Steven T Hanley of Vice recently spoke to Harmony Korine about his new art exhibition and mentioned his upcoming film The Trap.  This is what Harmony had to say:
Your upcoming movie, The Trap, is about a boat-robbing crew in Miami, and you’ve spoken before about this idea for it to be ultra-violent and akin to a drug experience.
I’m always trying to get to a point where the movie-making is more inexplicable—an energy, rather than anything steeped in narrative. I was always trying to do something that was closer to a drug experience, or a hallucinatory experience, or something more like a feeling. There’s a language that I’ve been trying to develop for a while, so that was what The Trap was going to be a continuation of. But I don’t know if I’m going to make that movie. I was supposed to shoot in May, but I lose interest. It’s not that I’m not making it. I’m just almost done with another script. I’m going to make one of the two this year, I’m just not sure which one.
Well that really does not sound very encouraging. I can understand it though. Getting a movie made must be exhausting and limiting. I am sure, once it is back on a creative cycle, Harmony with be better able to re-invest
I do hope this movie gets made. It appears to be really confronting. I am starting to expect that from my Rob movies.
No comment for me…,
