In the Bedroom / USA / 2001
Tom Wilkinson rips in to his wife, Sissy Spacek, and it is a personification of such antagonism that his character — father to a murdered son — assumes the very traits of his son’s killer. For months he and his wife have been living in quiet but tangible discomfort. After this moment, their frustration with each other admitted, he becomes more vicious, and she more submissive, their shared tragedy a catalyst for repression.
In the Bedroom is now an anomaly in Todd Field’s career, or at least it doesn’t fit in sequence. It’s such a model of restraint and nuance that I wonder if Field watched it before making Little Children.
