I find I really like this one-room ensemble movie genre.

Yeah, some of my favorite films fall into that category. Recently watched one I hadn't seen before. Tape with Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman. A drama. Takes place in a hotel room. Things slowly go off the rails. Directed by Richard Linklater, a dialogue heavy director people tend to love or hate. I've always enjoyed his films.
