Brandy Norwood looking suspicious on left & Kathryn Hunter screaming with blood on her face on the right in The Front Room
Loosely based on the short story by Susan Hill, The Front Room stars Brandy Norwood and Andrew Burnap as Belinda and Norman, a pregnant couple who are forced to take in Norman's eccentric mother, Solange . Already stressed by her pregnancy and losing her job, Belinda immediately finds herself in conflict with Solange. While seemingly old and feeble, she's also duplicitous, conniving, racist, and potentially outright psychotic. And you thought your mother-in-law was a hassle.
Max And Sam Eggers On The Unsettling Realism Of The Front Room "Solange shouldn't be representative of us all as we age; most people are far more gracious." Close Screen Rant: I took care of a sweet little old lady when she was 88. She passed away last year. She was so much nicer than Solange. But there were some scenes where I was, like, "All right, I feel seen.
That's great that you say that, because, and I mean this in a very good way, I can't imagine two people reading the script and coming away with the same idea. How did you get everyone on the same page? Max Eggers: I mean, I think it would do a disservice to answer that question, you know, at this stage, especially because I think hopefully things aren't irreducible. They are ambiguous in a fun way, you know? We have the answer. Yes.
Sam Eggers: And that was the thing. She wants to explore. What drew her to the character was that she loves to explore the dark side. I can't remember how she put it exactly. The ugly side of things, you know. And like Max said earlier, we had a lot of trouble casting the role of Solange because, you know, agents would say like,"You want my client to fart on camera? What's that about?" But Kathryn was more excited than anybody to do those things.
Sam Eggers: I don't want to speak for Brandy, but I think what drew her to the character was that Belinda is not a perfect person. She makes mistakes, you know, and to your point about who's side you're on, we were heavily inspired by Whatever Happened to Baby Jane as a sort of parallel. When you watch that movie, Baby Jane is a hilarious villain.
