Directing Herbert White
In Directing Herbert White James Franco writes about making a film of Frank Bidart's poem, Herbert White. Though the main character, Herbert White is a necrophiliac, and a killer, the poem - and the film - are an expression of life's isolation and loneliness. A poem became a film. In the rest of book, Franco uses poems to express what he feels about film: about acting; about the actors he admires - James Dean, Marlon Brando, Sean Penn; about the cult of celebrity and his struggles with it; about his teenage years in Palo Alto, and about mortality prompted by the death of his father. These preoccupations are handled with a simplicity and directness that recalls the work of Frank O'Hara.
The Rats
This horror story brings one of humanity's most potent fears to terrifying life, as the after effects of an atomic blast produce a race of super-rats who subjugate the common species and then turn on man.

In 1945, Hitler unleashed the Blood Death on Britain as his final act of vengeance. Those who died at once were the lucky ones. The really unfortunate took years.

Fighting Joe Hooker
“I have placed you at the head of the Army of the Potomac. Of course I have done this upon what appear to me to be sufficient reasons.
