“Die My Love," the latest film from acclaimed Scottish director Lynne Ramsay, premiered at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival as one of its most anticipated titles. Its buzz only intensified when MUBI acquired the film for a reported $24 million—the festival’s largest deal this year.
MUBI has slated “Die My Love” for a November 7 wide release, right in the heart of awards season. A stop at TIFF seems likely ahead of its release, but regardless of the path it takes, Jennifer Lawrence’s daring performance feels like a near lock for Oscar recognition.
Following its debut screening, the film sparked intense discussion along the Croisette. Reviews were sharply divided, leaving many critics and viewers both fascinated and bewildered. Still, the controversy hasn't dimmed the growing awards buzz surrounding Lawrence, whose portrayal of a young mother descending from postpartum depression into psychosis has been widely praised.
