THE ROOM - TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY
The Talkies with Greg Sestero
Thursday April 6th 7p.m.
Tickets
A jaunty yet dramatic piano-driven soundtrack motif; a view of the Golden Gate Bridge; a series of location shots around San Francisco. The generic title sequence of the 2003 film The Room barely hints at what follows.
The Room is a straightforward melodrama centred around a love triangle between Johnny (Tommy Wiseau, who also directs), Lisa (Juliette Danielle) and Mark (Greg Sestero). Described as “the worst movie ever made”, it continues to draw sellout crowds worldwide. One might rightfully wonder: what is the ongoing appeal of a film dubbed “the Citizen Kane of bad films” 20 years on?
Mark (Greg Sestero) joins us for a special 20th anniversary screening providing LIVE IN-THE-FLESH commentary throughout the screening.
