I knew I wanted a Spanish-style house because it needed to be a place you could only find in Los Angeles. We used pinks and oranges whenever we could, which mixed nicely with the neutral palette of the Spanish-style house. I wanted the house to have a a laid-back, cozy California feel with hints of feminine colors. HMS: I had a specific look and palette in mind for Alice's house.
We talked to the mother-daughter duo on weaving in classic set elements of quintessential Meyers films, collaborating together for the first time, the importance of Pinterest, and how Meyers-Shyer's fresh take on the prototypical romantic comedy set may be just what Home Again needed.
But while Meyers is known for her neutral palettes and perfect vignettes of accents, Meyers-Shyer added a bolder feminine palette this time around. (The flick came in second at the box office its opening weekend, just after Stephen King's It, making $8.5 million in three days.) Like the majority of Meyers's films, it's a romantic comedy with a strong female lead, and the set-especially the main character's home, which is a Spanish-style hacienda this time around-could practically serve as a supporting cast member. Last week, Meyers added yet another film to her portfolio, but this one is especially notable: Home Again, starring Reese Witherspoon, is her 30-year-old daughter Hallie Meyers-Shyer's directorial debut, and Meyers served as producer. The director, screenwriter, and producer has created a laundry list of successful movies, including The Parent Trap, Something's Gotta Give, The Holiday, It's Complicated, and The Intern-and in 2000, What Women Want took in $183 million in the United States, making it at the time the most successful film to ever be directed by a woman. To say Nancy Meyers's films have a cult following may be an understatement.
