Those who still haven’t caught a glimpse of James Franco would be well advised to head to the Columbia University Film Festival beginning tonight at 5:30. The festival, which will screen short films from grad students at the School of Arts Film Program, runs through May 7 at the IFC Center on 6th and West 3rd. Each year, films featured in the festival go on to Cannes, Tribeca and Sundance. Brave the heat and the subway ride and see films with titles like “The Art of Suicide” and “Cigarette Candy.”
