The Untold Truth Of Tommy Wiseau

By now, if you don't know Tommy Wiseau, it's time to reorient your life. Seriously. The best thing you can do tonight is clear your schedule, rent The Room, and finally learn why all your friends have been yelling things like, "You're tearing me apart, Lisa!" and "Oh, hi Mark!" for all these years.

Put simply, Tommy Wiseau is a cinematic legend of the Ed Wood variety. His magnum opus is The Room, a movie he produced, wrote, directed, and stars in. This flick is, well ... the sort of thing that can't be explained in words. Dripping with passion and sincerity, clearly a labor of love, every single aspect of The Room is bizarrely off-kilter, as if an alien from Mars was trying to do its best impression of Earthling customs. Now, The Room's sheer oddness would be enough to make Wiseau a B-movie icon, but it's the strange (and unexplained) mystery surrounding his origins that truly fuels the increasingly widespread fascination with him. No one but Tommy knows the truth about where Tommy comes from, much less what his real name is, or why he's dripping with enough cash to make Scrooge McDuck jealous. 

Basically, this fella is the celebrity equivalent to Bigfoot, and though he's definitely real, most of the alleged details about his life are questionable. That said, in the past few years, some key information has leaked.
