Trailer
Why watch this film?
This is a biopic about Tommy Wiseau, a mysterious person who takes acting very seriously and in 2003 directed, wrote, and acted in the movie 'The Room'. The production, now regarded as cult, has the reputation of being "the worst tape in history". Directed and starred by James Franco, this is a feature-length "Hollywood on Hollywood" style and is a mature comedy without mocking Tommy Wiseau's figure. Highly recommended for fans of the duo James Franco and Seth Rogen.

As I Lay Dying
The movie directed by James Franco is based on the novel by American novelist William Faulkner. The film was featured at the Cannes Film Festival 2013 and divided critics and audiences. For fans of James Franco, the movie is a gift. It tells the story of the matriarch of a family, on her deathbed and the commitment of her family to fulfill her last wish.
Future World
James Franco is back on the director's chair once again after the success of 'The Disaster Artist', now alongside his partner Bruce Thierry Cheung (responsible, for example, for the cinematography of 'Childhood Trauma' starring Franco). The '127 Hours' star is also the villain of the story, living a warlord of a post-apocalyptic world in the style of 'Mad Max'. The cast also features Milla Jovovich ('The Fifth Element') and Lucy Liu ('Charlie's Angels'). The story is far from inspiring and there is a very orthodox approach by Franco as a director, yet the feature still brings interesting chase and fight sequences in the ravaged land, following the teachings of director George Miller.
Zeroville
The story of 'Zeroville' is almost as bizarre as the movie itself. Directed and starring James Franco, the project was shot in 2014. However, after that, it entered a kind of limbo. There was no distributor to put the movies in theaters. It wasn't until 2019 that the project was revived by myCinema, which acquired the rights to 'Zeroville' and put it on screens at the end of the year. And when watching 'Zeroville', you can see the reasons why the movie disappeared. In telling the story of an actor arriving in Hollywood in the 1960s, Franco dives into this period of transition of the "country of cinema", in an environment that coexists with the emergence of independent films and the culture of drugs, sex and rock'n'roll. It's a strange movie, no doubt, that shows how Franco likes strange projects and how Seth Rogen, who is a co-star, is a friend for all hours. To delve into the strangeness of the project and question the limits of this achievement, which provokes the viewer to look at this Hollywood with different eyes.
Comedy

Kinds of Kindness
A triptych fable following a man without choice who tries to take control of his own life; a policeman who is alarmed that his wife who was missing-at-sea has returned and seems a different person; and a woman determined to find a specific someone with a special ability, who is destined to become a prodigious spiritual leader.
Love, Divided
From hate to love, there's only one step. Or, in this case, a very thin wall. Love, Divided (a remake of the French film Behind the Wall) is about a game designer (Fernando Guallar) who can only concentrate in absolute silence, which becomes a problem when a singer and pianist (Aitana) who is preparing for an important audition, moves into the adjacent apartment. It's a predictable romantic comedy, and the outcome can be seen from miles away. However, if you enjoy this kind of story, Patricia Font's remake is still charming.
