José Angel Santana, a theater professor at New York University, tells The New York Post that he got fired for giving James Franco a ‘D’ in a class called “Directing the Actor II.” Mr. Santana is now suing the university, saying that Mr. Franco missed 12 of the 14 classes.
“In my opinion, they’ve turned the NYU graduate film degree into swag for James Franco’s purposes, a possession, something you can buy,” Santana told the Post.
