Jennifer Lawrence stars in Ramsay’s third Competition entry as a new mother battling with psychosis. Robert Pattinson, Sissy Spacek and LaKeith Stanfield also star.
Die, My Love’s score matches that of the Scottish filmmaker’s 2011 feature We Need To Talk About Kevin, while her 2017 drama You Were Never Really Here finished second on the jury grid that year with 3.1.
Linklater’s French-language biopic Nouvelle Vague scored a 2.7 average from critics, putting it third on the jury grid so far.
The film, which charts the making of Jean-Luc Godard’s 1960 classic Breathless, received mostly two-(average) and three-stars (good), while Zacharek gave it a four-star.
Another middling score came for Hayakawa’s Japanese drama Renoir, also scoring a 2.5 average.
The Guardian’s Peter Bradshaw gave the coming-of-age drama four stars, but rogertebert.com’s Ben Kenigsberg gave it a one-star.
The next films to land on the jury grid will be Kleber Mendonca Filho’s The Secret Agent and Wes Anderson’s The Phoenician Scheme.
