Description
Join Penn Cinema for a special evening with Greg Sestero, star of THE ROOM and the New York Times best-selling author of the Oscar-nominated THE DISASTER ARTIST.
Whether or not Tommy Wiseau intentionally shot his film as a “black comedy”, or if he is simply a completely inept filmmaker (and actor) is utterly irrelevant. THE ROOM will stand the test of time as one of the most mind-bendingly awesome offerings to ever drop from the celluloid heavens.
Completely financed and distributed by Mr. Wiseau, this divine piece of WTF-ery has built a cult following playing midnight screenings across the country and solidified its place as an insanely unique phenomenon. The Guardian described it as a mix of “Tennessee Williams, Ed Wood and R. Kelly’s Trapped in the Closet.” That’s about as apt a description as we could possibly provide.
Greg also wrote and produced BEST F(R)IENDS Volume 1 and 2 and was most recently seen in Netflix’s popular gothic-drama mini-series THE HAUNTING OF BLY MANOR. His directorial horror genre debut MIRACLE VALLEY is slated for release in 2022. It is the first very first film to ever shoot at Frank Lloyd Wright’s world-renowned masterpiece Falling Water.
