A few Saturdays ago, myself, Jay, Dan, Joe, and LeeAnne all went to Brookline for a midnight showing of The Room. I had never been to a midnight screening for this movie, neither had Joe. And LeeAnne hadn't seen the movie at all. But it was the strangest yet funniest experience of my life. It was so worth the 10 dollars.

First, for anyone who hasn't heard of The Room, it is a dramatic masterpiece by famed director Tommy Wiseau. And that was all sarcasm. The movie tries to be dramatic but just fails. I have seen the movie a few times, and I am not even sure if I can explain the plot. But I will try. The movie is directed, produced, and stars Tommy Wiseau. Tommy Wiseau has this accent that just can't be placed. It also stars some other people that don't matter. Tommy plays a banker (I think) named Johnny who is in love with a bitch named Lisa. Lisa is this ungrateful woman that uses Johnny and lives in his apartment. Her and Johnny are engaged. But get this, Lisa doesn't love Johnny. She loves Johnny's best friend Mark (Mark is Johnny's best friend) Lisa complains about not loving Johnny the whole movie to everyone. She mostly complains to her mother. Her mother's name is Claudette, and she has breast cancer. But according to Lisa they are curing breast cancer everyday. Then there is Denny, who comes into Johnny and Lisa's apartment to watch them have sex. He also does drugs, which is not okay!

Some other fun facts about the room:
Johnny and his friends like to play football in their tuxes
Johnny has a picture of a spoon in his living room. Whenever you see that picture, you must shout SPOON!!! and throw plastic spoons at the screen
When Johnny and Lisa first have sex (BLURGH!!!!!)Lisa's hair changes styles like 5 times before they actually do anything
This movie has an amazing soundtrack (not)
The flower shop scene is the shortest and most random scene in cinema.

LeeAnne's reactions to this movie was priceless. The best one was when Lisa is complaining to one of her friends about guess who? Johnny! And everyone in the theatre is shouting "GROSS!!!" "LOOK AT HER!!!!" "AAAAHHH!!!!" Now at first I thought they were just shouting these things because it is Lisa. But then LeeAnne goes "OH GOD!!! HANNAH, LOOK AT HER NECK!!!!" So I do. And I see this golf ball sized adam's apple just bulging from the side of Lisa's neck that whole entire scene. It was the grossest thing I have ever seen. Now thanks to LeeAnne, I can never unsee this image.
