James Franco was worried about Aron Ralston's Reaction

James Franco played the role of Aron Ralston in the movie by Danny Boyle of the real-life story of how Ralston was forced to cut off his own arm to free himself when he was trapped by a boulder in the Utah desert.

Franco said to UK newspaper Daily Record: 'The first time I watched it with an audience, I sat behind Aron. He was with his wife and throughout the movie he kept leaning over and whispering to her.

'I thought: 'Oh God, I guess he hates it.' Then, when the movie was over, I went up to him and asked: 'Come on, man, tell me what you think? Was it OK?'

'He said that from a quarter of the way through until the end, he'd been crying the whole time. I guess he was just telling his wife about the real experience, getting her support.'
