Harmony Korine is the one-man awkward squad of indie cinema, and his new film Trash Humpers, a tale of delinquent seniors, looks to be his most off-putting yet On stage during a Q&A after the London premiere of his new film Trash Humpers, it's as if Harmony Korine has become a character in one of his movies: a bad-taste bar mitzvah comedian, perhaps. Someone in the audience asks how he cast the...
For his third feature Passenger Side, director Matt Bissonnette decided to go back to basics and the freedom that comes from shooting a film on a low budget, with a skeleton crew.
