Best film not nominated
"Spring Breakers"
June 22, 2014
Harmony Korine has never been one of my favorite filmmakers, but I absolutely love “Spring Breakers”. I was always interested in why spring break was displayed the way it commonly is in film: with hilarity, unforgettable memories and friendship. “Spring Breakers” breaks this mold, and just did everything I could have asked for. An almost surreal, psychedelic look at the world of spring break and the significance of an escapist mentality, piloted by James Franco. In general, the casting seemed to be extremely well done, and I loved the use of the (former) Disney stars. It was a very controversial picture, but one that I think deserves mention nonetheless.
