      I read a comment from someone on another video that worked on different film with a grip that worked on Gummo and said that the real story is that Harmony was wasted pretty much the whole filming and threw a large framed painting (not his sister) through bay window and it hit one of the other grips in the head, so they crew got fed up and put him in the van and basically said they're not filming anymore and he was forced to finish the film on that day.

    The way I remember it was, after shooting the scene, Harmony walked outside and through a huge rock through the window walked back inside and said, "Fuck yeah, I just made a movie!.' I gave him the mason handshake and the producer got on the radio and said, "someone get chloe!" etc. etc. It was a drunk fucked up night that's for sure.

    I'm interested in his comment- "In order to get to a place where I could be that honest with my emotions I needed to...be in a certain state..." I'd like to know what people think about the role of drugs in the art world. Do you still value what the artist produces under the influence? Or do you see it as a product of the drugs they take rather than of their own imagination?

You don't think Harmony filmed this and thought to himself 'this is so very serious, i put absolutely no comedic value in any of my films.' Jesus, you people should get off your high horse and enjoy the film like the people in the audience obviously are.

    Awesome experimental cinema. Stop ragging jus cuz its not linear. The only point of a movie is to entertain you and make you think, and this movie does just that. The movies is not a bunch of "random" bullshit... who cares if not everything is connected and there isn't a central plot. Its a dif style movie- a bold style.
    The movies's various clips all revolve around a common theme, vibe, and feeling. it may not have a solid plot, but together the clips work together to paint a picture.
