The Glass Room

I love period movies and this one doesn't disappoint. If you're distracted you'll lose track of the character's development.

I was not expecting much from this film but was actually very impressed with the cinematography and the story. It is well worth a watch and you would have to have a heart of stone not to feel moved by it.

I've read some bad reviews, but I never lost my curiosity as to what would happen next. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Don't believe the haters.

I watched this movie while preparing supper. I enjoy spending time in kitchen so I walked to the room from time to time and found myself attracted. The picture was presented very well. The relations, emotions ... I was able to feel them.

There was lots of erotic scenes of sex between partners of which one was no really happy about it. Some kind of exploitation because of Nazi threat and Jewish nationality. Yet The core emotion was love between two women and their attachment to house and the architect.

Intriguing. I somehow believe the female-female relationship was something director wanted to focus. Discovering.

I've not read the book it's based on, consequently I cannot assess the adaptation side of this story but regardless of that, I really loved the film. The cinematography is gorgeous and the music, minimalist, compliments the film beautifully. The two best friends have palpable chemistry and we root for them from their first scene together. Carice Van Houten is stunning and a real chameleon. She is so underrated.
