...Sidney's walk-up office in the West 40s isn't much for decor: a tatty front room with a fat water streak down the wall and a desk for his adoring secretary Sally (Jeff Donnell), and behind this a small bedroom where Sidney changes clothes between appointments. But it's metaphorically sumptuous, as the dressing room where Broadway's self-proclaimed star of the future dons his tailored shirts and form-hugging suits. It's also Sidney's dressing-down room.

"I was shocked," says Doe, sobbing in an interview with TIME; but given how slight in both...
...Bedroom is not a film for the romantically twitchy or the ideologically itchy. But this precisely calculated piece - beautifully acted by Tomei and the rest of the cast - is a very fine movie for those who value exquisitely-rendered emotional truth. Is there, one wonders, an Oscar category for that...
