Jennifer Lawrence Has Her Reasons for Giving up on Phantom Thread After 3 Minutes

Sorry to be writing about Jennifer Lawrence on here again (though I can’t apologize for her being on a publicity tour right now for Red Sparrow), but she has a strong opinion about the first three minutes of Paul Thomas Anderson’s tightly stitched Oscar contender Phantom Thread that I think you should be aware of. What follows is something Lawrence said on Marc Maron’s podcast in an episode that aired Monday.

“I got through about three minutes of [Phantom Thread]…. I mean, is it just about clothes? Is he kind of like a narcissistic sociopath, and he’s an artist, so every girl falls in love with him because he makes her feel bad about herself, and that’s the love story?…. I’ve been down that road, I know what that’s like. I don’t need to watch that movie.”

Salty over mother!? Perhaps. But is she wrong? Well, it’s frankly impossible to be right about three minutes of a film (one’s personal life is another matter), but she gets achingly close.
