Brought to you by Ivywild School Events, Independent Film Society of Colorado, and Wiseau-Films. Doors open 6:30pm. FREE admission, donations appreciated. THE ROOM (2003, rated R, 1h 39m)
A successful banker’s (Tommy Wiseau) fiancee (Juliette Danielle) tempts and manipulates his best friend (Greg Sestero).
Writer/Director/Producer/Star: Tommy WiseauPRESS:
“The Room is the quintessential cult film, one whose excess and eccentricities become the cinematic equivalent of an alien trying and failing to assimilate among humans. But it’s also a film that’s genuinely mesmerizing, that earns each of its repeat viewings.” – Vox.com
“A bona fide classic of midnight cinema, Tommy Wiseau’s misguided masterpiece subverts the rules of filmmaking with a boundless enthusiasm that renders such mundanities as acting, screenwriting, and cinematography utterly irrelevant. You will never see a football the same way again.” – Rottentomatoes.com
“To make a movie that’s so bad it’s good you need vision, drive, luck and obsessive vanity. Fortuitously, The Room’s writer/producer/director/star Tommy Wiseau appears to possess all of these qualities, combined with a total lack of acting talent.” – Steve Rose, Guardian
“If there is a 21st-century Edward D. Wood Jr., it is probably Tommy Wiseau.” – Jason Bailey, Flavorwire
