From the writer of "Kids" and the writer/director of "Gummo":




Harmony Korine is brilliantly off his rocker...I am SOOO salivating to see this movie.

Looks like what would happen if David Lynch checked into the hotel in Mystery Train and had to share a room with Hal Hartley.

Or am I way off base here?

no, i think you've pieced together at least half of the equation.

Anxiety said:

All it's missing is a cameo from Gena Rowlands.

I'm dying to know who his financial backers are... seriously

CalhounSq said:

well, werner herzog once said "gummo" was the best movie since "2001: a space odyssey".

pretty much

Anxiety said:

I saw Kids many a moon ago. I think I thought it was well done.

I'll set aside my feelings about Chloe Sevigny ().

IveRepliedLikeAnMFerToday said:

i'll just say that korine's writing in that movie is WORLDS different than the movies he's written and directed.

Anxiety said:

I had a feeling. Crispin Glover wouldn't be out of place in the flicks he's directed, would he?

IveRepliedLikeAnMFerToday said:

i think harmony and crispin would clash because they'd be too busy dueling it out for the title of Alpha Freak.

Anxiety said:

Holy shit!

omg is that diego luna?!

Christopher said:

I couldn't tell at first glance. I need to watch it again. I REALLY like him. I like Samantha Morton, too...I thought she was priceless playing the mute girl in "Sweet and Lowdown"...I need to see if I can access that movie here, it might be on video already if it already did last year's festival rounds in Europe...

wow. Kids and Gummo are two of my favorites, especially Gummo, to the point where I can't even watch it anymore, we wore it out so much in college. that one's going to be hard to top. but this looks to have potential.


(I've never seen Julien Donkey-Boy)

Loved "Kids", hated "Gummo" - hmmm...I wonder what this one will be like.

Ottensen said:

that is diego luna.

Raze said:

julien donkey-boy is really difficult to get through, though it's worth it because every scene with werner herzog as the insane evil father is pure comedy gold. otherwise, it's a pretty obtuse and creepy movie.

Anxiety said:

That sounds about right.

Anxiety said:

He looks beautiful. I can't wait!!!!!

Oh, ANXIETY, I still don't have the nerve to watch WASSUP ROCKERS. I just felt so dirty after watching KEN PARK.

WASSUP ROCKERS is just wrong. weird. i can't even explain the wrongness of that movie. it's not surface wrongness. it just gets under your skin and makes you feel skanky.

Anxiety said:

LMAO!

is this his first movie since GUMMO?

magnificentsynthesizer said:

no. he released one movie since, "julien donkey-boy".

after that, i guess he tried to make a movie called "love, harm" in which he wanted to film himself out in public goading people into beating him up. apparently, his mother stepped in and prevented him from making this movie.

Anxiety said:

now that would've been classic.

Errm, he must've been suffering from writers block to spawn an idea like that.

I'm scared to watch it.

JustErin said:

i don't think it will be too terribly disturbing.

this trailer looks like 'muppets take manhattan' compared to his other movies.

Anxiety said:

Yeah. I wondering if this is his "Hair Spray"....
