AVClub: Tomas Eldan, the Canadian novelist played by James Franco in Wim Wenders’ lame 3-D melodrama Every Thing Will Be Fine, always looks like he’s ready to zonk out for a nap. As a matter of fact, he’s introduced waking up from one, in an ice shack that doubles as his writing room, and he moves through every subsequent scene as though he were searching for a light switch on the way to the bathroom. Is it too perfect that when the movie finally perks up, which is in its last 20 or so minutes, it’s in a scene where Tomas drinks a cup of coffee? Or that its muffled climax has him discovering that an intruder has pissed all over his bed? Every Thing Will Be Fine, ostensibly about a writer who realizes his dreams on the back of someone else’s nightmare, resembles nothing more than the story of one man’s decade-long quest to get some quality zzzzs. It probably couldn’t ask for a more fitting star than Franco, who has eyes like the headlamps of a beat-up old Corvette Stingray, stuck halfway between open and closed.
Everything Will Be Fine Season 1 is a Mexican series on Netflix. It is about the a set of parents who are separated but still live together because of their kid.
THR:
Charlotte Gainsbourg and Robert Naylor are also co-starring in the Wim Wenders drama, now shooting in Montreal.
Rachel McAdams has joined the cast of Wim Wenders’ drama Every Thing Will Be Fine.
James Franco is starring in the film as a man responsible for the death of a young boy who channels his guilt into a successful writing career. As he gets more famous, however, he represses and rejects the emotional connection he has to the boy's brother and mother in the years after the accident.
THR:
James Franco has signed to star in director Wim Wenders’ 3D project Everything Will Be Fine.
Franco will play a writer who accidentally causes the death of a child in the story that follows him over the next 12 years as he looks for the footprints of the accident on his life, as well as on the life of the child’s mother.
I don't like everything he picks to be in but some of the movies he makes are really good.
