The Disaster Artist

This was a very entertaining story that I thoroughly enjoyed. The central character, Tommy is off-the-dial strange and mysterious. He's apparently developed a number of bizarre methods for dealing with some of his personal issues. While his behavior borders on paranoia and seems to tenacious about his privacy, he's going full out after his dream of being a famous actor. The fact that the author, Greg is a young, straight-laced guy with the similar aspirations (which is how they met) makes him the perfect straight man for Tommy. The wide range of mysteries about Tommy along with his unpredictable behavior work well in holding your interest. Unfortunately not all those mysteries are resolved in the end.

Tommy is an emotional and dynamic guy who is primarily led by his id and seems to have no qualms about it. He can be boorish and wildly insensitive. It's often not possible to detect his motives, but all in all he comes off as a likable character.



I watched both movies

Definitely worth a read,
