Critic’s Pick! – “Part of what’s enjoyable about Loves Lies Bleeding is how Glass deploys her allusions and, with her two beautifully synchronized leads, distills what’s pleasurable from them while leaving behind old ugly ideas about women.” – Manohla Dargis, The New York Times

★★★1/2 – “Glass is a major talent with an uncompromising vision.” – Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com

Love Lies Bleeding is a gripping romantic thriller that delves deep into the complexities of love, ambition, and betrayal, before the blood starts pouring.  

This film follows the story of Lou (Kristen Stewart, Certain Women, Crimes of the Future), a reclusive gym manager, who finds herself captivated by Jackie (Katy O’Brian), an ambitious bodybuilder who dreams of making it big in Las Vegas. Set against the backdrop of the 1980s, their passionate romance takes a dark turn when it ignites violence and draws them into the dangerous world of Lou’s seedy criminal family, led by her estranged father (Ed Harris). As their love story unfolds, tensions rise, and loyalties are tested, leading to a series of gripping twists and turns that keep viewers on the edge of their seats.  

In this gritty, neon-hued drama, director Rose Glass (Saint Maude) has made an off-the-wall, rambunctious lesbian love story that has a distinctive, bold style which is also thrilling a journey of love and deception. 

Directed by Rose Glass, UK/U.S.A., 2024, DCP, 104 mins.
