Harmony Korine is an awesome director. Probably those who think that cinematography should tell us simple stories about ordinary people won't like him. Cause Korine's movies are shocking and obscure for most moviegoers. His imagination usually runs to the darker and dingier corners of youth cult. And his new Spring Breakers movie is no exception.
First of all it's about youth and it's for youth actually. I think it's also was the reason to invite popular teenage star Selena Gomez (by the way out of four girls Selena Gomez was shown much less than the rest).
So... here is a summary of a movie - fun-in-the-sun, bikinis, breasts, booze, drugs, sex, violence, Disney girls gone wild. But the director asks the question, 'Is it a dream or a nightmare?' And the thing I liked, Korine didn't give any answer, moral or conclusion to the audience. It's up to you, you need to make the choise.
As for the actors, girls are just nubile figures, look-alike blondes and naive brunette Faith. But drug dealer/swaggy macho//wannabe rapper is the best James Franco's character for the moment. He's charming and disgusting at the same time. And his lascivious smile is hard to forget.
PS. This scene is awesome!
