One of the starrier titles to hit the Croisette this week, Lynne Ramsay’s Die My Love just had its debut at the Palais, earning a nine-minute ovation.
Led by Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson, the Competition entry is based on the 2017 novel by Ariana Harwicz and also stars LaKeith Stanfield, Sissy Spacek and Nick Nolte.
Set in rural America, Die My Love is the portrait of a woman engulfed by love and madness. Pattinson plays her husband, and Stanfield her lover.
Known for her Cannes drama Ratcatcher, as well as films like We Need to Talk About Kevin and Morvern Callar, Ramsay’s last movie, thriller You Were Never Really Here, starred Joaquin Phoenix and won her the Cannes Best Screenplay award in 2017.
Ramsay directed Die My Love from her script written with Enda Walsh and Alice Burch. Producers include Justine Ciarrocchi and Lawrence on behalf of Excellent Cadaver, as well as Martin Scorsese, Andrea Calderwood, and Black Label Media’s Molly Smith, Trent Luckinbill and Thad Luckinbill.
