I’ve got a serious soft spot for the work of Harmony Korine. I’ve tried to explain it to several friends on a few occasions, and failed miserably.
My favorite piece of work by Korine happens to be his now out of print novel; A Crack Up at the Race Riots. I would call that a novel, loosely. It’s more a collection of poems, one-offs, dialogues, suicide notes, jokes, and a few things that would make a billy goat puke.
A Crack Up at the Race Riots is one of my prized possessions, if you will. It’s the second funniest book I’ve ever read.
Rather than try to explain (or scare you with) the reasons why I admire Harmony’s work, I thought I’d post a few of my favourite clips from his films, and a classic appearance on Letterman.

Still don’t get it.
I think you’re trying too hard.
