Room for Error | Breaking Down The Infamous Sex Scene from "The Room"
Ariel & Morgan, two professional intimacy coordinators, pull back the curtain on how intimacy is really made for film and TV.
In our very first episode, we kick things off with wild on-set stories (yes, one involves a horse đ´ - don't worry, it's fake), break down what it really means to choreograph intimacy, and tackle the infamous simulated sex scene from the cult classic, The Room.
We give Tommy Wiseau's awkward sequence a beat-by-beat analysis, rate it on our "Spice Scale," and explain what could have made it work. Get the inside scoop on why intimacy coordinators are a crucialâand often misunderstoodâpart of the film industry.
Youâll hear:
- Hilarious and cringe-worthy stories from our time on set.
- A professional breakdown of one of cinemaâs most bizarre sex scenes.
- Why intimacy coordination matters for actors and storytelling.
