"Constructing this film through random scenes, director Harmony Korine abruptly jettisoned any sort of narrative plot, so here we go: Solomon and Tummler are two bored teenage boys who live in Xenia, Ohio. A few years ago, a tornado swept through it, destroying more than half the town and killing the same amount, including Solomon's father. The film, from there, chronicles the anti-social adventures these two boys have. These include sniffing glue, killing cats, having sex, riding dirtbikes, listening to black metal, and meeting a cavalcade of quirky, bizzare, and scary people. These include a man who pimps his mentally ill wife to our anti-heroes, three sisters who play with their cat and practice becoming strippers, a gay black Jewish midget and his boyfriend, a 12-year-old gay transvestite who is also a cat killer, Solomon's mother, two foul-mouthed six-year olds, and most importantly, a nymphlike skateboarder who walks around town wearing pink rabbit ears."
haha this film looks silly

Well, I think it's a great film. It's much better than it sounds.

it is a very good movie - quite an experience just to watch it. you can't go by that description and i don't think it's even a fair synopsis. yeah, those things are in the film, but the film transcends a bunch of scenes strewn together.

I like it when the kids mom puts on the tap shoes and tries to tap dance. (after the kid lifts weights using the taped up silverware)

i think the film definitely reflects a specific emotional state. it's pretty grim.

i don't think his films deal with traditional plot, though...if you mean a leads to b leads to c. the viewer is responsible for making a lot of connections between people and events in his films.
