*********************

Greg Sestero is the New York Times best-selling author of the Oscar-nominated The Disaster Artist and Co-Star of the cult classic The Room. 

Greg also recently wrote and produced Best F(r)iends Volume 1 and Volume 2 (Lionsgate) and was recently seen in Netflix's popular gothic-drama mini-series The Haunting of Bly Manor. 

His directorial/ horror genre debut, Miracle Valley, is slated for release in 2022. It is the first very first film to ever shoot at Frank Lloyd Wright’s world renowned masterpiece Falling Water. 

Greg's 2013 memoir “The Disaster Artist: My Life Inside The Room, the Greatest Bad Movie Ever Made” was published by Simon & Schuster and adapted into a Golden Globe-winning film by Warner Bros and A24. It showcases an all-star cast including James Franco, Seth Rogen, Dave Franco, Sharon Stone, Bryan Cranston, and Alison Brie. The hilarious and heartfelt film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay at the 2018 Oscars.


As a warm-up event, we will screen the THE DISASTER ARTIST in Bem Mozi on September 24th at 8:00 PM!

THE ROOM
(in English with Hungarian subtitles)
USA, 99’, 2003

directed by Tommy Wiseau
starring: Tommy Wiseau, Juliette Danielle, Greg Sestero

In San Francisco, an amiable banker's seemingly perfect life is turned upside down when his deceitful fiancée embarks on an affair with his best friend.

A number of publications have labeled The Room as one of the worst films ever made.  The Room quickly became a cult film due to its bizarre and unconventional storytelling, technical and narrative issues, and Wiseau's off-kilter performance.

(The Disaster Artist, Greg Sestero's memoir of the making of The Room, was co-written with Tom Bissell and 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. A remake starring Bob Odenkirk is in development.)
