Across the Hall
Director: Alex Merkin
Actors: Mike Vogel, Danny Pino, Brittany Murphy
PlotTerry receives a frantic phone call from his best friend, Julian, who reveals that he is in a hotel, spying on his fiancée, June. Julian is certain that June is having an affair and is inside the room across the hall from her, armed with a gun and teetering on the edge of desperation. Terry rushes to the hotel to prevent his friend from doing something drastic. Upon arriving, Terry finds himself entwined in a labyrinth of tense emotions, manipulations, and secrets as he attempts to defuse the situation and understand the truth behind Julian's suspicions.
As the evening unfolds, the tension escalates, and Terry becomes increasingly entangled in a web of betrayal, jealousy, and deception. Each character’s motives and actions are questioned, leading to a series of revelations that blur the lines between loyalty and guilt. The confined setting of the hotel becomes a pressure cooker of heightened emotions, where every conversation and encounter brings the characters closer to an inevitable confrontation.
