As a director (Franco has directed more than a dozen films), Franco has a keen sense of storytelling, and frames «The Disaster Artist» with appreciation for «The Room,» opening with a host of famous faces talking about the film and closing with
recreations of key scenes paired side - by - side with the originals.
The recreations of key scenes from that kitsch classic are shot with stunningly tacky verisimilitude and played to the scrappy hilt by an up - for - anything cast, including Zac Efron, Ari Graynor, Josh Hutcherson and Jacki Weaver.
The trailer is pretty much a shot - for - shot
recreation of the key scenes from the movie that have been shared over the last few months.
