The film is an adaptation of Ariana Harwicz's 2017 novel of the same name - the action of relocation from France to Montana - written and directed by Scotswoman Ramsay and co-produced by Lawrence in her most ambitious performance in years. Through the two-hour film, Lawrence plays a new mother (Grace), who develops postpartum depression and begins to get in and out of mental illness.
Robert Pattinson plays her husband, Jackson, Sissy Spacek and Nick Nolte plays his parents, and Oscar nominee Lakeith Stanfield also starred.
Lawrence - now a mother of two - was obviously emotional, talking about working on the subject with Ramsay. “What would I do instead of what (grace) did…extreme anxiety and extreme depression are being isolated. ratcatcher (1999), I was like, “There’s no way.” But we took a chance and we sent it to her. I really, I can't believe I'm with you. "Lawrence said.
Pattinson said of working with Ramsey: "I didn't find any particular puzzle. This is someone I've always wanted to work with, you create an atmosphere on the spot, and I don't need to really describe something like, hard or easy. It's a very unusual environment. But when you trust the director so much... when you trust your director very much... you don't know where you are in the direction you set up.
Lawrence and Pattinson were asked about how having children (Pattinson shares children with British star Suki Waterhouse) changed their careers. "Let the kids change everything," Lawrence said. "It changes your life, but it's cruel and incredible."
"I didn't know I could feel too much, and my work had a lot to do with emotions, and they opened the world to me. It was almost like a bubble or something, so sensitive. So they obviously changed my life and for the best, they changed me creatively," Lawrence said. She added, prompting laughter: “If you want to be an actor, I highly recommend you have a baby.”
"I think in the most unexpected way, having a baby will bring you the most energy and inspiration afterwards," Pattinson said. Lawrence cuts, "Do you have the energy?"
Pattinson continued: "It is impossible for a person to answer correctly! I am just here to support...this is how I work again since she was born, and yes, you are a complete person."
Ramsay says finding a way to "in Havic's novel": "The subject is about postpartum, but it is also intended to be creatively trapped in dreams, fantasies, sex and passions... so I thought, 'Maybe I can do that.' Then I thought, "Okay, I'm going to try it." Then I saw a love story, which gave me one. ”
thrLead film critic David Rooney calls the film a "harsh character study" and will sometimes "a bit of a trek". He continued: "Ramsey's movies are hard to love, but that beautiful visual is so strong that the whole clumsy thing blends together."
