Hallelujah: The Room, written, directed, and starring Tommy Wiseau will screen again at Market Street Cinema on June 27th at 9:00pm.
if you have talked to me in the past five months you know that I am an obsessed “The Room” devotee. I will not rest until it plays sold out crowds in every city for the rest of my life. My first city of torment is finally happening: Little Rock.
I don’t think I’ve ever laughed so hard at a film in the theater that I had to seriously try to regain composure for health reasons. During the screening of The Room I had to squeeze the sides of my head from all the blood pressure going to my brain. Like Ricky Gervais touts on his podcast “I’m going to burst.” It’s like a brain freeze from drinking a Slurpee too fast. I just get caught up in the film’s endless humor and absurdity.
I’ve seen the film about five times now and for some reason I actually look forward to seeing it on a regular basis, like Breaking Bad (only in the same category of addictiveness not quality).
Well if you’re totally loss and have no idea what I’m talking about or you want to get “laugh migraines” like me here’s some tips and tricks and factoids about the Room that will hopefully get you to see this masterpiece.
