Gummo (1997)


A drama by Harmony Korine.
A young man and a boy collect dead cats to sell to a grocer in return for money and glue to sniff. The other residents of this town have similarly meaningless lives.
This is one of my favorite independent films. The style is beyond belief to the point where plot and characters become a non-issue. There is a "rabbit" character who is assaulted by some young "cowboys", but later ends up making out with "the lesbians" in their pool in the rain. See what I mean about cool style? The soundtrack features extremely poorly performed music alongside some brutal metal. Burzum is even included at some points! If you like films that I like, you will like this as much as I do. I'm rating it best.
