The ever-growing cultural footprint of The Roomhas transcended cult classic status and vaulted into the mainstream. From “Oh hi, Mark” to “You’re tearing me apart, Lisa!”, everyone knows you’re quoting Tommy Wiseau‘s 2003 disasterpiece when you repeat these lines. The widespread embracing of The Room and the mysterious Wiseau peaked in 2017 when a feature-length film, The Disaster Artist, was made to honor the bizarre legacy of The Room and the sincere admiration towards its DIY free spirit. What if we told you that, only a year after the release of James Franco‘s biopic, Wiseau and Room star Greg Sestero reunited after all these years? Most people are oblivious to this reunion, a two-part film called Best F(r)iends, and while it is more assured and dignified in its craft, it nonetheless taps into the peculiar energy that inspired the 21st century’s totemic midnight classic.
