Writer-director Rose Glass joins us for a new chapter of Conversations @ Curzon to discuss her new film Love Lies Bleeding, her debut feature Saint Maud, her experience of working as an usher at Curzon Mayfair and more.
Love Lies Bleeding is the exhilarating crime thriller starring Kirsten Stewart as gym owner Lou, stuck in the routine of running a business until the mysterious bodybuilder Jackie (Katy O’Brian) drifts into town. The pair tumble into a heady, sexually charged relationship. Things go south in this engrossing neo-noir, however, when Lou gets caught up in the criminal life of her domineering father (Ed Harris).
