The movie contains many sex scenes, and though these are simulated (obviously, seeing as the actors are not of age), it remains that they are troubling enough in their own right, as we see the teenagers of the film slip into seedy, sadistic sex, even at one point indulging in autoerotic asphyxiation in this bleak collection of strands and sub-plots (the one instance of unsimulated sex that makes the film eligible for inclusion on this list involves male masturbation). Limos, who is 22 but plays a 16-year-old named Peaches in the movie. Like Clark's and Korine's work before it (especially Kids, which is one of the darkest films ever made), it is deeply disturbing. That movie helped make actress Chloë Sevigny a big name, and he thinks Ken Park will do the same for Ms. Tate is brimming with psychotic rage Claude is habitually harassed by his brutish father and coddled, rather uncomfortably, by his.
Unlike Clark’s film Kids, the film hasn’t gone on to reach a cult status, but it certainly sits as a perfect example of a director who’s willing to push the taboo to its limits. Ken Park Back towards the rawer end of things, Ken Park, from directors Larry Clark (whose Kids and Bully were equally troubling) and Ed Lachman (the great cinematographer, here getting his only real significant directing credit to date) - and written by Clark and Harmony Korine (who wrote Kids and more recently directed Springbreakers) - tells the story of several underage Californian skateboarders who seek out sex in a fight against their dysfunctional, destructive home lives. Ken Park focuses on several teenagers and their tormented home lives. Ken Park is perhaps Clark’s most controversial one, having been banned upon release and causing quite a stir for it’s rather graphic sex scenes involving minors.
