Larry Clark Movies (i.e. Bully, Kids...)

I don't know how else to put it to you except I think bully is shitty and kids is overrated.

those margera boys, i dont know who said in another thread but they did, actually were entertaining with leo fitzpatrick before kids if im correct. i might not be. he was in cky2k with bam and bran.

Really? Maybe I'm getting confused with Justin Pierce...that was his debut...

what was justin pierces debut?

and another thing chloe is fuckin ugly white trash,sorry but she looks fucking disgusting and i hated seeing her as the "INDIE IT GIRL" what a fuckin label huh? i would write back home
mom about that one

Kids. They picked him off the street while he was skating.

Chloe Sevigny was really pretty in Kids.. Rosario Dawson (is that her name?) - in Kids also- she looks a lot better in the 25th Hour.

yeah i dont think your confused i sure wouldnt consider a skating film with a bunch of fucked up kids having fun rolling around in trashcans a debut, but i think thats where leo fitzpatrick went big was kids.

Kids was pretty amazing. When it ended I felt like vomiting, slapping all those kids, and watching a fucking comedy. It was such a harsh ending, but I secretly loved it.

k who was in Kids and cKy2?

Bully waqs pretty umm i dont know, interesting but boring too

as for Kids, well it was pretty good. nothin special

Leo Fitzpatrick was in both

yeah feebles right i think it even has a press interview with fitzpatrick in cky2k

Bully was just gut-wrenchingly bad.

what part was Leo in cKy2?

check out imdb.com it says he played himself

thats fucking crazy, i cant remember any part he was in tho

he was in the part where they are fuckin around in the snow

lol that helps!! like when they were in the shopping carts gettin whats his face to push em with the car?

no no when they are at that hotel and bams driving into a snow bank with a van with somebody on top, leo is the guy with a scarf and a black shirt. thats the scene perfectly and if you can remember it just barely shows it but it show leo talking to mtv or something just a little clip in cky2k, he must be out of philly or something. or they just recognized him from kids and was like dude come out and fuck around with u s i dont know

do you remmeber what part its at? (beigning middle end? or what stunt it preceeds or follows?)

towards the beginning if you want to look for it its in the part in the snow so theres not many in the snow, if you watch it and with my definition above you should be able to point him out.

Larry's movies remind me of Bret Easton Ellis, but with emphasis on the 'shock' and absolutely no humour.

I should like Larry's crap, I feel, but I don't. I watch them and sort of bore myself to tears. The characters aren't quirky or interesting, they're just like the most boring, hideously stereotypical people you could ever meet, doing nothing very interesting. Even the most annoying and two-dimensional people I've met in real life have little quirks that make them at least vaguely memorable. Plus, he seems incapable of ever writing even a single person into his movies who has an IQ bigger than their shoe size.

Did he do Ken Park? Which was subsequently banned in Australia and the premiere raided?

yeah i finally saw Leo. now what the hell is the connection to Bam

k Leo was in 7-Teen Sips, made by Steve Berra who's in close ties with Bam cause of the skating

yeah he was in that movie by steve berra where there all pointing a gun at eachother at the end of the clip, thats all i saw i dont know if thats 7 teen sips, but who knows they are all friends, i really dont know what i wa trying to get at

I think Gummo is better then Kids and Bully. (Kids was written by the director/writer of Gummo, and I think Bully was written by him too)

none of them have any real importance, i hated bully and gummo's hilarious and kids was just shocking to so many people cuz it was thrown out into the mainstream media and and it was in the early nineties but i would have to say kids and gummo are a tie.

havnt seen gummo, heard there was cat killin in it or something so i dont wanna see it. but between kids and bully, kids wins by long shot

To me, between Kids and Gummo, Gummo fucking killed Kids.

how bad are the cat scenes etc. i really wanna see this flick but im a huge pro animal rights kinda guy

can anyone answer?

They are bad, but the movie is wonderful. I love cats also, in fact I use to foster cats, and I still love this movie.

You're too young to be watching such films.

adversary, shut it

like are they real? or is it obvious its fake. i odnt know, ive grown up around cats all my life (recently lost 2 as well) so im very hesitant. if its just one quick scene where ya know its all sound effects no graphic portrayal, than i can sit through it. but if its focussing on the cat as its dying i really dont wanna watch it

They don't show them dying, but dead, and they look very real, they are probebly 1 minute scenes each.

ooook. so theres no schreeching and brutal images. the cats are just already dead and you presume the kids kill them

No, in one scene, the kids are wipping a dead cat that they tied to a tree, and it's eyes are hanging out. It's disgusting, but it adds a lot to the experiece of the movie.

By the way, there are only like three or four scenes with dead cats in them.

but the cat isnt alive or anything when theyre whipping it against a tree? like does it start off as its already dead and theyre just whipping it still

It's already dead, and to the looks of it, it's been either dead for a awhile or they they have been wipping it for some time. The only scene with a live cat being hurt is a scene where it shows one of the kids putting a cat in a barrel full of water, it just closes up on the water as show a blurry image of a cat underwater and meowing.

awww poor kitty, stupid hill billys!!!!!!!!

[B]something tells me knx will unflinchingly watch a film like the boondock saints (people gettin blasted), but if a cat gets harmed, it's cry time. [/B][/QUOTE]

Sorry. The kid annoys the shit out of me.

yeah he usta me too, a lot of people do. just learn to ignore them or osmething. believe me its hard but it saves a lotta stress

Adversary you're not alone. That's where I'll end. Nothing more.

just saw Gummo, it was fucked up beyond recognition man. it was just real dumb, it had a good story, but half way thru it decided to be a documentary and just screwed the story over

You idiot, there was no story. There was no plot. There was no protaginist. There was no antaginist. There was no narative, there was just film.

Sorry, Knox, you are not an idiot. That was out of hand thinking.

I usually adore fucked-up cinema but Clark doesn't do it for me. Another Day in Paradise was decent. Bully, I liked the way it ended for some reason but other than that it was tedious crap. And as for KIDS well..... I can't find anymore words to describe it other than "SUCKS."

Oh yeah, I have not yet to see Ken Park or his remake of "TEENAGE CAVEMAN"--- So I don't know maybe "TEENAGE CAVEMAN" might be the movie for me.
