Written by a 19-year-old Harmony Korine, the film presents the day-to-day lives of an ethnically diverse group of New York teenagers. Chloƫ Sevigny and Rosario Dawson made their debuts in this. The movie (not surprisingly) was produced at the beginning by Gus Van Sant. Controversial at its time, it features alcohol, drug use and sexually explicit scenes of sometimes very young kids. Considering the experimental and the incipient nature of the production, it turned out pretty decent.
impressions of movies that left some kind of a mark, my perspectives have a very personal character. hope others can also enjoy my peculiar descriptions.
