The broken hearts gallery crack#
The toughest nut to crack in almost every film I’ve edited is the first 10-20 minutes. We tried to layer the things that were in there, and her bedroom is almost like an art gallery in itself.
But she goes overboard with it, and as you see, she keeps things like airplane sick bags and wrappers from hamburgers. They serve as reminders for different things that she’s gone through. She has all these trinkets that she had hung on to from moments in her life and as we find out, how they relate to her relationship with her mom and her sense of memory. Her room is filled with artfully curated junk. Since she’s a curator, so she has an eye on things. With Lucy’s bedroom, she’s piled in that house with these two roommates, and one girl doesn’t have a bedroom door, she has a curtain differentiating her space from the living room. The main goal of that space was to reflect Nick (Utkarsh Ambudkar) and Lucy’s character, and we couldn’t have had that happen anywhere else. The Chloe concept involved turn of the century climbing bars and weights on the upper mezzanine and we blended that all together, keeping in a punching bag that people could use to take their aggression on their exes out on.ĭuring the confessional moments when people are telling their stories, the backdrop is simply an old dirty old painting drop cloth that she grabbed from the construction maps and put up behind them to make everything consistent. The building where we set the Chloe Hotel/Gallery was a century-old gymnasium and we built this concept around that. We also had these antique white telephones that people could go to and pick up any of the phones and heard recordings of people telling their stories. There was a big cable down the center of the room with broken plates that looked like people had smashed during fights.
One installation was called, “Leave Your Baggage” - it was a gold hotel luggage cart with a sealed box on it where people could write notes to their exes, whether it was a goodbye or just notes. She wanted it to be site-specific and interactive. Natalie and I spent one night in particular coming up with ideas for some of the installation. Zazu Myers, Production designerĪ mix of things kind of went into creating the gallery. Below, the crew break down how they built Lucy’s world – her New York from her memory-filled bedroom to her gallery for broken hearts.
