NOT PERFECT CHILDREN

Ketih bierygolicK | managing editor

Some reviewers have argued “Spring Breakers” is a social criticism, an indictment of the alcohol and drug-fueled trips teenagers make to Florida every year, but these critics are missing the point.

“I think it’s connected to youth culture in some way,” said director Harmony Korine in a conference call. “But at the same time … it was never meant to be a kind of documentary or an expose on something. It is more like a reinterpretation of those things.”

What Korine is trying to say, but can’t quite come to terms with, is his film has nothing to say. It’s as superficial and one-note as a cum-stained “Girls Gone Wild” DVD — if “Girls Gone Wild” was scored by Skrillex and featured James Franco playing a drug dealer with nappy braids and a silver grill.

“It’s something that’s more like a pop poem, or almost like the real world but pushed into something more … hyper-poetic,” Korine said. “In the end, it was more about — it was more observational. It was about a kind of culture of surfaces — the way things looked and felt, and the kind of pathology was the residue of that.”

It’s true, there is a certain poetry about the film (Spring break. Spring break forever).

The dialogue is minimalistic, but it’s often repeated, as is a variety of the film’s imagery (Spring break. Spring break forever).

Stock footage of crazy parties on the beach, complete with topless girls, shirtless guys and beer bongs galore flash across the screen again and again (Spring break. Spring break forever).

It happens so much it becomes very tempting to assign meaning to it, especially when it’s Franco’s voice

crawling across the crunching electronic music and gorgeous bare breasts, whispering, “Spring break. Spring break forever.”

But after any period of reflection about the film, deeper meaning will fall away, which makes sense, because this is a Harmony Korine film.

Korine is best known as the screenwriter for “Kids” and as the director of “Gummo” — two boundary-pushing films essentially about wayward teenagers doing truly terrible things.

He’s also known for being crazy, twitchy and most likely high in his frequent late-’90s appearances on “The Late Show with David Letterman,” until Letterman banned him from ever coming back when he caught Korine rummaging through Meryl Streep’s purse before one particular show.

But don’t ask Korine what he’s learned from these experiences, because

he’s never thought about it.“I don’t have any type of desire to

meditate on things, you know what I mean? I just want to light it all up and set it on fire,” Korine said. “Film isn’t therapy for me. I think it’s all bullshit. I think people just make up — they can make up answers to their own questions to make themselves more comfortable. I’ve never needed to do that. I’m completely comfortable with the way I function.”

After leaving drugs behind, the way he functions now is much more normal. At least as normal as someone who proclaims, “[Rapper] Gucci [Mane] is what makes America great,” can possibly be.

“I didn’t really get a chance to meet with Harm (Korine) until I got to Florida. So we just did like a few Skype sessions, and we talked on the phone,” said Ashley Benson, who plays Brit in the film. “When I got the project, I looked him up on YouTube and I saw his interviews and stuff on Letterman; and he was crazy. But when I met him in person, he was just like a normal dude.”

No matter how sane Korine seems these days “Spring Breakers” is anything but. And even though it stars James Franco, Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens, it’s not a film many people will appreciate.

“There’s a lot of different emotions and images and ambiguities and strangeness and beauty and horror; it’s all kind of mixed up and dancing together,” Korine said. “It’s kind of a cultural mash-up, or an impressionistic reinterpretation of all those things and feelings.”

Sure, it’s a film about four girls who go wild on spring break, but it’s also so much more than that. And at the same time, it’s not.

It’s skin deep, the type of film one might enjoy while under the influence, re-watch a week later and wonder what the hell they enjoyed about it in the first place.

It’s OK for Korine to not reflect on his life. It’s OK that he doesn’t want answers. It’s OK that his films aren’t therapy and that he doesn’t want to clutter up cinemas with mainstream films.

I’m not here to judge his lifestyle or personal opinion. But if he gazed inward and looked for answers more often, his films would be better for it.

