Very Bad Cinema

Since watching 'Kids' i think ive recommended it to so many friends there sick of me constantly going on about it! i really did think the film was amazing though, but i can understand why people called for it to be banned. My opinion is that those who wanted it to be banned were scared of the truth. Scared to admit that things that happened in that film really do occur on the streets. Although it was released about 15 yrs ago, it does stil apply in todays society. Youngsters are becoming more promiscuous and carless with who they sleep with. The film dealt with so many issues in the hour and half it covered that it was hard to keep up. The film may be considered slightly exaggerated but it is based on an underlying truth about what goes on on the streets when youngsters are unsuperivsed.


The link below sums up the way Larry Clark made Kids the way he did...
