>Probably the most wasteful and pointless aspect of The Room’s production was Tommy’s decision to simultaneously shoot his movie with both a 35mm film camera and a high-definition (HD) camera. In 2002, an HD and 35mm film camera cost around $250,000 combined; the lenses ran from $20,000 to $40,000 apiece. And, of course, you had to hire an entirely different crew to operate this stuff. Tommy had a mount constructed that was able to accommodate both the 35mm camera and HD camera at the same time, meaning Tommy needed two different crews and two different lighting systems on set at all times. The film veterans on set had no idea why Tommy was doing this. Tommy was doing this because he wanted to be the first filmmaker to ever do so. He never stopped to ask himself why no one else had tried.

Bear with me, the word limit is a pain, but this is totally worth it


The makeup chair was Tommy’s favorite place to learn his lines and he always insisted I stay near him when he was running them. Between sips of Red Bull, Tommy recited the first line of the first scene he wanted to shoot that day: “Oh, hi, Mark.” He did the line with different spins and emphases (“Oh, hi, Mark,” “Oh, hi, Mark,” “Oh, hi, Mark,” “OhhiMark”) until he was sure he had it. Amy, the makeup artist, was working on Tommy throughout this process, dabbing at his face while he gestured. Tommy, satisfied with his “Oh, hi, Mark” delivery, moved on to a moment later in the scene, which involved Johnny and Denny. He read the line woodenly: “You can love someone deep inside your heart. There’s nothing wrong with it.” Then he turned to me and asked, “How is my voice today? I know I do something wrong. I’m losing my mind. Can you correct me?”
“You’re doing fine,” I assured him.
Sandy wandered over to find out what Tommy wanted to shoot first. “We are shooting roof scene with Johnny and Mark,” Tommy said. “Don’t worry. We ready in five minutes.” Sandy lumbered off, certain that Tommy’s “five minutes” meant more like an hour and a half.
The Room’s costume designer, Safowa, had ducked out for a moment to run some wardrobe errands because Tommy was so late. Of course, the moment Tommy learned that Safowa was no longer around, he decided he was ready to get dressed for his scene. He began to panic. “We need her now, not tomorrow!” he said. “I don’t hire her not to be here! I’m not doing her job.”
>>
>>62799760
dude the book is almost ENTIRELY in the room. rough read. really good though
>>
>>62799822
Amy told Tommy that Safowa would be back any second, but Tommy, unsatisfied, headed directly to wardrobe and dressed himself. He probably could not have picked a worse outfit had he been blindfolded: an ill-fitting navy blue sport coat over his favorite black tank top and sand-colored cargo pants, the pockets of which were stuffed with lotion bottles, antiwrinkling gel, purple scrunchies, hair clips, and cash. He looked like an aging metrosexual commando.
Safowa returned from her errand, took one look at Tommy, and nearly fainted. I believe the word she used to describe his outfit was “unfilmable.”
Tommy, of course, refused to change. “I keep my stuff, sweetie. You are late. Please don’t do this again.”
“Tommy,” Safowa said, “you can’t just pick things off the rack at random and start shooting.” Sensing she wasn’t going to win this argument, she turned to grab her camera. “I need to get a Polaroid of your outfit for continuity.”
“Continuity,” Tommy said, stopping her, “is in your forehead.”
“Would you at least empty your pockets?” Safowa asked. “Can we agree to that?”
“I cannot,” Tommy said. Safowa briefly looked like she was about to punch him. Tommy, noticing this, put his hand on her shoulder. “You are very sweet, and I push you little bit. But don’t hate me yet.” From Safowa’s expression it was clear that Tommy’s request was several seconds too late.
>>
>>62799831
