The Disaster Artist

Plot: The Disaster Artist shows the real story of the making of The Room. All the cast and actors are portrayed. The film highlights the strangeness of writer/producer Tommy Wiseau(James Franco). It highlights his friendship wiht actor Mark Sestero (Dave Franco), and shows the entire film making process. [imdb]    [photos]

Review: The Disaster Movie is surprisingly interesting despite the unlikely story. It is animated by James Franco's larger than life portrait of Wiseau. In all the good scenes Bissell is doing something weird. Mark enables Bissell's excesses and represents the audience perspective.

I have never seen The Room. I am sure I'd have enjoyed The Disaster Artist  more if I had.
