I am such a huge fan of the works of Karmony Korine. He is best know for writing 'Kids' directed by Larry Clark, about an amoral, hiv-positive skateboarder sets out to 'deflower' as many virgins as possible while a local girl who contracted his disease tries to save his next target from her same fate. He also wrote 'Julien Donkey-Boy' about a dysfunctional family consisting of Julien a young man with untreated schizophrenia, his sister who is carrying his child, his brother and his domineering, german father. Without a doubt, i urge anyone to see either of these films. However this post is about his film 'Gummo'. I saw it for the first time three years ago and the impact it had on me is still as strong as ever.
