If everyone involved with that film kept their job, I'd say Hollywood is a pretty okay place. Harmony Korine is one of the new American members (along with Paul Morrisey) of Dogma95, and his new film will be called "Julien", again with Chloë Sevigny. It is a Dogma95-compliant film. When I saw Korine at Telluride, he was talking of a new brand of "mistakist" cinema, which consists of giving everyone cameras and letting them film whatever they want, while he pieces it together in the editing room. Seeing him raise his fist as anarchy broke out in a discussion with Oliver Stone, Paul Schrader and John Sayles is still a high point in my memory. Jonathan ps the part with Slayer being carved into the arm comes direct from a Slayer video, I don't think Korine filmed it. pps there is another Scandinavian movement, this time pertaining to techno, called Dogma99. Its future seems less certain.
