  1. there's a fundamental lack of control, and skateboarding allows a certain level of control. Mixed with mental illness resulting from a neglectful upbringing, and a vast variety of additional variables, results in an intense creativity which requires consistent output. Trauma begets art. Inversely, lack of trauma begets mundanity.

  2. I skated in the late 80s early 90s, it's where I found my friend group. They were my peers. I loved them, finally i fit into something !!. such memorable and wild times. So far fringe from what our age group were doing and into. Sk84life

  3. I smoked crack with harmonie early 2000s it was random as hell at a party bunch of us were doing blow smoking drinking and he showed up I got him some and he convinced me to smoke with him lol

  4. Kids, great movie. Spring Breakers, Fantastic.
    I think, Spring Breakers, is one of the best movies to come out. Since it's premiere around 2010, I think.
    I hope Harmony creates another masterpiece. Interesting man.

  5. I loved that film “Kids” I grew up in that same era, I wish I had heard about his other work as a filmmaker sooner. Thanks for this video Vice

  6. Now this is the Vice that I remember loving! MORE OF THIS VICE!!! Not the Politically Woke BS that you've been pumping out lately! Just real/raw opinionless journalism where it feels like the audience has just woken up where ever it is and is just experiencing what is going on around them first hand! No hand holding! That's the Vice we want!

  7. This dudes movies are sh*t boring, overrated. People gettin excited about this guy just cuz he’s a 3rd rate “artsy film” weirdo 😂

  8. thanks for the time warp back to the good ol days. kids was so great because its real. its easy to follow along when your living the life you see in the movie. every scene got you reminiscing about a similar event in your own life. masterpiece

  9. I feel so fortunate to have witnessed this time… Skating was so rebellious and it was so much fun….was a meth head POS at this time…now, I'm a retired vet, sober for 21 years and look back at these times and smile at the times, mostly with gratitude that I'm clean today and have stories to share.

  10. Only watched kids 1x when i was 21, living in a $300/month basement studio apartment. All dingy, moldy, and nasty… Feel like it was cold and rainy out too… Fucking creeped me out. AIDs and radiation poisonings freak me out. Heart rate goes up walking around the hospital seeing those radioactive signs on rooms.

  11. I think people would freak out these days if little kids had stuff thrown at them or getting knives pulled on them for being skaters.

  12. Fast forward to New York today and pull a meat cleaver, then security pulls a .22…Both guys get shot/arrested by the cops.

  13. I associated skating violence. H.K. helped shape me in my preteens and I wasn't even aware of just how much. I also identify so deeply with so much of it.

  14. I remember when kids came out and I like 13/14, but wanted to see the movie so bad (it was NC17), and my parents weren't strict about movies, so my mom took me and like my 9 year old brother. Yikes. It wasn't something she was prepared for, even though she didn't care about movie ratings. Then I waited for Harmony's follow up film, Gummo, and I vividly remember my brother and I watching it on video and I still remember those kids shooting the cats and selling them to that restaurant. Yikes!

  15. No, their lives weren’t fantastic, and if they had been fantastic it wouldn’t have been because those boys were unhinged. Proof of concept: They are both dead.

  16. This is one of my top-ten favorite flicks of all time, but that park fight scene still disturbs me.
