Storm House is highly recommended and every bit as ambitious as Room 55. While you’re kicking around, have a look at a few of the thousands of short films – animated, live action and documentary – the kind souls at Vimeo have made available for your viewing pleasure (via desktop or mobile device – SWEET!). But if you’re dying to get a look at some Glass’ work, you’ll find lots of juicy material over at her Vimeo Page. Let’s hope she finds a spot for Charlotte Weston in that film as well – because my god, where did she come from? At the moment, neither appears to have project in production. With any luck, all of that love will translate into a chance to direct a feature in the near future. I hope you enjoy Room 55! And I hope you’re taking note of Rose Glass’ name, ’cause she’s gotten a lot of love for this film. Written & Directed by: Rose Glass Starring: Charlotte Weston and Alexa Brown Director of Photography: James Blann Edited by: Manuela Lupini Original Music by: Arran Price Those of you that are will find Room 55 a deeply rewarding cinematic experience. Under Glass’ impeccable direction, the action unfolds in a blur of blinding emotion and poetic erotic imagery – the entire affair a fever dream of desire and expression. Energy captured with delicate ferocity by Star Charlotte Weston and lensed with stoic sensuality by Director of Photography James Blann. Just know that with each calculated moment and meticulously crafted image Glass builds an ocean of erotic energy around her character. Once Alice checks into the mysterious Clove Hotel, the night takes a series of unexpected turns. That anxiety leads her to spend the night in a hotel rather than go home. So much so that she has a panic attack at the thought of making her family dinner without one of the meal’s key ingredients. In under a minute, Glass has set the tone, the period and the emotional stakes of the story that follows. But that story doesn’t go quite where you expect.Īs the story progresses, we find that Alice is a particular sort – her life the very picture of discipline and structure. The show’s style and Alice’s clothing tell us we’re somewhere in the 1950s. The woman, Alice (Charlotte Weston) is our host. Out of the darkness, we find ourselves on the set of one of those old fashioned cooking shows. A voice off-screen calls action and the pained face jumps to life. The stunning moment of hushed anxiety is broken with a splash of red light. ![]() The first image we see is the pained face of an aging woman bathed in darkness. That confidence is on display right from the film’s opening moments. ![]() Morally adventurous, emotionally charged and deeply resonant, Rose Glass’ film may be the most confident short I’ve ever see. The filmmakers that are rarely succeed – I’m looking at you 50 Shades. ![]() In case I haven’t been clear, there aren’t many filmmakers producing erotically charged dramas these days. Rose Glass’ Room 55 is the rarest of erotic tales that places character first. It’s rare to find a sensual story that finds an emotional connection to its content. Most erotic films are too willing to sacrifice context and drama for titillation and stylized sexual encounters. Not because of the content, but because of the context … or lack thereof. The Film: Erotic cinema can be difficult to watch. The Plot: An inhibited 1950s television host takes a night off from her structured life. That’s why we’ll be taking a weekly look at some of Vimeo’s best and brightest. This week, we bring you Rose Glass’ erotic fable, Room 55. Short films matter. Vimeo wants you to know it.
