Lynne Ramsay’s wild movie, intense experiential, also plays Robert Pattinson as Jackson, an unfortunate and helpless husband who doesn’t know how to stop Grace’s decline and would rather disappear for a few days a day on an undeclared job trip while his wife is alone, with their 6-month-old boy, now a cavenally pet who never properly raises a pet, she never gets stuck in time.

The duo transplanted from New York City to an unspecified flat rural landscape, moved into a house owned by Uncle Jackson Frank, and found dead from a mysterious self-wound. On the way, Jackson’s father Henry (Nick Nolte) suffers from Alzheimer’s disease and is close to death. And the patient mother of Sissy Spacek, who is used to sleepwalking outside wearing a shotgun.

The late members of the Cannes competition lineup, still fresh from the editorial room My love Designed for maximum discomfort, it features crazy physical conditions, troubled photography and soundtracks of cricket filled with bones, mustangs, buzzing flies and constant doggy. However, the disturbing drama still receives six minutes of applause from the black-tie crowd, which obviously shakes and deeply touches Ramsey.

“Thank you very much!” The Scottish filmmaker chimed in the room with an exhausted Glaswig accent. “Come on – let’s get out of the situation. It’s a little overwhelmed.” Then she walked out of the 2200-seat large Lumiwell, where festival director Thierry Frémaux waited in the hall with open arms and a big smile. “Okay, that’s going well,” she admitted. “I mean, I still have something, like, ‘What the fuck? I’m going to change that.'”

Robert Pattinson stood behind, full of miracles, expressing his delight at Frémaux. “It’s very different from the last time I saw it,” Patterson said.

Lawrence, the co-producer in the film, posed the moment Martin Scorsese sent the book to her office and suggested that it could be a great project for her. She agreed, and then could guide and adapt material (she wrote the script with Enda Walsh and Alice Birch).

“Since I saw it, I want to work with Lynn Ramsey ratcatcherI was like, “There’s no way,” Lawrence said at the next day’s press conference: “We took the opportunity and we sent it to her, I can’t believe we’re with you, this happened!”

Lawrence first became a mother in 2022 and had just had a second child earlier this year, which clearly informed her decision to make the film and how she would portray grace. “It’s hard to separate what I’ll do, not she “When I first read the book, it was so devastating and powerful. Lynn said that was fantastic. I just had my first child and there were no real consequences. It was very isolated.”

By definition, Grace and Jackson moved to the country without any friends nearby, which was even more isolated for the struggling duo. “But the truth is, no matter where you are, extreme anxiety and extreme depression are isolated.” “You feel like an alien. So it touched me deeply.”

Ramsay also believes the novel goes far beyond consequence depression, which helps her envision an adaptation of the film in more general terms. “It’s about postpartum, but it’s also about being trapped, being creatively stuck, dreaming, fantasy, sex and passion,” she explained. “Jennifer sent it to me and I thought about it for a while. Maybe I can’t do it, but I’ll try it, I’ll do an experiment. It’s like a love story, and it gives me a way.”

The turbulent couple went from a wriggle on the floor with naked ecstasy to a shouting match and a shocking moment of self-harm – at some point Lawrence slammed his head into the mirror. She scratched the wallpaper in another person’s bathroom so that her fingers were bloody flesh. She suffered, and hesitated about how to make her feel better. He was also so frustrated that the cruelty of the cold.

“I’m attracted to those incredibly rubbing and obscure characters,” Pattinson said. “But there are some very common and interesting things when you’re dealing with partners. It’s very difficult when you’re isolated from her and trying to figure out what you’re in a relationship, especially if you don’t have words.
