As Sestero chronicles (and what's obvious to anyone who watches 20 seconds of 'The Room'), the film's sole creative force has absolutely no idea what he's doing but deflects cinematic and societal common sense whenever possible. Maybe Johnny is vampire.' That's Wiseau in a nutshell. At one point during shooting Wiseau wanted his car to appear to fly off the roof because, as Sestero recalls the first-time filmmaker saying, 'It's just possible side plot. The film follows Johnny (Wiseau) as he learns of his conniving fiance Lisa's (Juliette Danielle) affair with Johnny's best friend Mark (Sestero). In the hilarious and fascinating 'The Disaster Artist,' though, page after page after page features an outrageous anecdote that speaks to Wiseau's misguided determination and the stubborn cluelessness of his vision. Wiseau, an abysmal actor, unwittingly underscores countless moments of unintentional comedy-from grown men in tuxedos tossing around a football while standing about two feet apart to characters constantly greeting each other with 'Oh, hi' as if they're shocked to see them-with an offbeat creepiness that makes me shiver instead of laugh. I've always found 'The Room,' first and foremost, weird. Obviously, I'm talking about 'The Room.' 'The Disaster Artist,' co-written by 'The Room' co-star Greg Sestero, provides an extraordinarily entertaining inside look at his unusual friendship with star/writer/director/producer Tommy Wiseau, leading to Sestero's involvement in the 2003 film many now consider the funniest bad movie of all time. A filmmaker who shoots on an indoor set of a roof instead of an actual roof. ***1/2 (out of four) Horrendous dialogue like 'Leave your stupid comments in your pocket.' Awkward casting sessions that make people auditioning think they're about to be murdered.
