film where it was almost like someone was trying to kneecap those somewhat redeeming qualities. You can have a film that's unpredictable and that shows a sense of psychological deterioration, but you still need pacing or a sense of momentum/escalation.

Die My Love has none of that, and whatever it's trying to be beyond a depiction of depression (and it is trying to be other things; it has to, with a runtime of about two hours), it fails. There's a randomness that doesn't feel clever or particularly purposeful; more just lazy. But I also thought Lynne Ramsay's previous film, You Were Never Really Here, was smug and kind of frustrating, so take my take with a decent amount of salt (We Need to Talk About Kevin was good, though).

Sheer boredom

I go into movies without watching trailers and knowing as little as possible. I did find out it's a dark comedy/thriller starring two talented actors, which was more than enough for me.

To demonstrate my experience with this movie, here is an imaginary conversation:

Me: What is this about?

Movie: Just wait!

Me: We're 40 minutes in, what is the hook? What is the intrigue?

Movie: Look how weird we are!

Me: Okay, but what is the purpose?

Movie: We're so realistic with lots of scenes of characters urinating or pleasuring themselves.

Me: Okay... but what am I even watching???

Movie: A story about a mother going through postpartum depression!

Me: Really????? That can't be it. Surely there is something more, some kind of escalation to a shocking climax.

Movie: Nah.

I'm not exaggerating, this is currently my worst movie of the year. I found it excruciatingly boring. Every scene goes on for too long. The attempts at being weird feel so pointless.

It's a complete waste of time. Even if you can watch this at home for free, it's not worth it.

Postpartum, it ain't

"Die My Love" follows young couple Grace and Jackson (Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson), who relocate to Jackson's rural hometown in Montana for a new start. The couple soon welcome the birth of a son, but their relationship splinters as Grace descends into severe mental illness, while an often emotionally-absent Jackson falters in supporting her.

This emotionally exhausting film by Lynne Ramsay (no stranger to darkness) is a psychological rollercoaster that, despite lacking in some exposition, is no less an effective, turbulent, and abstract journey into one individual's mental decline. Many have characterized this film as one about postpartum depression, but I believe this is both an oversimplification and a mischaracterization. As someone whose lifelong best friend has suffered from inconsistently-medicated bipolar disorder for decades, I found that this film succinctly illustrated exactly what this disorder looks like to a level that is uncanny. Grace's temperament and actions throughout reminded me so much of my friend that I found the film at times extremely difficult to watch.

In terms of story, "Die My Love" is fairly sparse. The film mostly consists of a push-and-pull, a chaotic dance between Grace and Jackson that is both exasperating and occasionally touching. There remains a clear sense that, despite their respective flaws and problems, the two deeply care for each other; however, there is a vortex in the room consuming Grace that goes unchecked for far too long. Grace's reality is entirely obfuscated by her illness, while a distracted Jackson is ill-equipped to be a source of legitimate support. His mother, Pam (Sissy Spacek), who is experiencing her own grief, seems to intuitively recognize the emotional forces that are consuming Grace, but her efforts also remain limited due to a number of interpersonal family dynamics.

The storytelling here employs nonlinear and abstract tactics that are, for the most part, effective. I do think it suffers from a lack of exposition, as the audience gets no real sense of who these people were before Grace's decline. Instead, we are dropped into their lives at the precipice of all this turmoil. A few details about Grace's past eventually emerge near the film's conclusion, but it feels like a case of "too little, too late." Perhaps this was done intentionally so as to mimic the unpredictable, hard-and-fast progression of some mental illnesses, but I still felt as though there was an undergirding to the two leads characters that was sorely missed. Despite this, both Lawrence and Pattinson's performances are outstanding, and Spacek serves as a warm (albeit often helpless) maternal figure between the two.

There is a repetitive nature to the events that unfold as the film hurls toward its conclusion which some may find a slog to get through (and I do think it could have benefitted from some slight editing), but I mainly found it a slog because it was a painful and dispiriting viewing experience. Given my experiences with Ramsay's other films, I expected this, but it hit me harder because it brought up many personal memories. Despite what flaws it may have, as an emotional portrait, it is a real gut-punch of a film. 7/10.

