Set
in Manhattan, the main set in the film is a modern apartment,
overlooking the city. The furnishings are very clean-cut and smooth,
solid wood and slate surfaces. The main characters are a young
married couple who, money-wise, are comfortable. The palette mainly
consists of grey, stone and whites. Within scenes in which the couple
face temptation, the colours are subtly richer. For example, Joanna
wears violet lingerie and shoes and goes to a party where the main
colours are tones of deep reds and black, symbolic for lust and
temptation. Michael finds himself amid a cooler palette of turquoise
and blues (around a swimming pool), possibly as a reference to his
coldness towards his marriage, but also his tentativeness towards
cheating on his wife.
