- LOS ANGELES — Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence has reminisced about
feeling isolated after giving birth to her first child.
-
- Lawrence, who welcomed her first child Cy in February
2022, plays a new mother whose mental health deteriorates in 'Die, My Love',
reports femalefirst.co.uk.
-
- She said at the Cannes Film Festival: "Having
children changes everything. It changes your whole life. But it's brutal and
incredible. And so not only do they go into every decision of if I'm working,
where I'm working, when I'm working.”
-
- “It taught me ... I didn't know that I could feel so
much. My job has a lot to do with emotion. They've opened up the world to me.
It's almost like feeling like a blister or something, so sensitive.
-
- She added: "So they've changed my life, obviously,
for the best, and they've changed me creatively. I highly recommend having kids
if you want to be an actor."

- The actress, who welcomed her second child in March,
actually felt a strong connection with her 'Die, My Love' character.
-
- The acclaimed actress, who has been married to Cooke
Maroney since 2019, shared: "Obviously, as a mother, it was really hard to
separate what I would do as opposed to what she would do. It was just
heartbreaking."
-
- 'Die, My Love' is an adaptation of a 2017 novel of the
same name by Ariana Harwicz. And Jennifer relished the experience of working
with director Lynne Ramsay.
-
- The actress said: "When I first read the book, it
was just such a devastating, powerful ... Lynne said it was dreamlike. I had
just read my first (baby). And there's not really anything like postpartum.
It's extremely isolating, which is so interesting when Lynn moves this couple
into Montana.
