Synopsis
Zeroville (2019) is a comedy-tinged drama directed by James Franco that you can watch online on iFILM. The year is 1969, and a former architecture student steps into Hollywood with two faces tattooed on his shaved scalp: Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift.
His name is Vikar, and for him movies are something close to a faith. He drifts through a Los Angeles caught between eras — the old studios cracking apart, a wave of independent directors crashing in, sex and drugs and punk rock everywhere in between. Along the way he tangles with a rising actress (Megan Fox), plus editors, gurus and hustlers of the new film business, with Seth Rogen, Jacki Weaver and Dave Franco filling out the cast.
Adapted from Steve Erickson's novel, the film has Franco both behind the camera and playing its central oddball. It sat on the shelf for years before surfacing as a strange love letter to old Hollywood — an acquired taste, but cinephiles will find something to pick apart in every frame.
