Francophile Follow-up

James Franco is sad because my designs weren't used as props in his new film. (See my March 2010 post.) It's OK James. It was a fun year anticipating whether or not they'd make it into your movie 127 Hours. I suppose there were other scenes that were probably more important to the story. Just know I'm still available to design for your next movie, and I'll still be rooting for you at the Oscars.

Francophile

My brochures may become props in the next Danny Boyle (Trainspotting, Slumdog Millionaire) movie.

We've been asked to send collateral from University Hospital for use in the upcoming film 127 Hours starring James Franco as Aron Ralston. Ralston is the mountaineer who got stuck in Moab, Utah in 2003. Pinned by a boulder, he amputated his own arm with a knife to survive. Boyle will surely bring a lot of grit to what is already a brutish true tale.

Is it too much to dream that Franco will pick up my design work with his remaining arm? Or perhaps become a hand model for everything in my portfolio?
