This movie was great, love the director and writer. They have many other movies too . Nostalgic at its best, not suitable for kids

Classic had to have it for my collection

Hopefully if you're buying this you already know it's about to get weird.

Must watch

Very weird movie

Bought this as a gift for the wife. Immediately she found it to not be just nostalgic but also very powerful. Lovely movie over all we had some great laughs and good reflecting moments. They don’t make em how they use to. Ohio hood classic.

I watched this movie while eating a big bowl of beef ravioli one afternoon about 5 years ago. I think it was a Tuesday. All my silverware was dirty and I didn't feel like washing myself a fork so I used a pair of unused chopsticks leftover from takeout chinese food a couple nights before. I don't know if any of you have used chopsticks to eat beef ravioli before, but it is a bit of a challenge. Maybe some of you have eaten beef ravioli with chopsticks and found it to be easy, but I did not. Honestly, I'd give my chopstick skills 3 out of 10 stars, just so you all have a frame of reference in understanding the difficulty I suffered. Anyway, the beef ravioli was cold in the center because I hadn't cooked it as long as I should have. My wife normally cooks my beef ravioli, but I'm pretty sure she was getting her nails done that afternoon and so I had to cook it myself. We didn't have any napkins in the house so I used toilet paper to wipe my face while I ate. Halfway through the movie my mom called and I answered and talked to her for the entire length of the last half of the movie and we had a pretty good conversation about my uncle Randy and the hotdog place he'd just opened on 6th street, next to the laundry mat.

I actually ordered this because the copy I'd had for years up and disappeared. Obviously, I enjoy it enough to have wanted it replaced.It is a harrowing look into the life of mainly 2 young men who kill cats for money and sell them. They find out that they have some competition from another local boy whom they confront. Basically the boys are a focal point of the movie. Their adventures of paint huffing, riding bikes around town and breaking & entering are all documented. There are also many other characters and short stories strewn about. Even a scene with the writer/director Harmony Korine, himself, actually drunk and telling stories of his childhood with his mother. Professional skater & legend Mark "The Gonz" Gonzalez has a cameo hanging out with a bunch of dudes and some chick's who partake in arm wrestling and beating up a chair.Some parts aren't for the faint of heart. There are scenes that may even disgust some viewers, like spaghetti eating in dirty bathwater. If it is viewed as a spectacle and a novelty film, none of it will bother you but rather entertain you, maybe even make you smile with its dark humour and occasional heart warming commentary about beauty and life or fragility thereof.I first saw this when I was about 16 (almost a decade and half later now) and I've had a soft spot for it since.
