Room in Rome

"Room in Rome" offers an erotic peek inside a hotel room in Rome, where two women unfold an erotic story played out against the mundane atmosphere of a hotel room. A 2010 Spanish film, it is a loose adaptation of the film, "En la Cama," and this re-telling or re-casting, but made new, gives the film an artistic approach and edge that make the film visually and metaphorically appealing.

Though the film is not plot-driven, it does revolve around the happenings of the two lovers, along with their time in Rome. It is an interesting film in that it combines eroticism with romance to represent a fusion or hybridization of film genres that is rich in terms of its strong visual appeal. In this way, it becomes more art than expose, though that part of the film is represented well here, a fact that should be noted by parents who may wish to put this one on the top shelf.
