The Axe Looms Large in LIZZIE Poster With Sevigny & Stewart

Academy Award nominee Chloë Sevigny (Boys Don’t Cry) stars as Lizzie Borden, the notorious woman at the heart of one of the most enduring mysteries in American history. After a lifetime of loneliness, Lizzie finds a kindred spirit in housemaid Bridget Sullivan (Kristen Stewart) and their secret intimacy sparks an unthinkable act.

Director Craig William Macneill (The BoyChannel Zero: Candle Cove) explores the days leading up to the savage crimes in a dark tale of repression, exploitation and thwarted dreams. We’ve already shared the film’s trailer (which you can check out again below) and today we have the movie’s poster.
