Today a friend of mine stepped out of the living room for ten minutes and left her four-year-old sister in there. When she got back, her sister had gotten naked, thrown shit (actual human shit, not shit as in "stuff") all over the room, and possibly eaten some of it. The majority of her afternoon was spent cleaning and disinfecting the room.
Hey, Harmony Korine is a very accomplished filmmaker.
Yeah, this. Kids was really important in the history of the HIV dialog in cinema. Trash Humpers might be polarizing, but Korine's reasons for making it are actually really fascinating. Actually, now that I think about it, pretty much all of Korine's films are really polarizing. However, I wouldn't call any of them bad, per se, even the ones I find a bit oppressive in their edginess and material (Kids, Ken Park). Dealing with stuff like that is just part of enjoying cinema, though.
I'm rather disappointed that Harmony Korine never completed work on Fight Harm, where he would provoke fights with strangers and not stop until he was at the edge of death or had won. The idea was to make "a cross between a Buster Keaton vehicle and a snuff film," but the sixth fight put him in the hospital, and he abandoned the film. Oh yeah, and David Blaine was the cameraman.
Oh wow, I'm watching this Brows Held High review of Trash Humpers. It's painfully evident that this guy didn't get it. The reason the Auto Tracking message was left in is because Korine was using the film more as an exploration of the medium of videotape more than anything else.

Never mind.
Little kids, man. Fuck.
EDIT: I feel like I might have the age wrong, and she might be 2. Still iffy, but better than being a four-year-old shit-slinger.
Don't know what that is?
