I view filmmaking as a director's medium.

I am actually turned off when I look at an account and don’t see any selfies, because I want to know whom I’m dealing with. In our age of social networking, the selfie is the new way to look someone right in the eye and say, 'Hello, this is me.'

Japanese moe relationships socially dysfunctional men develop deep attachments to body pillows with women painted on them.

I guess it's ironic. I just did the Gucci cologne ad, and I was the cologne thief in junior high.

When I started writing after my career as an actor, I knew that that other life in the film industry would be pulled into my writing life and that people would see me not as an author but as an actor starting to write.

I used to care about how I looked. Now I don’t care as much. Maybe it’s because I’m so handsome.

My name is James Edward Franco. Ted is a nickname for Edward. That's what my parents called me. I also got 'Teddy Ruxpin' a lot. It just got to a point where I got sick of it, so when a teacher called out 'James Franco' my junior year of high school, I didn't correct her.
