As I Lay Dying
Taking the reins as writer/director/co-star, James Franco brings William Faulkner's acclaimed, multi-layered novel to life in this emotional drama. When the matriarch of a rural 1930s Mississippi family dies, her husband and grown children set out to ferry her remains to the town where she wants to be buried. Their journey, however, is met by a variety of hazards and long-simmering resentments between the siblings. Tim Blake Nelson, Danny McBride, Logan Marshall-Green co-star.
