Being James Franco

His brother Dave says that "as far as I know, it's a bad singer." Too soon to rule out a future drop in the music of James Franco, dammit. The American artist (for convenience we will call it so, but perhaps simplistic) these days is preparing for the conduct of Oscar night, Feb. 27, along with Anne Hathaway.

It will have a dual role, for one thing at a time just do not know): introduces the evening, we said, and could (but not too much) to take home the statuette for best actor for the role of the climber Aaron Alston. Greatest exponent of the generation slash, except for living by the rule that boys just want to bring multitasking, James Franco mill km and is built in an unstoppable career options, so that the New York Magazine has tried to keep up with him, and to calculate how much money they leave from the pockets in his eternal wandering (rightly thus eliminating the cost of food and a bed to sleep: it is clear that he does neither of these things!).

We feel that we too, to catalog its many experiences (of course it is missing here,, tell in comments). Star Film. Here, let's not forget the important things: first of all, James is an actor. In the category of the inevitable, however: by 2012 we will see at least eight films, including comedy Your Highness with Natalie Portman and Rise of the Apes, the remake of Planet of the Apes.

Soap-opera actor. It's not a snob, the guy. He accepted a part on General Hospital as long as his character "was an artist and he was crazy." And then of course we added another of his specialties, the "performance art". Because of what it was, not just a divertissement. Artist. His early work exposed them to a few months ago ClockTower Gallery in New York, now making a stop in Berlin, Peres Project.

The show was titled The Dangerous Book Four Boys and included a bit 'all' from photography to video art, sculpture, sketch. " But the best is yet to come: February 26 at the Gagosian Gallery in Los Angeles opens Unfinished, made in tandem with Gus Van Sant. James took scenes and footage shot backstage at the Van Sant film My Own Private Idaho and mounted them in a new movie than twelve hours, the director has created "portraits of young men who resemble the characters of my movie." Refrain wasters.

Student and mentor. Okay, once they caught dozing during a lecture at Yale (maybe he was just planning a remake of Sleeping Beauty ...). But that does not say that James is not a serious student: he refused the invitation to those of FoxSearchlight watching the live announcement of nominees at the Oscars in order not to lose a few hours of lessons.

At Columbia University have won a lot of dedication to the workshop "Editing James Franco ... with James Franco", where students created a documentary about him from the movies offered by Franco himself. Writer. He made his debut with the collection of short stories Palo Alto, the conflicting reviews.

In many encouraged him to continue. According to you if you let him say it twice? Director. He shot a few short, documentary and three films, back when it was not a star of multitasking. Now he secured the rights to film adaptation of several books, from Ham on Rye by Charles Bukowski and The Broken Tower by Hart Crane.

So, if he had any half-day off. Testimonial. It was the face of Gucci by Gucci fragrance, but will consider it really work? Above all, never thought to throw in cosmetics? Entrepreneur. He has just opened a bar called Writer's Room. The address is still secret, but there is said that James will host an exclusive after-Oscars party.

Here, it is also an organizer of events. James Franco gets ready for Oscar night
