'Interview' with James Franco: NYU professor got fired for giving you a D?

- I don't think James Franco deserves those negative comments, and I think he tried his very best with school. There are 2 things that I can't understand:
1. How could NYU fire a professor simply because he gave one student poor grade?
2. People always talk about the picture that he's sleeping 'in class', but never talk about the pictures that he's reading and studying on movie sets.
I edited a short film about James Franco one month ago, so I watched most of his interviews and saved them on my computer. I quoted these interviews to let you judge yourself.
And this is a video response for the following video, whose uploader hasn't approved me to post it as a response so far.
James Franco's NYU professor fired for giving actor a bad grade?
• James Franco's New Yor...
everytime i hear him speaking about life i have to get up and do something hes so inspiring
Billy, fuck off
It must be so exhausting to be him, jeez fly out to be on a show and fly back to go to class right after? I'm too exhausted to go to the mall after school and that's like 15 minutes away..
Ur totally right!! ;)
He was not going to class, lol.
No, no, no. His professor got fired for giving him _the_ D. Understandable, every man is gay for James.
hahahhaha! Thank you so much for that comment, and oddly I misread the title as "THE D" the first time around and not "A D" lol!
Thrilla Whale lol
Thrilla Whale why do we celebrate people who have no skills except for immitating somebody else. Children do these things and we put them in timeout...
Inspiration. I gotta get my shit together.
..."...hate us cuz they ain't us", quote, James Franco. ;)
Such a down to earth guy. Feel like every actor should aspire to be him. He's not just some self loathing bimbo. He values education and always stays true to his message and projects. Such a cooll dude.

james has an amazing smile
Such a unique guy. Handsome, nice, talented, successful and intelligent.
I skipped like my last year of school entirely and graduated with honors so why is everyone on james' case... half the student population in uni skips school for no reason, james did it for work so shut up.
He's not only a good actor but smart that's to be admired
Reasons why I look up to him... These are just some of the reasons.
dude I got so much respect for this guy
Love him and I love that he takes schooling so seriously, good role model for others :) And I highly doubt the teacher got fired just for giving him a D, if the teacher did get fired then it was either for different reasons or there was way more to the story. And he wasn't angry about it, he understood why he got it, it couldn't be helped.
ty for explaining that rockstar
he is great......god bless to go to school and now he teaches.......humble
he has the best smile, the sort of smile that could make someone forgive him after he did them wrong
i don't think he's an incredible actor but i think he has incredible work ethic, will power and dedication. he always wants to be better at everything
Have you seen 127 Hours? He's also great in 11.22.63 on Hulu.
he just won a golden globe for the disaster artist what are you talking about...
@@dalusgembalus that comment was 4 years ago though 🤷
He seems like a really busy guy with a lot happening in different areas. I don't blame him for falling asleep! He's not the first person on earth, it's sad he was caught out & had to explain himself.
His smile always pleases me!!!
James is the best. So humble
he's so cute with the kids:)
He's an incredible human being. Very, Very inspirational. IMO, he should have got that Oscar for 127 hours he has little to nothing to work with and yet he made an incredible movie. He's too good for Hollywood!!
I'm so impressed by him, like he just blew me away. so dedicated, it's insane.
James Franco is Intelligent. Highly Educated and handsome man
Yale, NYU, Columbia...what university does James Franco not go to?!
i like this Guy - theres nothing wrong with a education - Good for you
Thank you. As an NYU alum, I'm ashamed of the professors who did give him special treatment. And it makes no sense. Famous people are associated with NYU, so it shouldn't even be some big deal.
Thanks for making this video compilation! I love him he's great. I'm tired of people ragging on him.
If "you went to school with him" like I did then you'd realize it's bullshit. He never went to class, he had someone hired to finish his work and do his art. I saw him once and it was on the street. He showed up for the first day of class and that was it. The teacher passed him because he was ordered to. Franco wasn't even there at graduation.
you obviously havent seen the difficulties of the third world, gives a whole new meaning to "hard work". working 16 hours a day, standing, 7 days a week, trying to provide for a large family. Struggling to feed your family, no access to health care or human rights, possibly being oppressed by your own government, having numerous family members die of diseases...
but yea Im pretty sure they would agree that James Franco works way harder than they do...
The reality is that you cannot pursue several graduate degrees at once and have a full time job without something suffering. Who cares if he skips class? All of you who praise him for doing all this stuff honestly don't know what's involved in it.
All of the Franco brothers are absolute perfection...they inspire me so much...such great people!
he said going into his bedroom to sleep was "admitting failure" so he would only sleep when he physically couldn't stay awake anymore and passed out on his couch. He gave his brother his bedroom because of that reason lol
This is such a fantastic tribute.
That interviewer at the end was super rude and toxic. I don't understand this. Why? James is not a bad person.
Hmmm... I took the title the wrong way
I know right?! I was a majoring in dance and biology plus being involved in rehearsals at night that would commonly go past 10. I tended to nod off in those 8 am classes or simply not go because I was too tired lol
James smile can literally light up a dark room. He's so beautiful. I love him
stay in school kids!
He must be an amazing actor to go from this to Spring Breakers
he can be my sugardaddy
anne delRey lol okay.
The del rey explains it all
If I was James Franco? I wouldn't go to acting classes at all.
He's so great and insperational.
I think he could make millions on his looks alone! He is so attractive
I like him more now, how much he values education.
he seems like such a sweetheart.
He is so incredible. I love him.
I really respect this kids work ethic.
Well of course you get a 'D' if you don't show up for classes!
