Viewing Notes
I’m a fan of Larry Clark’s films, but they certainly make you uncomfortable. It’s hard not to see just how he always has young kids in near undress in his films. However, I’m not convinced its his libidio more than it is just reality.
Anyways, liked Rockers a lot because it focused on some Latino kids who instead of falling into the typical South Side Los Angeles gang attitudes was going around blasting punk rock and skateboarding.
Not sure what to really make of it as a whole, as it’s a bit disconnected but all in all I think he did a good job.
