It’s #FlashbackFriday, y’all, and this week we’re celebrating Spring Break forevurrrrr through Harmony Korine’s unsung masterpiece Spring Breakers.
This week, from the vault of GoodTrash, the GoodTrash Gang examines this film through concepts of the american dream, colonialism, fetishisation, feminism, racism, Spring Break culture and church camp… Yeah, that’s right, church camp as they look at Spring Breakers.
Alex, Dalton, Dustin, and Arthur all really like the film, to varying degrees. In fact, most of our hosts like it so much that this movie gets added to the Platinum Shelf (in our Third Annual GoodTrash Shelvie awards episode) for Alex and Dalton, and is honorably mentioned by Arthur and Caleb when they end the year.
The GoodTrashers’s game this week is to count down their top three movies they would have on repeat. Finally, they end like we always do, talking pop culture and it’s fiery effect on them.
