Tommy Wiseau
An enigma wrapped in a riddle, director Tommy Wiseau was born in 1955, in Poznań, Poland. He began his active filmmaking years in 2003, creating pieces primarily in the drama and comedy genres, with his most famous (or infamous) film being "The Room," a cult phenomenon often hailed as the best worst movie ever made. Wiseau's authorial style is marked by his eccentricity, both on and off screen, with bizarre dialogue, inexplicably odd plotlines, and a complete disregard for conventional filmmaking norms, which has surprisingly not earned him any major film festival awards. The elusive Mr. Wiseau, with his enigmatic past and peculiar accent, remains a beloved figure in the world of cinema for his unwavering dedication to his unique vision.