The scene Tommy wanted to shoot was my first with him that didn’t involve other cast members. We started with the master shots of the conversation Johnny and Mark have after Johnny spontaneously storms onto the Rooftop, denying that he’s hit his future wife, Lisa. The ensuing conversation concerns women, mostly, and the possibility that they are evil. When Johnny tells Mark that Lisa is “loyal” to him—remember, Mark is banging Lisa pretty regularly by this point in the film—Mark says, “Yeah, man. You never know. People are very strange these days,” which is one of the most majestically odd lines in the whole film. Mark then tells Johnny a story about a woman friend of his who enjoyed the company of “a dozen guys.” Unfortunately, one of these surly gentlemen discovered his lover’s promiscuity. “He beat her up so bad,” Mark tells Johnny, “she ended up in a hospital.” To which Johnny responds: “What a story, Mark!”
For reasons neither I nor anyone else could gather, every time I got to the part in Mark’s story about the woman being beaten up, Tommy would laugh warmly before delivering his line. It was unsettling. It was disturbing. Take after take, Tommy/Johnny would react to the story of this imaginary woman’s hospitalization with fond and accepting laughter.
After a few takes Sandy took Tommy aside and, as though speaking to a child, told him that this beaten-up-woman business was not funny, not at all; it was, in fact, a very sad line; and maybe Tommy should shoot for a response that was more, shall we say, emotionally involved. Sandy went so far as to demonstrate for Tommy what Johnny’s “concerned body language” should look like. It was as though Tommy had never bothered to contemplate what the line he wrote actually meant.
>>
>>62799845
Tommy laughed again during the next take. Sandy stepped away from his monitor, looked at the ground, and said, “Okay. Not funny, Tommy! No laugh there! Remember, be concerned!” Sandy’s eyes were bleak with false enthusiasm and his voice sounded like a cable getting ready to snap. We’d been shooting this idiotic conversation for more than an hour.
Tommy and I did the exchange again. This time Tommy didn’t laugh. Instead, he said his line—“What a story, Mark”—with absolutely no emotion at all. This effect was, improbably, even weirder than the takes he had laughed in. Sandy gave up and we moved on.
Then it was time to do the coverage shots of our individual closeups. In an attempt to loosen Tommy up a bit, I changed the line that had been provoking his laughter. Instead of “He beat her up so bad, she ended up in a hospital,” I ad-libbed, “He beat her up so bad, she ended up in a hospital on Guerrero Street.”
Of course, there is no hospital on Guerrero Street, but Tommy’s San Francisco condo was located there. I knew full well that anything having to do with Tommy’s personal life was a matter of national security, but the reference was so obscure that I couldn’t imagine him being worried about it. No one involved in The Room even knew that Tommy had lived in San Francisco, let alone that he had a condo there. This was going to be a ridiculous scene no matter what, and I guess I was trying to remind Tommy to approach it more playfully. Attempting to mine Tommy’s scenes for authentic or plausible emotion was never going to work. You couldn’t make these scenes realistic, I figured, so why not have fun?
Tommy laughed again, more ghoulishly than before.
When the cameras stopped, Tommy dragooned me into a quiet place, away from the crew. “Are you insane completely?” he said. His eyes were all dancing panic. “You must be crazy in the head! Now we can’t erase this information from thirty-five-millimeter film!”
>>
Disaster Artist is one of my favourite books. It delivers the most bittersweet ending.
>>
>>62795488
>He sits up
>>
>>62799859
I tried to calm him down. “Tommy, it’s a street name. Nobody knows what I was referring to.”
Tommy gave me a hard, cold look. “I’m not happy about your statement.” He was even less happy when the only usable audio from all of the coverage happened to be in the take where I ad-libbed the Guerrero Street line, which was why it wound up in The Room at all.
We filmed the first part of Tommy’s and my scene—Johnny making his dramatic entrance onto the Rooftop—last. To shoot him doing this, the crew had to rearrange the Rooftop walls and push into place the tiny, tin-roofed outhouse that was doubling as the Rooftop’s access door.
Since the outhouse was so small, there was no room inside to create the illusion of continued movement. This meant that anyone being filmed exiting it had to stand perfectly still while waiting until action was called. Coming out of that thing, you stumbled into your scene.
>>
>>62799760

