“There’s something so completely undeniable about it. There’s just nothing to hide behind. You only get looking like that one way and it’s by an undeniable amount of work,” says director Rose Glass of bodybuilding, the sport that is one of the focal points of her sophomore feature, Love Lies Bleeding.
The film, the follow-up to her incredibly well-received body horror Saint Maud, follows Lou (Kristen Stewart) as the manager of a gym in middle-of-nowhere America who falls for a bodybuilder Jackie (Katy O’Brian) after she blows into town on her way to a competition in Vegas. The two quickly run into trouble with Lou’s father (Ed Harris), an arms dealer who runs the local crime ring.
Ahead of the Berlin Film Festival, where the film will premiere on Sunday, Feb. 18, Glass talked to THR about bodybuilding and Saturday Night Fever influences.
