You might not believe that Dah Cong kept a smirk in the code word when writing this article .

Da Cong never recommends bad movies to everyone, but this time it is really an exception. Wall Crack suggests that everyone go to a 2003 movie called "The Room" .

This movie can be called the worst bad movie in history, but you may not have thought that this movie is still regularly shown in a few theaters in the United States, and because of the small number of shows, the venues are often full.

Because of its rottenness, many audiences come here in admiration, and it has even become a form of partying for young American audiences.

You read it right, and Da Cong did not write it wrong. The audience who went to the movie would bring some props in the movie, such as soup spoons, apples and American football, etc., while watching the movie and having a party, the movie scene was so lively , Just like a group of "nervous diseases" watching movies.

After more than ten years of tempering, the movie "Room" has gradually become a symbol of a cult , and it has formed a circle of fans.

Some enthusiastic fans will also perform a classic section of "The Room" in an extremely unsuitable venue , frightening passers-by to retreat three feet for unknown reasons.

At that time, the production cost of "The Room" was US$6 million, which is not a small figure, and the movie was released within two weeks of its release, and the box office was only a pitiful more than US$1,000.

But it is precisely because of the two-week release that has received many unbelievable and endless comments, which has lifted the curiosity of many viewers and wanted to get a closer look at "The Room".

So Tommy , the director, screenwriter, producer, star and distributor of the film, paid his own money to maintain the film's continuous release.

And Tommy also let "Room" sign up for the Oscar competition that year, and of course the result can be imagined.

But what we are going to talk about today is of course not about "The Room" and Oscars, but because of the movie "The Room", a movie called "Disaster Artist" was born.

Yes, today Da Cong does not only recommend everyone to watch "The Room", but more importantly, recommend this "Disaster Artist".

If you watch "The Room" first and then watch "Disaster Artist", you will resonate more with the latter, find more laughs, and maybe even laugh out your abs.

"Disaster Artist" is a comedy film directed and acted by James Franco . The story is to restore the scenes and scenes of "The Room" at that time.

"Disaster Artist" also unexpectedly became a well-known comedy in 2017, and was shortlisted for the best adapted screenplay at the 2018 Oscars.

Why is the script adapted? Although "Disaster Artist" has a lot to do with "The Room", the script is adapted from the memoir of the same name by the "Room" male number two.

This memoir of "Disaster Artist" became a best-selling book once it was published .

"Disaster Artist" can be said to restore the mysterious filming process of "The Room" to the audience in a humorous but authentic way.

Behind the laughter, everyone also saw the innocent and innocent journey of "The Room" director Tommy. Those bad and classic "Room" dialogues and scenes have become the focus of "Disaster Artist".

For example, on the rooftop, Tommy's anger instantly turned into a calm classic section. Tommy also said with outrage in front of him:

"I didn't beat her, nonsense, I didn't..."

He immediately recovered his calm and greeted Mark.

For example, when Tommy and Lisa were chatting, they suddenly became emotional and shouted:

"You have made me suffer!!!"

These pupils can see the rotten performance, which was vividly imitated by Franco in "The Disaster Artist".

Coincidentally, when Tommy was filming The Room, he said that this role was originally played by Johnny Depp or James Franco (I really wanted to be beautiful at the time). Unexpectedly, Tommy's dream now comes true.

Franco also won the best actor in the music/comedy category at the 2018 Golden Globe Awards for "Disaster Artist". When he came to the stage to receive the award, he did not forget to call Tommy on the podium, which gave the director of this bad film in history a close experience. The awards scene.

Tommy came to power was to usher in a warm cheers, feeling good he almost grabbed the microphone Franco, Franco was an emergency stop, easy to see, Tommy drama off screen is really a big cult . (Cover your face and laugh.jpg)

Having said so much, it seems that this bad film "The Room" needs to be double quoted, but there is no such thing. "The Room" is really a bad movie worthy of the name.

The plot of "Room" is actually very simple. It says that the hero and heroine are already engaged, but the heroine likes the hero's friends and decides not to marry the heroine.

The love triangle soap plot that could be talked about in ten minutes was forced to stretch to the length of a movie. In the first half an hour of the film, the protagonist and heroine had sex with no words, and it must be accompanied by the old song and dance hall. Repertoire to enhance the atmosphere.

The whole plot of "The Room" is like the mood of the male protagonist. The preface is not followed by words. For example, the female protagonist and her mother talked over and over again, and those dialogues would not even be so nutritious in daily life.

