SYNOPSIS
A crime and a romance — those American institutions that’ve animated the movies since the very beginning — Love Lies Bleeding is a fugitive tale that breaks the mold, at once dreamy and nightmarish, lurid and funny, laced with poison and lit with the magic of the high desert and the open road.
Rose Glass’s gleefully cinematic story follows Lou, a lonely gym worker who collides with an aspiring female bodybuilder-turned-outlaw, setting off a wild chain reaction in a small New Mexico town. The plot audaciously defies predictability as much as the filmmaking; Glass and a cast including Kristen Stewart, newcomer Katy M. O’Brian, Ed Harris, Dave Franco, and Jena Malone mix samplings of black comedy, queer crime, steamy pulp, family dramas, and revenge thrillers to explore the destructive and intoxicating forces of excess, ambition, and mad love.

REVIEWS
“Visceral and heady, this is a blood-soaked, all-American fable that’s as if Thelma and Louise literally went on steroids. Rose Glass is a force to be reckoned with.”
“Love Lies Bleeding is a sweaty, sensual, dangerous romp that defies gender conventions as much as genre. For that, it’s a must-see.”
“[Rose] Glass borrows liberally but not mindlessly. Instead, she takes familiar themes and more than a few clichés — romantic doom, family trauma — and playfully bends them to her purposes.”
