Peaches allows her father to show off a photo album to her new boyfriend, while Tate manages half a delightful game of Scrabble with his grandparents before blowing up at them.īefore long, however, Ken Park 's tabloid instinct kicks in and we gets scenes of murder, incest and graphic sex that somewhat betray the more insightful, instinctive scenes. Claude clips his mother's toenails and spots his father lifting weights. During their search, Clark, Korine and co-director Edward Lachman manage some quietly touching, but dimly sinister scenes. They're looking for love but finding instead anger, confusion and frustration. And Claude (Stephen Jasso) constantly competes with his macho father while adoring his pregnant mother (Amanda Plummer).Īll of these kids have uneasy relationships with the adult figures in their lives. Peaches (Tiffany Limos) lives with her ultra-religious father and has learned how to be extra-kinky with her boyfriend despite his stern watch. Tate (James Ransone) lives with his grandparents and arbitrarily strikes out at them and at his miserable three-legged dog. Shawn (James Bullard) provides oral sex for his girlfriend's mother. The story focuses on four teenagers and their various, disturbed relationships with their parents. Because of its intense sexual nature, Ken Park never found a United States distributor, though it's available on two different import DVDs through.
The creators of Kids (1995), director Larry Clark and writer Harmony Korine, reunite for this equally disturbing but sadly less cohesive film.
