REEL NEWS:What's James Franco up to this week? After writing a sub-beatnik novel, appearing in General Hospitalas part of some art experiment, staging an exhibition of his paintings and sabotaging the Oscars, the supposed renaissance man has now decided to direct a documentary on the pornography industry.

He commented: “Those people in pornos, they are great performers; they’re not just doing it, they’re selling it to an audience ... They’re performing so that an audience can get turned on by that kind of thing.” Sounds lovely.
