What did you think of this film?
What do the most ravishingly beautiful actress of the 1930s and 40s and the inventor whose concepts were the basis of cell phone and bluetooth technology have in common? They are both Hedy Lamarr, the glamour icon whose ravishing visage was the inspiration for Snow White and Cat Woman and a technological trailblazer who perfected a radio system to throw Nazi torpedoes off course during WWII. Weaving interviews and clips with never-before-heard audio tapes of Hedy speaking on the record about her incredible life—from her beginnings as an Austrian Jewish emigre to her scandalous nude scene in the 1933 film Ecstasy to her glittering Hollywood life to her ground-breaking, but completely uncredited inventions to her latter years when she became a recluse, impoverished and almost forgotten.

Disaster Artist, The (2017)*

Title: The Disaster Artist
Rating: R
Directed by: James Franco
Written by: Scott Neustadter, and Michael H. Weber
Based on the book by: Greg Sestero, and Tom Bissell
Starring: James Franco, Dave Franco, and Seth Rogen
Release Date: 12/8/2017
Running Time: 103 minutes

Official Site
IMDb

What did you think of this film?
With The Disaster Artist, James Franco transforms the tragicomic true-story of aspiring filmmaker and infamous Hollywood outsider Tommy Wiseau—an artist whose passion was as sincere as his methods were questionable—into a celebration of friendship, artistic expression, and dreams pursued against insurmountable odds. Based on Greg Sestero’s best-selling tell-all about the making of Tommy’s cult-classic disasterpiece The Room (“The Greatest Bad Movie Ever Made”), The Disaster Artist is a hilarious and welcome reminder that there is more than one way to become a legend—and no limit to what you can achieve when you have absolutely no idea what you’re doing.

We see James Franco as Tommy Wiseau at an outdoor party and the real Tommy Wiseau comes up to him as another character and starts talking in the same accent when the REAL Tommy Wiseau leaves James Franco saying to himself “What a weird guy”.
