Twaalfhoven ’10 will roast Franco at New College Theatre Friday evening before presenting the actor with the traditional “Pudding Pot.” Friedman said she expected the roast to be “younger, maybe raunchier” than last year’s, when the group honored Christopher Walken. “He’s a lot closer to our age than Christopher Walken was,” she said.
