Originally printed in Night Shift, The Woman in the Room is an early non-horror story from King inspired by his own mother's death about a man weighing whether or not to help his dying mother end her suffering. Darabont's adaptation was the very first "Dollar Baby," King's program where he'd give limited rights to young filmmakers to adapt his short stories for the low, low price of a single dollar.
