Description
Experimental filmmaker Harmony Korine burst onto the independent film scene with his screenplay for Larry Clark's Kids, but it's his own grotesque, alienating, and often shocking films that turned him into a cult figure. Unwatchables is joined by author, musician, and Korine superfan Marzi Margo to discuss two of the director’s most notorious provocations: his 1997 directorial debut Gummo, and 2009's audience-baiting Trash Humpers. We discuss Korine's background and artistic "ethos," how we should view his infatuation with the physically and mentally disabled, and whether Trash Humpers is the most unwatchable film we've ever featured on the podcast.
