Hooray for more Lynne Ramsay!!!

Lynne Ramsay is one of my favourite directors, so that alone is exciting but Jennifer Lawrence on board too...I'm very much looking forward to this.

Still in development, per Ramsay:

The director also confirmed she was collaborating with Jennifer Lawrence, under the banner of her production company Excellent Cadaver, on an adaptation of Argentinian France-based writer Ariana Harwicz’s novel Die, My Love.

Described by The New Yorker magazine as belonging to the “motherhood horror” genre, the novel revolves around a woman living in isolation in rural France who loses her mind amid marriage and motherhood.

Ramsay said was in the process of completing the screenplay but that she did not know at this stage whether Stone Mattress or Die, My Love would shoot first.

“We’ll see,” she said.

Ramsay: "It’s about postnatal depression… I think I’ve made it funny. I hope I’ve made it funny."

Hope they use that quote in the marketing somehow.

According to WoR, the movie is 122 minutes, easily the lengthiest film of her career, and was shot in 1.33:1 and, partially, on the very rare Kodak Ektachrome.

I saw Lyne Ramsay's previous film You Were Never Really Here in the theater and was quite impressed. I've been really looking forward to what she directed next. My expectations dropped considerably after that clip. Yikes. Hopefully the official trailer looks better.

Critics Herald Jennifer Lawrence's "Mesmerizing" Performance In Cannes Drama 'Die My Love': "Expect Her To Show Up On That Oscar Stage Again"

Deadline’s Damon Wise was impressed by Ramsay’s “mesmerizing film”, describing it as a “brutal but beautiful story”. As for many critics, Lawrence proved the star of the show. “America knows very well how good Jennifer Lawrence can be, and this could well mean a fifth Oscar nomination if it lands in savvy hands.” But Ramsay also comes in for particular praise: “It could also be the film that takes Ramsay into the next stage of her career,” says Wise.

The Guardian’s Peter Bradshaw gave the film four stars of our five, noting: “Lawrence excels as a woman whose bipolar disorder is exacerbated by husband Robert Pattinson’s infidelity, with super-strength direction from Lynne Ramsay.”

The BBC wrote: “Die, My Love is a surreal, intense and sometimes darkly hilarious exploration of postpartum depression – although it does seem for a time as thought it’s going to be a lot more besides.
Jennifer Lawrence is better than ever as Grace…The film has its share of incidents, but it’s essentially a mood piece – one long nervous breakdown – rather than a drama with a plot.”

Indiewire also praised Lawrence and noted her awards credentials: “Jennifer Lawrence Goes Full Feral in Lynne Ramsay’s Intense, Exhausting Postpartum Psychosexual Frenzy,” declared the headline, before adding, “Lawrence gives an unleashed performance as a mother in freefall that festival Best Actress awards are made for.”

The Daily Beast felt similarly about Lawrence’s awards potential: “J. Law’s mesmerizing performance in Die, My Love is so good, expect her to show up on that Oscar stage again.”

Vanity Fair described Lawrence as “astonishing”: “A sometimes reluctant movie star reminds us of her full power in this Cannes standout.”