In Spite of Ourselves

Greetings again from the darkness. For the sake of her friends, family, and self, I do hope Lynne Ramsay's movies do not reflect her real-life persona. Don't get me wrong ... she's an extraordinary filmmaker, but to put it mildly, her films are not what we would label 'uplifting'. Proof of these two descriptions can be found in WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KEVIN (2011) and YOU WERE NEVER REALLY HERE (2017), and now again in her latest. The 2017 English translated novel by Ariana Harwicz has been adapted by Ms. Ramsay, Enda Walsh (HUNGER, 2008) and Alice Birch (THE WONDER, 2022). It's an absorbing film featuring what is likely the year's best and most haunting performance.

When we first meet Grace (Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence) and Jackson (Robert Pattinson), they are a wild and free couple who dance to the Pinky & Perky (not Alvin and the Chipmunks) version of "Let's Twist Again." Jackson has inherited a rundown house in rural Montana from his recently deceased uncle, and they fix up the place enough to move in. Sex and laughter fill their days right up until the baby is born. Postpartum depression has been conveyed in other movies, yet I don't believe it's ever been as visceral as what we witness here. Grace clearly loves her baby, while everything else about her own existence seems to anger and disappoint her ... the house, the dog, and especially Jackson.

Grace sinks to a level we don't often witness. It's so painful and uncomfortable to watch, and Jennifer Lawrence is fearless in her portrayal of Grace's downward spiral. Robert Pattinson plays Jackson as a normal guy who loves his wife, while having no clue how to handle the situation. Therein lies the power of this story. We could know Grace and Jackson, and we could be the folks at the party trying so hard to say the right things ... those things that turn out to be the worst things to say. We could also be that spouse willing to give the other enough space to find themselves.

Thanks to superb cinematographer Seamus McGarvey, the film has a gritty 1970's look and feel to it, and excellent (though limited) supporting work is provided by (Oscar winner) Sissy Spacek, rarely seen Nick Nolte, and the always interesting LaKeith Stanfield. The soundtrack is unusual and fascinating, including songs by such diverse artists as Elvis, Toni Basil, Cocteau Twins, Peggy Lipton, Nick Lowe, and Cream. As a bonus, the film features the best ever use of John Prine and Iris Dement singing "In Spite of Ourselves", a perfect fit. Mental health issues and depression are serious topics, and have rarely (if ever) been more accurately portrayed than what we see in this latest from filmmaker Lynne Ramsay. Despite the brilliant filmmaking and memorable performance, it's not an easy movie to recommend. It's only for those who can appreciate the magic within the dark clouds.

Opening in theaters on November 7, 2025.

A huge disappointment

Here I thought we would see a great performance by an actress tormented by post-partem depression. This film seems to be more an exercise in displaying the talents of Jennifer Lawrence then concentrating on a film that might have been insightful and perhaps even enjoyable. The acting doesn't substitute for a film cut back and forth, with the music of John Prine playing continuously as if it was a mantra. This director makes a shambles of a story that the viewer could have more empathized with. A depressing film and not worth a single Oscar nod.

Wanted to like it, but...

I just couldn't enjoy this film. I found the flick to be pretentious and the story jumps the gun far too often for the plot to hold any weight from the message being conveyed.

Yes, the film has some gorgeous cinematography and the acting is great, but that is about where the good stops for this one. The story goes absolutely nowhere. In about the last quarter of the film, I had felt like I finally got a grip on what Jennifer Lawrence's character was going through and why she kept doing these crazy things to herself, and I had thought, what a perfect way to end this film. Then it continued for another 25 minutes and lost me again with the meaning behind the film. It was as frustrating as seeing Lawrence's pregnant belly shrink and unshrink throughout the film, at intervals that make no sense.

The best part of the film is easily Jennifer Lawrence's acting. She was what made the film, at least somewhat, entertaining. Not a whole lot of a transformation for herself, she is doing a lot of what she did in 'Mother!' here as well, but it works in the film's favor. The actor who should not have been in this is Robert Pattinson. Very miscast role. It's not that he's a bad actor, it's that his acting is dry and emotionless. This role required someone with a more tender screen presence. Had they stuck with the idea I had thought they were going with, he would've been just fine, but, again, then the movie went on for another 25 minutes, making you feel bad for his character, and obliterated that idea out of my head.

