Really really dark. I don't think that is really pornography, but I don't think this is really a work of Art. After all there was no effort to make it artistic: it is rather the lack of work (ie just shooting the scenes without making any intervention or commentary) that makes the crudeness of the images more intense and in a certain extent the beauty and the ugliness of it.

hmm....I think Larry Clarks movies are starting to become a bit...predictable now. Thye all seem to revolve around kids having sex or doing horrible acts.
It worked in Kids because it hadn't really been done before in such a realistic manner, but now....after bully, it's getting redundant. His movies are now officially didactic because he keeps belting us over and over with the same message. He needs to try something new.
But, I haven't seen Ken Park yet, I'd like too if I could find it anywhere.

Bumping the old thread.
I can't really say much about his film except that it was so-so. Yeah, there are unsimulated sex scenes in the film. Which seem more like perversions rather than beautiful nudity. They weren't bad is just that they felt more like shock value rather than story telling.
Unlike his previous work, Clark makes something different, this time is not just the kids doing disturbing actions...this time the care takers and parents act practically the same. So this one is more of a dysfunctional family film than just kids gone wrong. An okay film...Clark needs to give us a more emotional and sensible Coming of age film in the future. Very glad to see an american actress doing a gutsy scene with a teen boy.
