The Room Next Door Review
‘The Room Next Door’ Has Good Performances But is a Disappointing Affair. The English-language debut from Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar is a disappointingly staid affair that can’t find life in its story of death and friendship. Opening in wide release in theaters on January 18th, ‘The Room Next Door’ represents something that would ordinarily be cause for celebration among cineastes –– it marks the English-language debut of accomplished and rightly celebrated writer/director Pedro Almodóvar working in the sort of low-key yet meaning-packed drama genre he has shone in in the past.
