Dive into Old Hollywood Through a Modern Lens
Set against the backdrop of the historic Juhr house in Rogers, Arkansas, “The Red Room” weaves a tale that pays homage to the Golden Age of Hollywood. Judy Barton, an aspiring 20s actress, dreams of making it big in Hollywood. However, fate has a different plan when she inherits an aging estate once owned by her grandmother, Norma Desmond, a renowned silent-film icon. The mansion holds many secrets, but none more alluring and fearsome than the enigmatic red room.
A Legacy Revisited
Drawing inspiration from H.G. Wells’ iconic story and intertwining references from the classic film “Sunset Boulevard,” “The Red Room” merges elements of vintage Hollywood with modern filmmaking techniques. The story not only nods to the character dynamics seen in the legendary film but also subtly hints at the real-life experiences of actress Gloria Swanson.