He inspires me
127 hours is a frickin great movie! Love him
the guy at 2:03 looks so happy to be around James Franco
such an inspiration
Dedicated. Responsible. Amazing. Gifted. Goofy. Adorable. I have nothing more to say other than marry me.
Totally agree the accusation is bullshit and a really sad pathetic ploy to dishonor someone (james) who doesnt deserve that in order for that professor to save face. It actully takes a lot to fire a professional like that and I'm sure it has nothing to do with James Franco. I'm definately a fan of his, it's so hard to find inspiring intelligent people these days who have worthwhile things to say.
I agree with you happyseed37. I think James is one of the very few young actors who has successfully juggled a career in acting with studying for his degree. He got a D for acting of all things, but just look at 127 hours and his awesome acting. If I were his professor, I would have taken that into account. Hope James continues his excellent acting and one day grab the Oscar that he deserves. Thanks for a great video.
its alot easier if you already have something to fall back on. He's already successful as a movie star. Of course it takes hard work to study but it makes it alot easier when the pressure is taken off. If he fails, he's already got a career. Big deal. The rest of us live in the real world. Fail school. No good job. Poor.
I often fell asleep in English class, mainly during grammar
I think the professor must have gotten fired because of the publicity the grade brought to the school. I'm sure they didn't want to be affiliated with that sort of publicity, especially in the filmmaking department. It's like okay he gave him a D, whatever consequences come from that in the media -- it must have brought some discomfort to the board there.
very very handsome, smart. my favorite actor
he is merely trying to motivate people to not be lazy and not have excuses while you are here badgering a man who has probably accomplished tenfold of what you have. Obviously you are trying to be seek attention, and no one said James was the hardest working individual in the work.
how the hell does he manage all that omg he's so smart
You could hate him because one of his semester finals at RISD (a prestigious design school)'s grad program was "invisible art". Yes, this is actually true. He submitted nothing, but this nothing had dimensions and prices.
If you don't Understand Plato don't try the mold
Well above anything, amongst those in "Hollywood" Franco sets a great example..
i don't care. i love james
I thought hurricane season was over.
handsome AND smart!
How can anyone honestly hate him..?
The fuck?
He's such a unique person. I have such a crushhh.
omg i love him so much :) my goal: to be a great actor like he is today. i really really want to do what he does
And strangely enough, your grammar is perfect (save that forgotten period at the end of your sentence) compared to most people on the web
James is by far one of the hardest working individuals in the world. He was tackling 7 movies and 3 degrees at ivy league schools averaging a GPA of 4.3
What's your excuse?
Like most rap and hip hop it's an imitation of an original.
Different schools, and different countries use different systems. Yes you can get higher than a 4.0
Danial discario has changed
That pic of him sleeping in class wasnt even in a class he is in. He was sitting in on a art talk.
soo..because he has money he isn't working hard?..the person CLEARLY stated he is ONE of the hardest working individuals and simply because he's rich and not in oppression etc does not mean he isn't. If you're working hard to achieve your goals under difficult circumstances then you too just may be one of the hardest working persons in the world. Why don't you try juggling movies, interviews, constant press and other personal problems i'm sure he has since he's human and still do good at school!
Not to mention that he may have even enrolled for the Ph.D at Yale before he even finished the other programs he started, according to nymag--dot--com/movies/profiles/67284/index1--dot--html three years ago which states '' This fall, at 32, before he’s even done with all of these, he’ll be starting at Yale, for a Ph.D. in English, and also at the Rhode Island School of Design. ''
So pretty much he's like Daniel the character he played when he was on freaks and geeks.
he has so much intensity
Having the policy that students learn best and more by listening to certain classes and lectures forced on them is really not the way to create new original and creative thinking individuals who can think for themselves and go beyond the academic skills of whoever they have already read themselves. Its basically the universities telling you how to think and how to look at the academic field you're in. Thats really not the way to make new knowledge or make new academical students able to create new and to reach beyond what have already been laid out for them.
who hasn't slept in class right?
I dont want attention, just contesting a very bold statement of someone being "one of the hardest working individuals in the world". the fact that you think anyone would oppose an opinion just to seek attention is pretty messed up tbh.
holy shit that kid on the right is nervous
I was here for to check if there is any "D"jokes,got my answer,bye
he is a mix of.james dean and,andy warhall.coolest guy
The Prayer took the Funeral soundtrack
He is amazing!
damn. he's a great actor, goes to school and gets high like everyday... this dude is god xD
He's attractive. Then he speaks!
and he becomes even more attractive :)
+ninashninash ninashninash You're stupid.
Exactly man, i don't think he makes any sense at all..
He's gorgeous and smart, i love it.
oh, my god, HE IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOO CHARMING. I LOVE HIM. He´s the boy of my dreams
This is odd to me .. Ive been a university student for 8 years and despite the fact that our college educations and university programmes take 5 or 6 years and not the 4 years I know a lot of American exchange students Ive met have, it is so odd how you are obliged to participate in courses by being present. Esp considering how universities were invented as a offer for people studying certain academic disciplines and who would want to hear lectures from the best people in whatever they studied. Nowadays, you're registered for the classes and courses and obliged to attend and sit there and listen without being academically competent to chose which knowledge and people you'd want to listen to in addition to your own reading.
Gosh he's a better student than I am
It's nice to have an American auteur in this generation...I think every artistic instinct he has is probably on pulse
He always has a book in his hand.
i would donate a kidney just to kiss him for 3 seconds
adorable
Thank you. I knew it sounded familiar.... The Prayer - Kid Cudi
James can do no wrong :)
