OMG! 😱 MUBI, the platform for people who pretend to understand arthouse cinema, has graced us with a teaser trailer for Die My Love. Yes, another film from Lynne Ramsay, the queen of making you feel vaguely uncomfortable and intellectually inadequate. It’s hitting the BFI London Film Festival on October 17th, because what’s more fun than pretending to enjoy a film while secretly scrolling through TikTok? Then, if you’re *really* committed to the bit, it’s in cinemas on November 14th. It already premiered at Cannes, so you KNOW it’s going to be pretentious.
Ramsay wrote this masterpiece with Enda Walsh and Alice Birch, adapting Ariana Harwicz’s book, Die, My Love. Because who needs original ideas when you can just recycle literature? ♻️
So, a young couple, Grace and Jackson, move to a creepy house in the country. Sounds like the start of a horror movie, but probably just a drama where they argue a lot and stare moodily out of windows. 😒
Grace is “finding herself” after having a baby. I bet it involves lots of interpretive dance and questionable life choices. Apparently, unraveling equals imagination and untamed vivacity. Who knew? 🤷♀️
It’s set in rural America, so expect lots of bleak landscapes and existential angst. Die My Love is apparently a “portrait of a woman engulfed by love and madness.” More like engulfed by boredom, am I right? 😂
The cast includes Jennifer Lawrence, trying to prove she can do “serious” acting. Robert Pattinson, still trying to escape his sparkly vampire past. ✨ LaKeith Stanfield, because every film needs a token cool guy. 😎 Nick Nolte, looking like he just woke up from a 40-year nap. 😴 And Sissy Spacek, reminding us that Carrie was actually good. 🔥
Finn McFrame, celebrated satirical mastermind and self-proclaimed “Emperor of Irony,” started his illustrious career as a cinematographer, where his expertise in capturing every single frame of a squirrel stealing a baguette earned him accolades at obscure film festivals.
Born in the glamorous town of Boring, Oregon, Finn grew up with dreams of being a Hollywood director until he realized that satire, not cinema, was his true calling—or at least the one that let him sleep until noon.
Finn McFrame: changing the world, one satirical lens flare at a time.
