‘Aggro Dr1ft’ Review: Harmony Korine Goes Sicko Mode In A Visually Stunning Journey Through Miami Thug Life [Venice]

Another day, another viral airplane passenger video.

Watching Mountains, which just made its international debut as part of the Toronto Film Festival’s Centerpiece program, I could not help but think of two other landmark films it seems to recall in its own way. One was 2019’s The Last Black Man In San Francisco, a remarkable story of gentrification and its effect on those being edged out of their home that starred Jimmie Falls and launched the career of Jonathan Majors. The other was the 1960 film version of Lorraine Hansberry’s oft-performed A Raisin In The Sun in which Sidney Poitier as Walter Lee Younger played a struggling husband, son, and father with a dream for a new house and a better life for his family.

Depending on who you speak to, Aggro Dr1ft has either been a hideous blight on the fall festival circuit or… Well, currently, there’s not exactly a consensus on what there is to love about Harmony Korine’s in-your-face fantasia, a nightmare vision of Florida made all the more hellish by its refusal to resemble anything you might expect even — or perhaps especially — from the director of Spring Breakers.

It is an overused cliche to describe visually stunning films as “every frame of this movie could be a painting hanging on the wall.” It is now an actual fact for at least two films. “Loving Vincent” was the first animated feature-length film composed exclusively of hand-painted oil paintings as its individual frames.

Gisele Bündchen has been focusing on herself following her divorce from Tom Brady. The supermodel, who is currently booked and busy with multiple fashion campaigns, has been spending some quality time at the gym, working on her fitness and diet, as she is visibly more muscular.TOM BRADY AND GISELE BÜNDCHEN’S SON IS READY TO BECOME AN NFL STARGISELE BÜNDCHEN AND ADRIANA LIMA JOIN VICTORIA’S SECRET NEWEST CAMPAIGNDuring a recent outing in Miami, Gisele was photographed leaving the gym and running some errands.

New Zealand-born director Lee Tamahori has dabbled in big-budget Hollywood film-making (“Die Another Day,” “XXX: State of the Union”) as well as more intimately-scaled films exploring his Māori heritage (“Once Were Warriors,” “Mahana”).

The first real clue comes when Andrzej is called up for national service and, standing in front of the army medics in his underwear, refuses to take his socks off. His toenails were painted blue, he tells his mates cheerfully a couple of years later, as if it were a joke. But it isn’t a joke; it is the most serious thing in his life. He is waving a flag at the time; they are in the bloom of the Solidarity movement and the promise of a new world, when it feels like anything goes. 

Argentina superstar Lionel Messi has delivered a simple message to Inter Miami supporters after helping the club to another important victory over LAFC - where several Hollywood A-listers watched on.

Ellise Shafer Harmony Korine’s “Aggro Dr1ft” received a 10-minute standing ovation after its premiere at Venice Film Festival, despite a flurry of walkouts. Though some audience members left as soon as the experimental action film finished (and at least 25 departed before that), Korine’s hardcore fans stuck around for a rousing 10-minute ovation. As Korine greeted the crowd and did a happy dance, chants of “Harmony! Harmony! Harmony!” rang out.

Peter Debruge Chief Film Critic I have seen the future of cinema, and it is “Aggro Dr1ft,” a neon-hued outlaw eyegasm from the director of ”Spring Breakers.” There will likely never be another film like it. Even so, it’s clear that Harmony Korine’s immersive iridescent plunge into the world and psyche of a serial killer points the way down fresh avenues for the medium to explore.

Harmony Korine has said he embraced AI technology for the making of his new experimental film Aggro Dr1ft which world premieres Out of Competition at the Venice Film Festival on Saturday.

Ellise Shafer Harmony Korine arrived to the Venice Film Festival press conference for his latest film, “Aggro Dr1ft,” wearing a devilish mask inspired by the movie with a cigar in hand. Korine was joined by “Aggro Dr1ft” visual effects artist Joao Rosa and Eric Kohn, the newly announced head of film strategy and development at his company EDGLRD. All three sported horned masks with bee-like eyes — Korine’s was yellow while Rosa wore a white mask and Kohn donned a black one.

Peter Debruge Chief Film Critic Harmony Korine used to be a movie junkie, someone who’d watch anything and everything. These days, when people recommend a movie, “I’ll look at it and I feel nothing, like dead inside,” says the guy whose own films, from “Spring Breakers” to the controversial screenplay for Larry Clark’s “Kids,” are nothing if not disruptive. “Watching a lot of this shit, you really feel the algorithms,” he says the day before receiving the Pardo d’onore Manor prize at the Locarno Film Festival.

While he’s now 50 years old, former enfante terrible filmmaker Harmony Korine is still a little mischievous boy at heart. While he’s seemingly mellowed somewhat—and kinda stopped telling tall tales— unless his recent comments about potentially directing a Terrence Malick script is one of his fibs—he’s also not against doing wild experimental sh*t.

EDGLRD—the new multidisciplinary design collective founded by filmmaker and artist Harmony Korine—has named Eric Kohn as Head of Strategy and Development, Film. Kohn comes to EDGLRD from his position as VP, Editorial Strategy and Executive Editor at IndieWire, where he has worked for over 16 years. Kohn will officially assume the position on August 30, 2023.

To drum up hype for EDGLRD, his new creative collective/design studio, Harmony Korine put one of America’s greatest living filmmakers in his sights. EW reports (via a new GQ profile) that, with the recent advances in gaming technology (the same Korine uses to make his new film “Aggro Dr1ft“), videogames now look better than movies visually.