Overall, I couldn't recommend it. The meaning and emotion that could have been are all lost in this messy soup of a film. The acting is great and the cinematography is a stand out, but the lack of a cohesive plotline, an ending that dragged on and on, and the very miscast husband pushed this film all the way to the ground by the end of it. A shame, a daring and provocative performance just wasted because of somebody's idea of 'avent garde elevated cinema'.

Truly awful "comedy"

Truly unpleasant view of a young woman (Jennifer Lawrence) post-natal, living in squalor and going mad. She's supposed to be a writer but we never see that, beyond dripping fluids on a piece of paper. I find these films tough: if the character doesn't give a damn about themselves, why should I? Nobody is likeable in Die My Love. It's an ugly movie from start to finish.

A pretentious, slow and insufferable film with a showy performance.....

The buzz on this film is that it features a courageous, great performance by Jennifer Lawrence. And it is true to an extent. She plays Grace. A new mother who lives in an isolated part of Montana. She is slowly slipping into madness. She is a writer but is really having trouble adjusting to her new life as a mother. In between having sex with her husband, ignoring her baby and fantasizing if killing either herself of her husband, even maybe her baby. Is it isolating that's causing this? Post partum depression? Old trauma? The film doesn't seem to be interested in anything other than wanting to show Grace doing unexplainanle, mean, selfing this. Robert Pattinson is good as Jackson, her husband but is given nothing to do but to look either bewildered and helpless in the face if his wife's madness. The film is slow by design but there is no real great revelation that rewards the patience of the film's audience. I was bored, it's not as shocking is it thinks it is. Jennifer Lawrence performance is out there but it adds up to very little. Just a pretentious, slow film that is not as deep and daring as it thinks it is. As usual in this type of film, the story is told in non-linear fashion. Thus film uses it to disorient the view on purpose but just didn't work for me.

Arthouse trash.....

Visceral, raw and compelling

'Die My Love' is an emotionally charged tale that follows a woman's slow descent into postpartum psychosis. Lawrence plays Grace, a new mother and writer, while Robert Pattinson co-stars as Jackson, Grace's partner. The movie is based on Ariana Harwicz's novel of the same name.

As well as being unconventional, this movie is a slow burn. There are long periods of tedium, punctuated by moments of deep intensity that literally shock the viewer into a sudden state of alertness. This is part of what makes 'Die My Love' work so well. I say this because there are times where, as a viewer, you almost get lulled into a false sense of security. But before you can get too comfortable, the plot takes an unexpected turn, and you quickly become engaged with the story again. Black humour is also used selectively to break the tension, which works well.

The overall mood of the film is one of mystery and unease. Being set in rural Montana adds to the mystery. A lot of the scenes occur in the family home Grace and Jackson share. That the house is in the middle of nowhere adds to Grace's sense of isolation, which only serves to compound her psychosis. Having the bulk of the scenes in the family home creates a sense of immediacy and also provides a solid foundation for the story. It also provides context for other scenes in the film.

One thing I liked about the story is that sometimes you aren't always sure what's real and what's only happening in Grace's mind. This added an element of mystery that I found compelling. And while it made the plot complicated, it was authentic. Madness is not linear, so it makes sense for the film to portray madness in a non-linear fashion.

Thanks to the direction of Lynne Ramsey, the viewer gets a harrowing window into what it's like to experience postpartum psychosis. The editing has also been done well too. With a plot that jumps around quite a bit, the different elements of the story are weaved together skilfully.

Lawrence plays her role with nuance and a raw intensity. One minute she is glassy eyed and looking off into nowhere. The next she is apparently lucid and calm, or is otherwise oblivious to her surroundings and the chaos and confusion for which she is responsible.

Pattinson delivers a compelling performance as a partner doing his best to make what he has with Grace and their child work.

Together, Pattinson's and Lawrence's performances combine to highlight the inner workings of a relationship that, while not loveless, is truly dysfunctional.

