The Room – Special Screening with Greg Sestero Live In-Person
UNITED Main Cinema
Join us for the first ever live screening in RI of the cult-classic film The Room with Mark himself, AKA NYT bestselling author/The Room star Greg Sestero on site for a live Q&A and meet and greet.
The Room is a 2003 film written, directed, and produced by Tommy Wiseau, who also stars in the film alongside Juliette Danielle and Greg Sestero. Set in San Francisco, the film is centered around a melodramatic love triangle between amiable banker Johnny (Wiseau), his deceptive fiancée Lisa (Danielle), and his conflicted best friend Mark (Sestero).
Originally shown only in a limited release in California, The Room quickly became a cult film due to its bizarre and unconventional storytelling, technical and narrative issues, and Wiseau’s performance. The Disaster Artist, Sestero’s memoir of the making of The Room, was published in 2013. A film of the same title based on the book, directed by and starring James Franco, was released on December 1, 2017; the book and film received widespread acclaim and numerous award nominations.
