The Room, writen, directed, produced and starring Tommy Wisseau, is certainly the worst movie ever shown at MovieNight, and arguably the worst movie ever made. Not just because the the writing and acting were bad, but because the directing was so bad that it made every actor’s performance terrible. He did manage to produce it though. This is a case where maybe the parents should have taken young Tommy aside, and had a long talk about how different people have different gifts… and perhaps they should have advised him never to show his butt to the camera after attaining a certain age! It was a great MovieNight though, and I learned one thing: in order to have great sex, you need a bed full of roses. I guess one little prick isn’t enough. ; )
We started the evening with a short from YouTube, entitled “Hitler watches The Room”, another of those often hysterical re-subtitled of the same scene from the Downfall, starring the amazing Bruno Ganz. Why hasn’t Downfall been shown at MovieNight? Well… it’s 2 1/2 hours long, and it’s about Hitler. Assuming anyone reads this blog, please let us know if you feel we should correct this shortcoming. It’s a great movie.
