But they always build each other up, as they're deeply and truly in love with one another. And after a day that has been especially discouraging, sitting on their porch with a bottle of booze they wish for everyone else to just diappear, to be alone in the world. And on the next day, exactly that has happened, everybody else is gone. After an initial shock, Phyllis and Barry begin to enjoy this, as they now can live into their days, can really feed off one another - virtually of course, and in the most positive way -, and can finally explore things even their past lives as creatives wouldn't let them. But of course there's a downturn to things, as after some time electricity ceases to work, and their provisions start to run low - and suddenly they find themselves waking up in places they definitely didn't go to sleep in, like a forest, a beach, or the middle of the desert. And as much as they're in love, the inexplicable situation they're in starts to take a strain on their relationship ...<p> <p>A rather unique movie to say the least, <b>A Room Full of Nothing</b> is part romance, part drama, part comedy even, part fantasy, part science fiction, and it sure puts a philosophical spin on all things, and yet it comes along as a very grounded film. Now that's thanks to the fact that the movie's (expecially considering its topic) surprisingly free of spectacle, and no matter what's thrown at them, the characters remain relatable and likeable despite all their flaws and fallabilities, and the direction gives them the necessary room to breathe. And of course, a well-structured screenplay coupled with solid performances only help making this a worthwhile watch. <p>  </td> <td width="4" rowspan="2"></td> <td width="100" rowspan="2" background="../stylepix/squareright.gif" valign="top">  </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="592" valign="top">  <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> currentyear = "2020"; </SCRIPT> <SCRIPT language="JavaScript" src="../scripts/endcredits.js"></SCRIPT> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> dosworsdonn(); </SCRIPT> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </body>
