Cover story: Michelle Williams, Ryan Gosling ad-lib on 'Blue Valentine'

Contrasts
In the beginning of the film, this would be a hug. Later, it might be a chokehold. (Brian van der Brug / Los Angeles Times)
Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling have seen The Future. And it isn't pretty.

They'd finished shooting their film couple's courtship, a loose, spontaneous experience full of song, dance and lovemaking, now all fully sanctioned by the MPAA.

But now it was time to shoot the uglier half of the film, which opened last week, the half in which the relationship is mired in tension and resentment. "Blue Valentine" director Derek Cianfrance had taken one of the Radisson's fantasy suites and heightened it to create the Future Room, the dark nightmare in chrome where the movie's weary lovers go to take one last stab at romance. Neither actor had seen the room before the cameras rolled, and they opened the door, soaking in a decorating scheme that Gosling likens to the "inside of a robot's vagina."
