James Franco may as well be in Oz as a Floridian drug dealer who collects teen girls and wields giant guns when he’s not playing Britney Spears songs on his white baby grand piano. Sound bizarre? This movie is a whole lot of drunken craziness, but also has its moments of clarity and maybe even moments of genius. http://www.sheknows.com/entertainment/articles/988379/spring-breakers-movie-review Entertainment Movies & Reviews Shanee Edwards Tue, 12 Mar 2013 10:30:00 -0700 http://www.sheknows.com/parenting/articles/987971/create-lasting-memories-on-a-family-spring-break-vacation It's spring break time and many families are heading out of town on vacation.
