Best Actor Oscar nominee
James Franco (127 Hours in 2011) writes, directs and stars in the Well Go USA
DVD and Blu-ray release of his film adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s novel, Child
of God. The street date is Oct.
28.
It’s interesting that
Franco choose not to play the central character of McCarthy’s anti-societal
tale, instead Franco recruited Scott Haze (he had a small role in Franco’s As I
Lay Dying) to portray the human being-to-cave dwelling protagonist of
the piece. It is the role that could
very ignite his career!
It’s the 1960s, rural
Tennessee and Haze has had a break with reality. Everything that once connected him to
society has been stripped away and he has arrived at a mental state that is
every bit a tale of horror (and more) that you would expect from any lurid
backwood’s tale of depravity. This one
is even tough for genre fans to absorb … not for the squimish!
