SCREENING FROM FEBRUARY 20TH.

Rose Byrne gives a performance of blistering intensity in Mary Bronstein’s extraordinary second feature; a white-knuckle ride into the psyche of a woman on the brink of despair. Byrne plays Linda, a psychoanalyst caring for her critically ill daughter who must relocate to a dingy hotel. Her husband (Christian Slater) is away, and she must single-handedly juggle hospital visits with treating her clients, while monitoring repairs to her home. If I Had Legs I’d Kick You is a brave, formally daring, and entirely unforgettable experience.
