BFSBozeman Film Society (BFS) will take viewers to the West Coast & abroad w/ character-driven titles
BFS will host a special double feature presentation of awards season hit The Disaster Artist and The Room on Sunday, March 11th at 3:30pm and 6:30pm, respectively.
A delightful tribute to the joy and madness of making movies, The Disaster Artist follows the outrageous adventures of eccentric filmmaker Tommy Wiseau and his best friend, actor Greg Sestero, as they film cult classic, “The Room.”
The Room follows the story of Johnny (Wiseau), a bank employee who, seemingly, lives happily in a San Francisco townhouse with Lisa, his fiancée. One day she gets bored with Tommy and seduces his best friend, Mark — played by Wiseau’s best friend, Greg Sestero. This, as one of the many famous quotes from the movie confirms, tears him apart. Sestero went on to write the 2013 memoir, The Disaster Artist, made into the award-winning film by James Franco.
Of the Franco-starer, New York Magazine writes, “Pure genius. A tribute to those who dream so big and fail so spectacularly that they actually triumph!”
The Disaster Artist is Rated R with a runtime of 115 minutes. The Room is also Rated R, running 100 minutes.
