RE: The Disaster Artist (film): extremely good biographical film
In fact, our whole life is a kind of simulator. We were put in a doll house and given us a role that we must match. These roles are dictated by parents, teachers and society. For us, for a long time already everyone has decided that we have to dress, what to eat, who to love, with whom to be friends and whom to level with. For our convenience, we traced the boundary of the so-called norm, in which we are comfortable. But there are pupae that see beyond these borders, and are ready to wash them. Then inevitably they get labels: "Frick", "Strange", "Madman" and society begins to reject them. And not because we are so bad, but because it goes beyond our norm, it worries us and the subconscious tries to defend itself by betraying aggression, ridicule or disdain. Such a doll was Tommy Wiseau, he saw the world differently and wanted to show it to us with his own eyes, but was not understood. After some time, James and Dave Franco decided to tell us this story and what happens. We have already been told that we love these guys, they are already part of our comfort, so we are ready to listen and hear them. Now Wiseau does not frighten us. Has he stopped being a madman for us? Hardly, but now we are ready to accept it, we were told how to understand it and we understood it. Has it made Tommy any easier? I doubt it. After all, there will be another Tommy Wiseau and it will all start again, and we can only perceive it through the other James and Dave Franco. In such situations, unfortunately, such people either break down or adapt. As personally I hope and even for the film, Tommy chose the second way. After all, it is madmen who are able to change this world, success - it is not a norm in itself!
I watched a youtube video where Tommy voices over a scene from "The Disaster Artist" and attempts to explain movie techniques to the audience and he struggles to be coherent for the most part and goes off on wild tangents that let us know that yeah, this is definitely the same guy who wrote the Room.
