Rose Byrne Falls Apart in 'If I Had Legs I'd Kick You'

AUG 6 – Rose Byrne delivers a powerful performance as a mother facing multiple personal crises in a dramedy praised for its intimate portrayal of mental health struggles at Sundance.

  • After its Sundance premiere, A24 released the trailer for If I Had Legs I’d Kick You, starring Rose Byrne, Conan O’Brien, Danielle Macdonald, Delaney Quinn, and A$AP Rocky.
  • Following its Sundance debut, writer-director Mary Bronstein drew on a personal health crisis to craft the story of Linda navigating her child's mysterious illness, an absent husband, a missing person, and a hostile therapist.
  • The trailer shows Linda, Byrne’s character, frantically arguing with her therapist, played by O'Brien, after a leak causes her bathroom ceiling to collapse and forces her into a motel.
  • With award season looming, Rose Byrne won the Silver Bear at Berlin, and an October release signals an awards campaign, A24 said.
  • Amid festival season, it plays in Melbourne on August 7 and August 9 before screenings at TIFF and NYFF, boosting awards prospects.
