We’re waiting for the mom to take her bandages off. Semaj: Yeah, it does seem like “Eyes Without a Face.” Isolated and creepy. James: “ Goodnight Mommy” is mostly about these cute twin boys who wander around this country house while their mother recovers from surgery with bandages on her face, like the daughter in “Eyes Without Face.” James is me, and Semaj is the other side of me. What they’re interested in talking about is all the ways the films inspire them, and make them think. So, assume that James (and Semaj) love all these films.
As someone in the industry it could be detrimental to James’s career if he were to review his peers, because unlike the book industry - where writers review other writer’s books - the film industry is highly collaborative, and a bad review of a peer could create problems. James loves going to the movies and talking about them, but a one-sided take on a movie, in print, might be misconstrued as a review. Rather than a conventional review, it is a place where James and Semaj can muse about ideas that the films provoke. This is a column where James Franco talks to his reverse self, Semaj, about new films.

Valentine’s Day Massacre” (1967)Īvailable January 9: Indiewire Pick: “Goodnight Mommy” (2015) “The Spongebob Movie: Sponge Out of Water” (2015) This film’s gruesome violence and Wild West setting along with a lean towards cult film aesthetics have led people to call it a “horror western,” a rare and unique blend of genres that makes “Bone Tomahawk” stand out from the crowd. While most people will see Kurt Russell and his impressive facial hair in Quentin Tarantino’s “The Hateful Eight” later this year, he has an equally impressive leading role in “Bone Tomahawk” as a sheriff tasked with tracking down a band of violent, deadly Native Americans when they kidnap the town doctor. “Thundercats” Season One Indiewire Pick: “Bone Tomahawk” (2015) “Regular Show” Complete Season 6 (Cartoon Network)
