Jennifer Lawrence gives a memorable performance as Grace, a new mother struggling with post partum depression in this new film from director Lynne Ramsay. The film costars Robert Pattinson as her partner, Jackson.
The film is a wild, crazy love story but as Grace sinks deeper into depression and psychosis, the story becomes bleaker and bleaker. There are moments of dark comedy but it's not enough for the audience to sink into despair along with Grace, as well as Jackson, who struggles to hold on to his unstable wife.
Sissy Spacek and Nick Nolte costar as Jackson's parents, and the film also features LaKeith Stanfield as Karl, a mysterious character.
It's an unsettling story but it is anchored by a brave and raw performance by Ms. Lawrence.
