La habitación de al lado

Almodóvar spins a gorgeous, fragile tale of life and death.

Pedro Almodóvar obsesses over death, actresses, and bright colors in The Room Next Door.

Tilda Swinton and Julianne Moore excel in this haunting drama.

In the pantheon of films about terminal illness, it’s refreshing to find one that takes such a humane approach to the subject of assisted suicide, focusing on personal agency but also the emotional toll for those around the patient.

...a talky, meditative drama, consisting largely of conversations between Martha and Ingrid.

...it’s rather optimistic, celebrating the beauties of life and meaningful connection in the face of death with a thoughtful, pensive tone.