Although I don't recommend audiobooks, this one in particular is great since it's read by Greg and he does a perfect Tommy impression.
>>
>>62799874
In the original draft of the Room script, the stage direction reads: “JOHNNY OPENS THE DOOR TO THE ROOF ACCESS. MARK IS SITTING THERE.” Tommy had decided this wasn’t dramatic or emotional enough, especially now that he’d rewritten his script to include scenes in which Lisa claims to others that Johnny has abused her. To establish that Johnny is incapable of abuse, Tommy concocted a new opening for this scene, in which Johnny steps onto the Rooftop saying, “It’s not true! I did not hit her! It’s bullshit! I did not.” After which comes this: “Oh, hi, Mark.” There are seventeen words in this sequence. Eleven of them are nonrecurring; only one carries the burden of a second syllable. In other words, these are not terribly difficult lines to learn.
Sandy had blocked the scene so that Tommy would emerge from the outhouse; hit his mark on the second “I did not”; look up; nail his eyeline; say, “Oh, hi, Mark”; and walk off camera to where we, the audience, imagine Mark to be sitting. Most school plays contain scenes that pose bigger technical acting challenges.
Tommy couldn’t remember his lines. He couldn’t hit his mark. He couldn’t say “Mark.” He couldn’t walk. He couldn’t find his eyeline. He would emerge from the outhouse mumbling, lost, and disoriented. He looked directly into the camera. He swore. He exploded at a crew member for farting: “Please don’t do this ridiculous stuff. It’s disgusting like hell.” Sandy stood there so openmouthed that it looked as if he were waiting for someone to lob something nutritive at him.
>>
>>62799887
Finally Tommy commanded me to sit off camera, hoping that my becoming his living eye line would help him. It didn’t. Everything became infectiously not-funny funny. People were turning away from the set, their faces constipated with laughter they dared not release. Tommy didn’t notice any of this. He was locked into a scene and a moment he couldn’t bring to life. It was as horrifyingly transfixing as watching a baby crawl across the 405 freeway. We were all waiting for a miracle.
It took Tommy thirty minutes to feel comfortable enough to walk down the outhouse’s two steps without staring at his feet. It took another thirty minutes for him to take those two steps while also remembering his lines. With time, and effort, he got the walking-talking aspect of the performance down, but doing all this while hitting his mark and looking at me remained a grand fantasy. Sandy kept saying, “Now you need to look up when you say hi to Mark.” Tommy would nod. Yes. Indeed. Exactly what he needed to do. He would try, and try again.
Tommy/Johnny: “I did not.”
Sandy: “Look up!”
Tommy/Johnny: “Oh, hi, Mark.”
Sandy: “Up! Up!”
Sandy stopped everything and took Tommy aside. He tried to reason with him, as though Tommy’s understanding and not Tommy’s ability were the real problem. “You have to look at Mark when you say the line, okay? Because right now you’re looking down.”
“Okay,” Tommy said.
He’d rehearsed this moment for half the day and this was the result. Soon the cameraman was laughing so hard that his camera started to shake during takes.
Sandy decided to watch some VHS playbacks, to see if there was anything—anything at all—usable. I was still sitting off camera, feeling as though I’d been dosed with something potent. Tommy came over to me, looking worried. “How am I doing?” he asked. “Give me the feedback. Something.”
>>
>>62799906
It was a genuine request. I felt sorry for him at that moment. I knew how hard he was trying. I also knew that being a dramatic actor was the most important thing to Tommy. Everything he’d done in life was to get to this point. How could I help him? I had no idea.
“You’re doing great,” I said.
But the obvious peril Tommy was in—that the whole production was now in—had broken through his vanity. For once Tommy wanted something more than chummy assurance. “How,” Tommy asked again, more insistently, “am I doing? Don’t pull my legs!”
I looked around, thinking, Props, because props always helped Tommy; they took his mind off trying to act. I saw a nearby water bottle and grabbed it. “Here,” I said, handing the bottle to Tommy. “Use this. You know what you’re supposed to do, right? So do it. What do you always tell me? Show some emotion.”
Tommy smiled in pure, holy relief. “Why didn’t you tell me emotion? My God! That’s easy part! Now you see why I need you here? These other people don’t care.” He immediately started peeling off the water bottle’s sticker, because nothing scared Tommy more than having to pay someone for permission to use a logo. Tommy is probably the world’s single most copyright-obsessed human being who does not also have a law degree.
Sandy joined us on the side of the Rooftop set. He looked for a long time at Tommy’s water bottle before speaking. “What’s this?”
“Water bottle,” Tommy said.
Sandy took in a lungful of deep, calming breath. “Yes,” he said. “I know. What are we doing with it?”
“I need to throw something, dammit. During scene.”
Sandy turned away, removed his glasses, sat down, and rubbed his eyes.

