We’ve been hearing about James Franco‘s naked basketball movie since 1998 — 1998! — that he directed while securing his MFA at NYU. And now comes a NSFW clip that’s about as teasing as a James Franco wink and smile. It’s called The Feast of Stephen, and apparently it’s winning some international acclaim?
“The film basically tracks one young manâs daydream from a New York basketball court to a sexualized beating in Central Park,” relays Movieline, based on WWII veteran and poet Anthony Hecht’s work.
Below, from a 2008 interview with Newsweek, Franco discusses his, uh, method:
Dirty Ole Man
Um, that clip was nightmarish yet visually sexy.
David Ehrenstein
He’s The World’s Gayest Heterosexual!
Joey
Yeah, or maybe he’s just gay, David.

“Um, that clip was nightmarish yet visually sexy.”
Response: I agree with D.O.M (are you Loco Mama on YouTube?) and now I have to have a shower because I feel gross!
Seriously, James Franco is Hot and nothing really suggests it is his penis, I really wish Franco plays The Joker in the next Batman movie (as only he has the Acting Chops to honor Heath Ledger if you haven’t seen Milk yet!)
sal(the original)
he’s soooo cool!!!!

@dontblamemeivotedforhillary: you mean Daniel Day Lewis. He would make a much better joker replacement and he has the same facial features as heath. And his acting ability is impecable. just ask his oscars
