LOS ANGELES (Reuters)- Vanessa Kirby has never had a baby but she says she can’t wait to give birth despite her harrowing performance as a woman whose home delivery ends in tragedy in “Pieces of a Woman,” out on Netflix this week. One woman allowed Kirby to be present at the birth of her child. And those things scared me because I thought, if I get this wrong, I’m letting down every woman who’s ever given birth,” she said. “We see a lot of men die (on screen), but you don’t see a lot of women giving birth,” Kirby added. The 32-year-old British actress has received glowing reviews and a Venice film festival award for playing a young woman looking forward to being a mother but whose life is upended by loss and grief.
