Lynne Ramsay directs Jennifer Lawrence, Robert Pattinson and Sissy Spacek in this art house drama about a new mother losing her mind out in the wilderness.
Abrasive, incoherent but absolutely feral. Everyone involved has built up a huge amount of credit with me over the years. This might be a wilder swing for the beautiful collective but I was absorbed by the spectacular splintery chaos of it all. Challenging but full of memorable moments. Yes – the nudity. Yes – the crawling. And…Yes! The dancing. I let it all consume me. Only the Lakeith Stanfield subplot felt superfluous. A challenging, messy watch that I would revisit in a heartbeat. J-Law for president!