Tommy headed back to the outhouse, his water bottle in hand and his script hidden in his breast pocket. I sat down. Sandy stood by the monitor. “Action!” The door flew open and there was Tommy holding his water bottle and stepping out of the outhouse and hitting his head on the doorjamb so hard that it took twenty minutes to ice the bump and conceal it with makeup. I heard one of the cameramen say, desperately, “How are we ever going to get this? It’s impossible. We’ll be here forever.”
Then, just for comic relief, Don and Brianna arrived on set to pick up their checks. Tommy, sitting in the makeup chair while Amy iced his forehead down, ignored them at first. Brianna talked to Juliette as Don ginned up the courage to approach Tommy. Their brief, chilly exchange ended with Tommy signing two $1,500 checks. Don, I could tell, was a little relieved not to be doing The Room. Really, he was surprisingly decent about the whole thing, even telling me that someday we’d be able to laugh about this. Tommy had deigned to acknowledge Don, but he wouldn’t, for whatever reason, talk to or even look at Brianna.
I gave Brianna her check. “Look at him,” she said, holding it as though about to rip it in half. Tommy was still sitting in makeup, pressing an ice pack to his forehead. “He won’t even acknowledge me. He’s such a pussy.”
Tommy noticed me idling too long with Brianna and called me over. “Greg! I need you here!” He wanted to continue running his lines. It was hopeless. He still couldn’t remember them—and now, to make things worse, it was possible he had a concussion.

Sandy and I huddled together and came up with a handy formula for Tommy to remember. When I returned to Tommy I said this: “Okay, so here’s what you do: ‘I did not,’ mad, mad, mad, throw the water bottle, stop, notice me, look up.” Tommy asked that I repeat the formula. Several times. “Show me once more,” Tommy said. By now his bruise had been buried beneath a beige snowdrift of concealer. He was, finally, ready. He took a breath, returned to the outhouse, and did the scene. At long last we got the shot. It took three hours and thirty-two takes, but we got the shot.
If you can, I implore you to watch this scene. It’s seven seconds long. Three hours. Thirty-two takes. And it was only the second day of filming.

I wasn't interested in the books originally because I thought it would just be laughing at how retarded Tommy is but from the few passages I've read it seems like Greg doesn't have any disdain towards him and actually even respects him in some weird way.
>>
>>62800187
They're relationship is, putting it mildly, a little complicated. I think at the end of the day Sestero does care for Wiseau a great deal despite how much of an obnoxious asshole he could be at times.

"Yeah," he said, looking up. "I see this big thing and big light and big events with stores and hotel and movie. All these things all together. It will be spectacular." He reached for his glass of hot water but hesitated before lifting it to his mouth. Tommy peered at me from beneath his large protruding brow. "And you can live in my planet, if you decide. Maybe I let you stay for a little while."

