‘The Room Next Door’ | Anatomy of a Scene
Pedro Almodóvar narrates a sequence from his film starring Julianne Moore and Tilda Swinton.
-
I’m Pedro Almodóvar. I’m the director of “The Room Next Door.” We are in the middle of the story. The two main characters, played by Julianne Moore and Tilda Swinton. They are very close friends and Martha, Tilda, decided to go to a place close to Woodstock just to spend the last weeks of her life “It’s so much more beautiful than in the photographs.” And it’s a wonderful Edward Hopper picture. And also it’s important for the story because they go out to the garden and they found the trees. The birds. “Do you hear them?” “Isn’t that wonderful?” And also the lawn chair. “And we can lie in the sun like in the Hopper, and catch the evening breeze.” This is very important for me. This is the place exactly where Martha, Tilda, is going to die. So it’s like, that lounge chair. It is waiting for her. And because it’s going to be the ultimate place where she’s going to rest. “Do you mind if I take this one?” “Of course not. It’s your house.” “This one’s a little small. I’m going to look downstairs.” “All right.” “I’m going to take this one.” “O.K.?” “Very good.” “You don’t mind that I’m not in the room next door?” “I can hear you breathe and yell.” “O.K.!” “Here we go.” “Let’s get you unpacked.”