There's a great supporting cast too. Sissy Spacek plays the role of Jackson's Mum, Pam. While Pam appears well intentioned, ultimately, she isn't really sure what to do. Then there is Nick Nolte who plays Harry. Nolte does well in his nuanced portrayal of an old man who, despite his confusion, still has feelings he wants to express.

The film also features a really good soundtrack with a wide variety of music, including some heavy rock and industrial tunes. There are also some more upbeat tracks like 'Hey Mickey', which adds a moment of humour. Also in the mix are some acoustic numbers. The heavy numbers meld perfectly with the chaotic events occurring on screen, while the acoustic songs help to slow the pace. They also bring an element of melancholy to the story.

The cinematography has been done well too, with several scenes taking place at night, as well as others that occur at low light. This helps to create the film's dark mood and also heightens the sense of loneliness Grace is experiencing. There are also some great scenes shot in a field of tall grass that, while elegantly simple, also show the emotions Grace and Jackson are going through.

Another thing I really liked about the film was its use of symbolism to explore the theme of letting go of one's past. That this theme is communicated symbolically through visual effects - rather than through dialogue - is much more powerful. It also provides the story with a lot more depth.

I also liked the character development that came through in Pattinson's and Lawrence's performances. Despite many difficult situations and some really intense moments their characters share, I felt a degree of empathy for both of them.

Part dark psychological thriller, part black comedy, 'Die My Love' is a unique story that in some ways is elegantly simple, yet also uniquely complex. Pattinson and Lawrence deliver stellar performances, with Pattinson doing a fantastic job of portraying a frustrated partner who, despite everything, still cares about his family.

Then there is Lawrence, who continues to showcase her diverse range. She can do it all. From playing characters like the ballerina turned spy in 'Red Sparrow', to a down on her luck uber driver struggling to pay her property taxes in 'No Hard Feelings', Lawrence demonstrates her ability to work across genres with great skill. She was also one of the producers on this film, so is clearly multi-talented.

Plotless

The acting may have been great, but wow this was a stupid movie! So many pointless scenes and you're never really sure if they are real, a dream, a hallucination, her imagination, or a flashback. There was no plot, no story, no continuity - just bizarre episodes of a crazy person. And why is pregnant Jennifer Lawrence naked for no reason so much? Very odd!

Weird, strange, but sad

Its truly a sad story about postpartum. Its something that isn't talked about enough and does happen. This was on the deep end of the pool in my opinion and the whole movie is just weird, depression or not. Too much went into the shots that it kinda took away from the story a bit in my opinion. Thats weird for me to say because I normally love that. Throwing in the dog and the disrespect from the husband didn't help add to her postpartum depression, of course she was. Why was that never focused on? Overall this sad movie was good catching emotions and the pain. It just wasn't for me and the movie felt long.

People who love this movie are right. People who hate this movie are right.

This is a very good move. It's also an awful movie. Jennifer Lawrence acts the heck out of it - seriously good work. It's a huge rule that could have been cartoonish but she gives it nuance and depth. Robert Pattinson isn't quite as good but he holds his own.

Postpartum depression is not a topic I've seen done before, surely because it makes us confront uncomfortable things about mothers, who we'd rather idealize. So I give the producers a lot of credit for tackling the subject.

But it's about an unlikable woman going through miserable times, causing havoc in her wake. Of course people aren't going to like that.

My only possible criticism is that the portrayal of mental illness didn't seem fully authentic to me. But I say "possible" because I'm not a mental health professional and obviously I have not had postpartum depression.

But, the protagonists problems weren't only postpartum depression but that pushes her over the edge. I'll guess that's how it usually works.

This film will kill you before your love will

Die My Love is, without question, one of the most misguided films to come out in recent years. What should have been an emotionally raw, psychological character study instead becomes a chaotic and incoherent mess that never quite knows what it wants to be. The film takes the word "bad" and uses it as its entire foundation, resulting in a movie so tonally scattered that it's almost unwatchable. Despite the undeniable talent of Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson, even they can't save this trainwreck from itself.

Jennifer Lawrence's character is written with such inconsistency that it's impossible to tell whether she's suffering from a legitimate mental illness or simply being portrayed as an unhinged narcissist. There's no subtlety, no buildup, and no emotional rhythm to her performance-not because Lawrence lacks ability, but because the direction and script leave her stranded. Her outbursts come out of nowhere, and the film mistakes erratic behavior for depth. The confusion it creates isn't thought-provoking-it's exhausting.

