\n\tWhile Jennifer Lawrence<\/a> has said the process of promoting and releasing a film like Die My Love<\/a> can be \u201cvery violating,\u201d it seems the process of creating such a raw and personal film while pregnant was much less so.<\/p>\n

\n\tOf intimate scenes with on-screen partner Robert Pattinson, she\u2019s said<\/a>, \u201cI felt really safe with him. He\u2019s not pervy and he\u2019s very in love with [partner] Suki [Waterhouse]. We mostly were talking about our kids and relationships.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tLawrence felt a similar comfort working with director Lynne Ramsay<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI have found a commonality in female directors, which is that they do not do this thing, which is over-direct,\u201d the Oscar winner told Vulture<\/a>. \u201cThere have been some times when I\u2019ve worked with male directors where there\u2019s this need to constantly feel like they\u2019re\u00a0directing\u00a0the movie. And it\u2019s not even really getting anything done. It\u2019s just annoying. When I think\u00a0auteur, my mind kind of goes to controlling and\u2026what\u2019s that word? Neurotic!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThat was not her experience with Die My Love, according to the actress.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cLynne was the opposite. She really built this world and made sure that we were all on the same page, through music and conversations and the atmosphere and the set. And then she would just kind of slowly walk back. And sometimes, from the discomfort of that, from the lack of her visibility, something interesting would come from it. And then she would come out and be like, \u2018That\u2019s great, great. Yeah, do it again.\u2019 Or we would accidentally laugh and be like, \u2018Oh, sorry.\u2019 And she\u2019d be like, \u2018No, it was great. I liked that you laughed. Do it again.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDeadline\u2019s review<\/a> calls the film \u201ca brutal but beautiful portrait of a woman on the edge.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDie\u00a0My\u00a0Love\u00a0opened this weekend<\/a> on 1,983 screens and is looking at a $2.7M 3-day cume<\/a>. Mubi paid $24M for domestic and multiple foreign rights on the movie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"While Jennifer Lawrence has said the process of promoting and releasing a film like Die My Love can…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":272007,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[49,48,361,106235,75,106232,107499],"class_list":{"0":"post-272006","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-celebrities","11":"tag-die-my-love","12":"tag-entertainment","13":"tag-jennifer-lawrence","14":"tag-lynne-ramsay"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/272006","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=272006"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/272006\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/272007"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=272006"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=272006"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=272006"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
