Tommy Wiseau. The man is a mystery wrapped in an enigma. And he's infinitely more interesting than his work (if you can call it that).
shareA friend of mine mentioned this guy when I asked! I'll definitely check him out... Is there a certain interview, video on Youtube? Thanks.
shareUmm... I can't think of a specific one, but knowing the guy, I'd say any. You might look at some scenes from The Room as well (if you haven't already). He plays the main character, who is basically an Author Avatar.
shareYeah, I wanted to mention him too but I forgot his name. Lol. I read about Tommy Wiseau in IMDb trivia section and it's very interesting, at least about how he produced his movie The Room. I haven't even watched the movie.
shareThere is a movie being made, based on a book by one of the cast of The Room, The Disaster Artist. It might even be finished already. And a documentary, Room Full of Spoons (haven't seen it). Wiseau tried to ban that one from a film festival (or maybe he even succeeded, I don't remember). He's a character, that Wiseau.
As for the movie itself, it was on Youtube the last time I checked. As far as bad movies go, it's one of the more enjoyable. And, at least he tried. He failed epically, but I can respect the effort.
John Cassavetes is very interesting, but so are his movies.
shareNeil Breen. His films are "interesting" to say the least. To me, Guy just seems like an alien who's trying to learn of our ways
