Need a little sunshine to brighten up your gloomy, gray Monday? Head over to the Brooklyn Farmacy (on Henry Street in Carroll Gardens) and get that sunshine in the form of Mr. James Franco. He's there filming scenes for his upcoming film, Maladies—you can see more photos here. If you have no problems getting your celeb stalk on, you are probably crazy enough that Franco's turn-ons won't turn you off—the actor recently told James Lipton, "Sometimes rabbits, like, turn me on. I don't know why."
