Performance of the Day

Actor: JAMES FRANCO

Film: "Pineapple Express"

Character: Saul

Year: 2008

James Franco has always seem like a James Dean/Marlon Brando wannabe to me. He mumbles his words, barely shows much expression, and has those rugged good looks. But, he surprised me with his hilarious turn as 'Saul' in 2008's "Pineapple Express". If you haven't caught his portrayal of a pot-smoking, dealer with a heart of gold, do so immediately.
