In her latest film 'Die, My Love', Jennifer Lawrence portrays Grace, a new mother facing a psychological crisis after relocating to rural Montana. Directed by Lynne Ramsay, the narrative deviates from a common portrayal of postpartum struggles, highlighting the deterioration of relationships post-baby. Lawrence, connecting deeply with her character, shares her emotional challenges while filming after becoming a mother herself. The film, which premiered at Cannes and was acquired by Mubi in what became their biggest deal, has garnered significant attention for its unique perspective on motherhood and mental health.
As a mother, it was really hard to separate what I would do as opposed to what [my character] would do,
This whole postpartum thing is just bullshit. It's not about that. It's about a relationship breaking down, it's about love breaking down, and sex breaking down after having a baby.
