My favourite bit:
“Well, you see,” he states, “you have to understand you cannot control the audience, that’s number one. I don’t know if you have opportunity to see Cleopatra, of Elizabeth Taylor, the first movie who they spend a lot money, et cetera et cetera. And you see Lisa, character in The Room— everybody laugh right now, and say, ‘Wait a minute, what’s he talking about?’— what I’m talking about: human behavior, how woman can be [deceitful] but at the same time be nice, how far the girl can go. Some people say, ‘Oh, you bashed this.’ No, I’m not bashing, I’m just comparing, because you see, again, my goal in The Room was to present a character, Lisa, she has full control of everything that’s within the room, and suddenly she lose the control, just like Cleopatra. I rest my case. Now, to respond to your sort of question-slash-statement, absolutely, I’m pro freedom. So, I’m far away from control the audience…”
He's screening The Room here on Saturday. Totally going.
