Now a major motion picture, The Disaster Artist, starring James Franco, Alison Brie, Zoey Deutch, Lizzy Caplan, Zac Efron, Bryan Cranston, Dave Franco, Kristen Bell, Seth Rogen, Sharon Stone, and Judd Apatow.

In 2003, an independent film called The Room - starring and written, produced, and directed by a mysteriously wealthy social misfit named Tommy Wiseau - made its disastrous debut in Los Angeles.

Described by one reviewer as 'like getting stabbed in the head', the $6 million film earned a grand total of $1,800 at the box office and closed after two weeks. Over a decade later, The Room is an international cult phenomenon whose legions of fans attend screenings featuring costumes, audience rituals, merchandising, and thousands of plastic spoons.

In The Disaster Artist, Greg Sestero, Tommy's costar, recounts the film's bizarre journey to infamy, explaining how the movie's many nonsensical scenes and bits of dialogue came to be and unravelling the mystery of Tommy Wiseau himself. But more than just a riotously funny story about cinematic hubris, The Disaster Artist is an honest and warm testament to friendship.

I absolutely it! I have already seen the film, which makes a wonderful companion to this book. Greg's narration was perfect, his Tommy impression is uncanny. I felt like I was right there, experiencing every awkward, saddening, and heartfelt moment. Thank you Greg Sestero and Tom Bissell. And of course, thank you Tommy Wiseau.

Just like The Room, a Fantastic Experience

Just when you thought The Room couldn't get more bizzare, the conception and production of this insane film are just as, if not more, strange and unusal. And yet, despite the alien-ness of Tommy Wiseau, Greg Sestero manages to paint a sympathetic portrait of the bizarre man and tells a story that really is all about human emotion.

A Must Listen for Every Fan of the The Room

I gotta give it to greg sestro, he does the best tommy impression ever and his performance off of himself had serious charm. The story is wilder than you can imagine even after seeing both movies and the endless details are just too good. One of the best audio books I've enjoyed in recent times.

Wha?
