James Franco was so incredibly good in 127 Hours. He was my favorite of the nominees that year. A shame he hasn't lived up to that (maybe his disastrous hosting of the Oscars, saved only by The Princess of Modern Cinema Anne Hathaway, was the cause of it idk).
Ultraviolence continues to chart, inheriting the longevity of Born to Die (which had actually sold much less at this stage despite a more commercial sound and relatively more promotion).
