The Room

TOMMY WISEAU REALLY WANTED TO GO TO THE ACADEMY AWARDS

The Room creator and subject of The Disaster Artist,Tommy Wiseau, was more than happy to attend the Independent Film Awards on Saturday. Up to the last minute he tried to score a ticket to the Oscars but failed. He asked Mark Hamill if he could help him get a ticket but Mark said he couldn’t even get his kids tickets. It’s too bad for Tommy that James Franco got himself caught up in the “Me Too” movement and it cast a pall on The Disaster Artist. If Tommy fails to get a seat at the Oscars, we bet he’ll finagle his way into a few parties – without Franco.

BRIE LARSON: THE GIRL MOST LIKELY

Best Actress nominee Brie Larson, 26, arrived at LAX without much fanfare, but those days will soon be over. She took a very dreary challenging role in the movie Room and made it something special. The movie was not easy to watch, but her performance was subtle and brilliant. Brie’s main Oscar competition is likely Saoirse Ronan in Brooklyn but that role too closely resembled Saoirse’s own life story. Brie’s currently filming the big budget extravaganza Kong: Skull Island and she’s been working in various far-away jungle locations in third world countries. We think she’ll have an Oscar in her suitcase when she flies back to the jungle.
