7.2/The trailer is beautiful done, it really made me excited to go watch this movie. A visually stunning slow burner, where every frame looks like a painting. The end with the daughter is “funny” done but not to my liking. Some parts in the movie were also not realistic, like >
a touching film—but funny and slightly off-putting in that wonderfully almodóvar way. the english dialogue emphasizes his tendency to heighten, to take things just past the realm of reality, and it makes for a compelling movie. the visuals are also stunning—no surprise there!

Un chouette film qui parle de l'acceptation de notre propre fin, de façon tout à fait sereine. La photographie du film est vraiment magnifique et nous avons affaire à deux grandes actrices qui mènent le récit d'une main de maître. Seul bémol : le manque de rebondissements
Another melodramatic feel to this otherwise interesting story. It’s a deep dive into a re awakened friendship and the meaning of death. I’m just not sure it ever goes deep enough. Could have been more emotionally engaging but I enjoyed the discussion within the film. 6.5

Ultimately, The Room Next Door is as much about love as it is about death — not the romantic kind of love, but the sort in which two friends hold each other up (quite literally, as Martha takes Ingrid’s arm during their walks) and give each other what they need, selflessly. Its final, magical moment finds uncanny beauty in sadness.
Ultimately, it all becomes too strained to take seriously.
It’s an elegant film, reckoning empathetically with an extremely complex topic, but there’s a slight sense that something is missing, keeping The Room Next Door from ever really becoming truly great.