Robert Pattinson, meanwhile, gives one of his weakest performances to date. His character serves no real purpose beyond fueling Lawrence's chaotic unraveling, and his lack of emotional connection to either her or their child makes it hard to invest in anything happening on screen. The film attempts to paint a portrait of domestic turmoil and emotional neglect, but it ends up feeling like a grotesque parody of itself. Scenes drag on without meaning, dialogue feels improvised without direction, and the overall tone swings wildly between erotic thriller and deranged art-house experiment.

At its core, Die My Love is a story about a woman losing her identity and stability after becoming a mother, but it's told with such little coherence or empathy that the message is entirely lost. Instead of exploring postpartum depression or psychological decay with authenticity, it becomes a series of shocking moments stitched together with no emotional glue. Watching Lawrence slam her head into glass and walls repeatedly feels more exploitative than expressive-it's shock for shock's sake.

It's no wonder audiences have rejected this film entirely. The marketing promised an intense, dramatic experience led by two powerhouse actors, but what they got was a convoluted disaster that fails on nearly every level. There's no heart, no story, and no reason to care. It's just noise and suffering packaged as "prestige cinema." Die My Love is one of those rare films that not only disappoints-it actively frustrates you for sticking with it until the end.

Ultimately, this isn't just a bad movie; it's a cautionary tale about what happens when star power is mistaken for substance. Even the most talented performers can't salvage a project that doesn't respect its audience or its own story. Die My Love tries to be art, but it ends up being an endurance test-one that no viewer should have to sit through.

Die My Love for cinematography

Just got out of the cinema. Worst movie on the festival I currently am at, maybe worst movie I've seen this year.

Movie starts nowhere, takes you nowhere, and every minute of the journey is tiring and uncomfortable.

Artistic choices are all over the place, scenes are completely meaningless and drag on for to long, there is no story whatsoever, even top notch world best actors couldn't save this film.

Stellar performances, yet unpleasant viewing

As "Die My Love" (2025 release; 119 min.) opens, we get to know a young couple, Jackson and expecting Grace, as they settle in their remote country home. They are madly and lustily in love. The baby boy delivered by Grace brings instant joy. We then shift to a pre-birth family gathering with Jackson's mom and uncle... At this point we are 10 minutes into the movie.

Couple of comments: this is the latest from director Lynne Ramsay ("We Need to Talk About Kevin"). Also important to note is that Martin Scorsese produced this (and brought the novel on which this is based to Jennifer Lawrence's attention). I will be frank to admit having conflicted feelings about this movie. On the one hand, I can readily see, and appreciate, the stellar performances, first and foremost by Jennifer Lawrence, whom i already predict will not only get another Best Actress Oscar nomination but likely will win it too. I've never seen Robert Patterson acting better. Sissy Spacek, as Jackson's mother, is likely to get (and certainly should get) a Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination. The original score (co-written by Lynne Ramsay I might point out) and the song placements are terrific. Then why did I not enjoy this movie more than I did? Because frankly there is nothing much to be joyful about in this movie. Grace's behavior descends into (mental) hell, and I felt bad, and uncomfortable, watching it all unfold. Yes, Jenifer Lawrence is brilliant in portraying it, but that does not do anything to lighten the situation. In fact one might argue it only deepens the situation. When the movie's closing credits started tunning, I was frankly relieved that it was over (although I never contemplated leaving the theater before the end).

"Die My Love" premiered at this year's Cannes Film Festival to considerable critical acclaim, and rightfully so. The movie is currently rated 76% Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes and I can certainly understand that rating, even if my own viewing experience is slightly lower than that. The movie opened in US theaters this weekend. The screening where I watched it here in Cincinnati early Sunday evening was not attended well (about 10 people), and its opening weekend box office (less than $3 million across the country) does not bode well for a long theatrical run. If you are in the mood for a movie experience that is definitely not your mainstream one, or you are simply a fan of Jennifer Lawrence or Robert Patterson, I'd readily suggest you check this out, and draw your own conclusion.
