Do you want to watch some behind the scenes footage from The Room?

Nearly twenty minutes of it? Of course you do!

If you've never had the dubious pleasure, The Room is a fascinating entry in the annals of filmmaking. Written, produced, directed, funded by and starring wave of awkwardness Tommy Wiseau, the story of how it came to be is infinitely more interesting than the plot of the film itself - and covered in cringeworthy detail on the film's wikipedia page.

And if you have ever seen The Room, then used part of your brainspace to wonder what the atmosphere would be like on the set of such a magical trainwreck, well you're bang in luck. The 2005 DVD release features a 'making of', which some poor sod went to the trouble of ripping to YouTube after presumably editing down for some unexplained reason: the Amazon description describes it as "a half-hour or so".

It's mostly/strangely shots of the digital and 35mm cameras Wiseau purchased by accident (famously making the most of his error by mounting them side-by-side and shooting the film in both formats), interspersed with the odd quote from cast and crew. Highlights are the revelation that the rooftop scenes were filmed in green-screen, and a lovely shot of Wiseau smiling to himself contentedly towards the end. Enjoy!
