Filmemacherin Lynne Ramsay zeichnet in DIE MY LOVE das schonungslose und kompromisslose Porträt einer Frau, die von Liebe und Wahnsinn verschlungen wird. Jennifer Lawrence glänzt an der Seite von Robert Pattinson mit einer furiosen Darbietung.

"Über alle Sinne bricht die Natur über ein junges Paar ein, das von New York nach Montana gezogen ist, um in einem abgeschiedenen und heruntergekommenen Landhaus fernab der Zivilisation ein anderes Leben zu beginnen. Grace, eine Schriftstellerin, und Patrick haben erst einmal den besten Sex ihres Lebens. Dann wird sie schwanger und kann, als das Baby da ist, ihrer postpartalen Depression nicht mehr entkommen – ihr zunehmendes Irresein bringt überaus verstörende Momente hervor. Jennifer Lawrence bietet ein umwerfendes und tabuloses Körperkino dar, das den anti-romantischen Feminismus von Filmemacherin Ramsay kraftvoll und kompromisslos ausagiert." Dunja Bialas, Viennale 2025

"The energy of DIE MY LOVE is unruly and aggressive... It's all physical impulse, and the primacy of the body's needs... Everything is vivid, but nothing is beautiful or soothing... Lawrence is an unruly presence, and her impulsiveness here (which serves her so well as a comedienne) makes her seem dangerous and reckless." Sheila O'Malley, rogerebert.com (2025)

"Eight years after her previous film, the grisly crime drama "You Were Never Really Here" (2017), director Lynne Ramsay takes on a different state of psychological collapse. Grace (Jennifer Lawrence) is a young mother in the grips of postpartum depression – an affliction exacerbated by her intense isolation after she and her comically aloof husband (Robert Pattinson) move to his childhood home in rural Montana. Though such mood disorders affect a startling number of women, Ramsay's depiction of Grace's unravelling is anything but commonplace, employing a fragmented editing style, woozy, psychedelic imagery and erratic soundscapes to blur the boundaries between fantasy and reality. Adapted from Ariana Harwicz's 2012 novel, DIE MY LOVE straddles horror and comedy, plunging us so deeply into Grace's mental inferno that it's hard not to break down and laugh. After all, Grace – thanks to Lawrence's daring performance – is a flurry of unhinged physicality, at one point crawling on all fours like some feral animal. Eccentric supporting characters played by Sissy Spacek and Nick Nolte only add to the chaos, but Lawrence commands the show, evoking the canonical madwomen of films like "Rosemary's Baby" (1968) and "Possession" (1981)."
