Rose Byrne Delivers Riveting Performance in Indie Drama "If I Had Legs"

In the latest chapter of her acclaimed career, Rose Byrne is delivering a powerful performance in the indie drama "If I Had Legs I'd Kick You." The film, directed by Mary Bronstein, casts Byrne as Linda, a therapist and mother struggling to hold her life together amidst a series of personal and professional crises.

Filmed with a constantly moving camera that often gets up close and personal with Byrne, "If I Had Legs" pushes the actress to her limits, forcing her to convey the intense anxiety and emotional turmoil of her character. Byrne embraced the challenge, working closely with Bronstein to develop a nuanced understanding of Linda's backstory and motivations.

The result is a performance that has earned Byrne widespread critical acclaim, including a prestigious Silver Bear award for Best Leading Performance at the Berlin Film Festival and a Gotham Awards nomination. Reviewers have praised Byrne's ability to convey the raw, unfiltered emotions of a woman on the verge of a breakdown, with the actress operating at a "thousand percent" throughout the film.

While the role was undoubtedly demanding, Byrne found the experience deeply rewarding. "It was a rollercoaster," she reflects, "I was sort of just frozen in my seat and totally arrested by this language, this experience." Fans of the acclaimed actress will no doubt be eager to witness her latest tour de force on the big screen.
