Reclusive gym manager Lou falls hard for Jackie, an ambitious bodybuilder headed through town to Las Vegas in pursuit of her dream. But their love ignites violence, pulling them deep into the web of Lou’s criminal family.

With her co-writer Weronika Tofilska, director Rose Glass has made an utterly electric film; it’s exhilarating in how far and how hard it’s willing to go.

There are movies that grab you by the throat. There are movies that punch you in the gut. Love Lies Bleeding is both, and I f*cking love it.

The pulpy, pulsing power of this movie cannot be denied.

A twisted take on noir, it’s a real gut punch of a movie that will make you laugh and cringe and, if you haven’t already, join the Kristen Stewart fan club.

The most subversive moment in this gorgeously pulpy mash-up of mood and mullet… might just be that close-up of a never-better Kristen Stewart, looking at something like it’s beautiful to her, and letting the sheer want of it write itself across her face.
