Love Lies Bleeding [DVD]
Lou & Jackie Against the World
Cinematic crime couples have come in many forms, ranging from Bonnie & Clyde and Badlands to Thelma & Louise. But there has never been a pair quite like Lou and Jackie—Lou with her self-chopped hair, cut-off t-shirts, deep secrets, and bottled-up, introverted energy, and Jackie with her sparkly bikinis, curvy muscles,
and sweet-naivete-turned-terrifying-killer instinct. They might turn out to be an explosive match, but they are also swept up with being wildly in love.
A female bodybuilder and gym manager in 80’s America meet and fall in love then commit murder. Echoes of David Lynch, The Coen Brothers and 90’s Wachowski thriller Bound, this is a tense and thrilling modern film noir with excellent performances from Kristen Stewart and Katy O’Brien with good supporting performances from Jenna Malone and James Franco and a menacing performance from Ed Harris with director Rose Glass becoming a name to watch.
