The Room is a 2003 independent film written and directed by its star, Tommy Wiseau, who is also credited on screen as both the movie’s producer and executive producer. [2]

The Room was sooo much cooler when the entrance was in the back alley. [3]

A film with the passion of Tennessee Williams. [1]

I remember the time when Swingers was the movie that pretty much summed up the Los Angeles Bar/Club culture, and I was right along with them. [3]

Wiseau promotes the film as a black comedy and insists that its humor is actually intentional, although cast members have publicly disputed these claims and many audience members generally view the film as a poorly-made drama. [2]

The Room is Harold Pinter ’s first play, written and first produced in 1957. [4]

Fandango, the ultimate movie ticketing destination, is your source for movie tickets and movie times. [5]

The principal cast includes Wiseau, Juliette Danielle, Greg Sestero, Philip Haldiman, Carolyn Minnott, and Robyn Paris. [2]

Though the single-dwelling two-story house in the later play is in an unidentified “seaside town,” and it is purportedly a bed and breakfast -type rooming house run by a childless middle-aged married couple, the building in which Rose and Bert Hudd inhabit their “room” is a multi-dwelling rooming house of more than two stories, and, while Rose accepts being addressed as “Mrs. Hudd”, Bert Hudd and she may not actually be legally married to each other, which may be a factor leading to her defensiveness throughout the play. [4]

It’s a small compact bar with a small dance floor if you can squeeze yourself into it. [3]

The Room, as the play was called, was eventually staged by the Bristol Drama Department in May 1957 in a converted squash-court and in a production by Woolf himself” (66′67). [4]

Pinter wrote The Room over two or four days in 1957, depending on the account, at the suggestion of his friend Henry Woolf for his production as part of a postgraduate program in directing at the University of Bristol, Bristol, England. [4]

Roxana Saberi is an American journalist who was sentenced in April 2009 to eight years in prison by the Iranian government after being convicted of spying for the United States. [3]

Saberi can leave Iran anytime, free from an 8-year prison sentence for espionage that came down from an Iranian court last month, although she’s barred from reporting from Iran for the next five years. [2]

Ms. Saberi, who holds dual American-Iranian citizenship, grew up in Fargo, N.D., and went to Iran in 2003. [3]

Roxana Saberi was working as a freelance journalist in Iran when she was arrested in January 2009. [4]

) (born April 26, 1977) is an American journalist who was arrested in Iran in January 2009. [...] On April 8, 2009, the Iranian government charged Saberi with espionage, which she denied. [5]

The Committee to Protect Journalists reports that in 2008, Iran was the sixth-leading jailer of journalists and Reporters Without Borders has ranked it 172 out of 175 countries in the world in terms of press freedom. [4]

Saberi was released from prison on May 11 after an Iranian court reduced her initial eight-year prison term, delivered on charges of spying for the United States, to a two-year suspended sentence. [...] Iranian-American reporter Roxana Saberi waves as she stands next to her father Reza at the end of a press briefing outside their home in Tehran on May 12, 2009. [2]

The United States State Department had called the charges against her baseless and asked that she be freed. [3]

An appeals court reduced the charge against her from espionage to possessing classified information, a charge which she also denied, and reduced her eight-year prison term to a two-year suspended sentence. [5]

Iranian prosecutors then accused her of working as a journalist without a valid press card. [1]

Her book Between Two Worlds tells the story of her arrest and captivity in Iran. [4]
