The one in the movie was not painted red, and very likely a Frank Lloyd Wright Coonley desk...

The lamp shades look about right though (no pun intended).
It is possible it was repurposed to be a headboard for the bed, because it matches the design otherwise.

It's always debatable; more likely it was designed to be placed in an entrance hall (not a lot of room to write)  |

Looks like it's been heavily touched-up and re-used. WAY out of my price range. I might use the photo to build a SketchUp version though.
And yes, I'd wager it was definitely based on the FLW Coonley desk. |

Looks like it is the Avery Coonley Writing Desk, 1908, which was constructed by a George Niedecken:
