Tilda Swinton Confirms She Has Never Been Afraid to Die


At a press conference for her new Pedro Almódovar movie, she confirmed what the world has long assumed.

At the official Venice Film Festival press conference for Pedro Almódovar ’s The Room Next Door, Tilda Swinton confirmed what the world has long assumed: that she walks the earth unafraid of the eternal void that must greet every mortal some day. When asked why, at “nearly 75 years old,” he was finally ready to work in English, the director was quick to interject: “Not yet!” (He will remain 74 for three more weeks.) Almódovar compared working in English to trying out a different genre, like sci-fi: something he’d always wanted to do, but needed “the right vehicle.” (Before The Room Next Door, he also made two English-language shorts, one of which starred Swinton.)
