It's a biographical tale of "Room," where Rotten demonstrates "how to play someone who's really bad at acting," a cult movie that's been recast as a comedy of the highest quality.
What is a cult? The Room is a true cult.
The film festival got tickets for "The Disaster Artist", so I watched "Room", which I have always heard of. The four bed scenes after the opening really surprised me... And the characters' line skills are really disaster, Tommy is unique I won't talk about the style, Lisa's mother's lines are... wow, the machine is crazy! It seems that I recalled the scene in middle school when the non-native English teacher in English listening was slowly reciting the straightforward dialogue... The most bizarre thing is that the protagonists started tossing football inexplicably, and Mark knocked Mike down inexplicably. already...? ? ?
"Room" can be said to have no bright spots, a really bad film. However, just like the "three points and seven points" of cross talk, such a bad film had a strange chemical reaction with the fans. The nonsensical scene really became a classic scene. The fans threw plastic spoons, footballs, and Johny shouted from the air... This is a unique experience that cannot be experienced by watching other movies, nor in theaters. To a certain extent, it is a pioneer, an innovation, and a performance art.
And "Disaster Artist" formally describes this kind of performance art, packs the body and Tucao together, and presents it in the form of a regular movie. I have to say that Fu Lan has a talent for comedy. He understands the humor/sarcasm of the "Room" phenomenon very well. In addition to his excellent acting skills, he has created a comedy movie with a high degree of completion and won an award. It can be said that it deserves its name.
In this movie, we have a more comprehensive understanding of Tommy Weisu (although we may not be able to understand him...), he is rich, has a weird temper, is stubborn, and is careful to deliberately embarrass others. At the same time, he has a rare and valuable Perseverance, he pursues the Hollywood-style way of making movies, he pays tribute to the movies he likes in the films, he zealously hopes that the actors he loves can appear, he cherishes his friends and cherishes his dream of being an actor, even though he is in the middle of his dream There are many difficulties on the road, but he never thought of giving up. He has such determination and such capital, or in other words, assets...
To be honest, at the end of the film, at the premiere of "Room", Tommy burst into tears amid the audience's laughter. This scene made me a little mixed - what one person made with painstaking effort could only be exchanged for everyone's ridicule, to put it bluntly. , is a failure. More ironically, this kind of failure has become a specimen, which is often turned over and tasted.
Has Tommy's dream come true? I guess it's hard to say. Although the film was made, no one recognized it in the end. "Room" is not a complete work, but when it adds fans and theaters, this is its complete body.
In any case, Tommy's greatest achievement may be to let more people know the word "cult".