What did I think of living on Tommy's planet? I wasn't sure. What I was sure of was that Tommy had something I'd never seen in anyone else: a blind and unhinged and totally unfounded ambition. He was so out of touch, so lacking in self-awareness, yet also weirdly captivating. That night there was this aura around Tommy--an aura of the possible. Stick with him, I thought, and something WOULD happen, even if I had no idea what that something might b. Maybe that was it: Tommy made me listen to the right voices in my head. This big, childish vision of his-- what was it if not every actor's secret dream?
>>
I feel bad for Tommy in some sort of weird way. Even though it was terrible, he worked really hard for this movie and now everyone just shits on it so much to the point where he acts like he did it all intentionally
>>
>>62800309
My own planet was increasingly icy and lonely and minor. And while I did not rule out the possibility that Tommy's Planet was a civilization-ending comet headed my way, what if it wasn't?

"Here," Tommy said. "I have present for you." He handed me a red-white-and-blue pen, the casing of which bore the Street Fashions USA logo. He gave it to my as though it were a sacred scepter, as though I'd passed some test. When I looked more closely at the pen, I saw something else: a tiny globe with the words TOMMY'S PLANET printed across it.
>>
I read the book and even read the second draft of the script that's based off it and it was very okay. It moved oddly and I hate to be that fucking dick but it is missing the heart of the book. Sure, its got Tommys weird little quips like ordering hot water at restaurants and the memorable scenes from the movies and the catastrophic filming days but the emotion between Greg and Tommy is too messy. Hopefully they polish it a bit and Franco nails Tommy perfect.

Apart from the underwear the script is an interesting read. It has a lot of scenes that didn't appear in the movie. Claudette's cancer is actually mentioned in an another scene and in the alley football scene Mark comes in with a basketball.

>The Room deserves a documentary exploring the testimony of the people directly associated with the movie

Yep. It should be a documentary of The Disaster Artist pretty much, using Greg's template with talking head interviews and some of the extensive footage from behind the scenes. I'd much prefer that to Franco's feature.

>signed
Luckily only my script was signed. Haven't worn the undies desu, I'm more of a boxer briefs kinda guy.

and yes, the script is really interesting. Its also very specific. The weird pizza Lisa orders wasn't improvised, it was in the script. Also the drink Lisa makes Johnny drink is vodka (or scotch, can't remember which) + hot chocolate.

I just found out yesterday that most of this thing was filmed in the back lot of my company's old building.
My boss, the owner of the rental house, said Tommy invited the employees to the premier and they were the only ones there besides like 4 crew members. Tommy kept circling the block in a limo waiting for the photographers he hired to set up so they could get him on the red carpet. Gets out with two blonde chicks my boss assumes were escorts.

I know, but the narrative of the documentary is gonna be centered around the fan phenomenon, this means it won't actually be a movie for people that already love The Room

this is exactly what happened with Best Worst Movie, Lost Soul and the documentary of Superman Lives

too much "omg this was the worst movie ever!" but with nothing insightful about the origins

I'd love to see somethink like Jodorowsky's Dune. Just Tommy himself talking about concepts, about his creative process.

Lisa has nice tits desu.

Speaking of the Franco film, do we know who's gonna play Tommy?

Tommy's probably embarrassed by it. He had someone document the entire production process, and later had him film even more to spy on the cast and crew. Most of that footage is probably Tommy looking like an incompetent asshole and people talking shit about him.

Does anyone know where I can find a pdf of the book?
>>
>>62802750
Is this the first time you're on the internet?
>>
>>62802807
No

But I can't find it anywhere, only the audio book
>>
>>62802824
The audio book is excellent, anon. Greg Sestero immitating Tommy's accent is fucking hilarious.

I agree but I was hunting for the PDF, too

Oh nevermind, I'll just go buy the damn thing. It's worth it for Greg.

Tommy ran a fairly successful clothing store chain in San Fransisco that sold brand name products with minor faults in them (bad seams, missing belt loops etc.). He also owns several buildings in San Fransisco.
