JAMES Franco is making no apologies to those offended by his graphic gay sex scene in new movie The Broken Tower.
The 127 Hours star plays American poet Hart Crane in the film which he also wrote, directed and produced.
But many critics have savaged the movie including Franco’s most shocking scene to date
“I thought it was important to put that kind of in-your-face attitude across,” says the actor of a moment when he is scene performing a sex act on another male character.
“One way of doing that was some explicit sex scenes. I knew those scenes, like the b*** j** scene, would be the thing that the critics would use — just because it’s easy to get readers that way. But I feel like, based on some of the other responses, that it did achieve its effect.
“Some people have said, ‘I don’t wanna see a movie about a b*** j**!’ It’s not a movie about a b*** j**!”