The most classic is the heroine's mother said:

"I'm dying, I know exactly that I have breast cancer."

The hostess returned to her mother without emotion:

"Mom, don't worry, everything will be fine."

Anyone who knows a little bit of common sense knows that if you know that your mother has a terminal illness for the first time, it will definitely not be a plain water reaction, but this is how the mother and daughter in "The Room" talk.

And after watching the movie, you will find that this kind of movie will never require 6 million US dollars in production costs. "Disaster Artist" allows us to see how this 6 million is spent.

He didn't understand that film shooting equipment was generally rented rather than bought, so he decided to buy the shooting equipment all at once.

He didn't know how to choose between filming or digital filming before making a film, so he decided to film digitally together.

So why the composition of the "Room" you see is a bit off? It's not that the photographer didn't choose the composition, but that two cameras of two specifications should be put on the same camera in a scene...

If you look carefully, you can see that the "Room" screen suddenly jitters from time to time. It is not the photographer deliberately, but because the set was so funny when shooting. The photographer can't help but laugh while shooting, please Forgive the "unprofessional" photographer.

What's even more bizarre is that you can use the same budget to find a rooftop scene with a good view, but Tommy wants to shoot on a green screen in the studio, which is known as Hollywood blockbusters.

In fact, the most weird thing is not these, but the extremely embarrassing sex scenes in the film.

Generally speaking, the filming of sex scenes must be cleared, for example, the cut scenes of the domestically released version of "Lust Caution" that everyone knows, only the actors and directors, as well as the photographers were left on the set.

But "The Room" director Tommy asked everyone to stay on the scene and asked the photographer to shoot close-ups on his chrysanthemum line. The reason he gave was that this is the biggest selling point of the film.

This kind of self-confidence is not there anymore.

All the details before and after the shooting of "The Room" were accurately restored by "Disaster Artist", which also allowed the audience to see how a god-level bad film was born.

Many people will ask why "The Room" is so bad and so popular that so many people follow it.

Because what we usually call bad movies is indexed, that is, to analyze the script, story logic, performance, lens language, etc. of a movie from a more professional perspective.

We find some shortcomings, if a movie has too many unsatisfactory, then it will become a bad movie.

But "The Room" failed from the beginning to the end. Such a bad film index of 100% created a unique temperament in "The Room".

Many people say that Tommy is like an alien from outer space (Tommy Star). This alien just likes Hollywood, so he used his alien logic to make a movie that violates all the earth. The audience’s movie-watching logic cannot be learned by others.

Of course, "Disaster Artist" is not to absorb the bad of "Room", but to grab the strangeness of "Room", and then dig deep into the root and purity of this strangeness, and make it into a comedy movie with normal logic.

In "Disaster Artist", we see that Tommy is innocent, he has bold and confident behavior, and then he met the young Gray. The two of them, like many people with movie dreams, want to go to Hollywood.

But Tommy’s strange accent and unmarginal performance make it difficult for a film company to recognize him, and Gray also runs into trouble. Although he finally found an agency, his agent used "Hollywood off-season" to perfuse him. .

So Tommy decided to write, direct and act in a movie at his own expense. He used this adventure that was doomed to failure in everyone's eyes to complete his simple dream.

In addition, "Disaster Artist" not only shows Tommy's authenticity and bravery, but also digs deeper into the friendship between Tommy and Gray.

In the film, because Gray has a handsome baby face and good popularity, his career has finally improved and he has a girlfriend. Tommy, who has always been withdrawn because of his personality, is about to lose his only friendship because of " "Jealous" had a conflict with Gray.

But in the end they were at the premiere of the movie together. When the audience laughed at "The Room", only Gray was the only one who comforted Tommy.

In the interview with Tommy, he was also very moved by the last scene of "Disaster Artist". He said that it was real and Gray is still his best and only friend to this day.

Using a bad movie, Tommy harvested an eternal friendship. He is happy. Just like the line in "Disaster Artist", Tommy said to Gray:

"I made the whole movie for you."

    The theater was full, and every original film stalk was clapped with applause, like the effect of a classic movie fanatical charter ~ "Hitchcock doesn't have this treatment", really.

    A movie about movies, reminds me of "Ed Wood", who is also a bad film director who pursues his dreams, but he is also full of persistence; Fu Lanlan plays new tricks, and there is a deep sadness behind the madness.
