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.