‘Spring Breakers’ defies classification

APRIL 3-9, 2013 — MOVIE REVIEW — NEWSRECORD.ORG — FOR THE RECORD

JAKE GRIECO | SENIOR REPORTER

Cincinnati soul and country blues resonated throughout The Southgate House Revival Lounge Saturday as The Perfect Children wowed the crowed with its raw and emotional presence.

When Kristen Kreft, lead singer, guitar and piano player, isn’t writing songs, she’s either teaching music to children, bartending at Japp’s or makes tutus for both children and adults. Kreft was born and raised in Cincinnati. Kreft attended the Cincinnati School for Creative and Performing Arts and left for New York with musical-theater aspirations after graduation.

Kreft tried to make a name for herself for 10 years, but felt the New York scene wasn’t about originality. Instead, it was just about pleasing an audience. After this realization, she knew she wanted to write her own music.

Kreft then returned to Cincinnati where a thriving and supportive music scene welcomed her home.

“We’ve got a really amazing local scene for original music,” Kreft said. “I wanted to come here and be true to myself. It’s the perfect place to branch out and tour.”

The Perfect Children played two sets Saturday, and Kreft performed on piano the whole time. The fi rst set featured songs from Kreft’s former band, the J. Dorsey Blues Revival.

Throughout the night, she encouraged people to get up and dance. The way Kreft knows if the show has been successful is if the crowd moves its feet, she said.

“If people are dancing then they’re

having a good time — that’s organic,” Kreft said. And Saturday, The Perfect Children got the whole place grooving. One fan even wound up rolling on the fl oor.

Kreft said the band likes to have a sense of humor on stage, so when that fan — who happened to have long hair — caught her attention, Kreft asked him if he wanted to “whip his hair back and forth.” The Perfect Children then broke into an impromptu cover of Willow Smith’s “Whip My Hair,” which provoked the entire audience to obey the famous lyrics.

The energy of the fi rst set was great, but it was the second set that was truly intoxicating. Partly because of Kreft’s deeply personal lyrics.

“All these songs are about a break up,” Kreft said. “It all comes from a place of healing for me.”

The most notable song of the night was “Just Like You.” Kreft’s penetrating voice bellowed out the simple, yet powerful lyrics and for the fi rst time all night the audience stood still.

“There’s never been a moment in my life where I haven’t wanted to sing,” Kreft said.

Through the band’s show, Kreft wanted to remind fans original music is only a short drive away.

“You don’t have to just sit in your neighborhood bar and listen to covers songs you’ve already heard before,” Kreft said. “There are people out there making music.”

As Kreft said, the band is only one example of what Cincinnati has to offer, but anyone who has a chance to experience The Perfect Children will receive an exceptional sample of true Cincinnati talent.

CASEY TUCKER | FOR THE VERGE MAGAZINE

At a community-supported agriculture farm in suburban Ohio, everything epitomizes cultivation and life. The roosters and birds awaken the day and the smell of dirt and hard labor fi lls the air. Duke, a yellow and orange mutt, greets everyone with a wagging tail and rolls over on his back inviting belly rubs. Nearby a dirt-splattered Jeep squats in the gravel driveway proudly sporting a bumper sticker that reads “No Farms, No Food.” A fl oppy straw hat shades the face of a worker picking crops. Rows of mixed baby greens and bok choy grow in precise waves. And everything in sight is tilled, sowed, weeded, plowed, lopped and topped, taught and sustained organically.

Turner Farm in Cincinnati is one of many farms, businesses and organizations across the country focused on producing and promoting organic food. With several organic labels and stickers popping up in grocery stores, a lot of people have heard of organic, some may even eat it regularly, but many don’t understand what it really means. Just walking down the produce aisle at the grocery nowadays has become

quite complex: Questions and uncertainties about what to buy can overwhelm anyone trying to check off their Sunday grocery list.

Today, the Organic Farming Research Foundation, an organization that supports organic research, sees organic agriculture as one of the fastest growing forms of farming in our country. The national organization has certifi ed 14,500 organic farmers who are supporting a $29 billion organic industry.

That’s no small potatoes, but what’s behind the push for organic goods? There is no proof that organic is more nutritious than conventional food, so why are people crowding into farmer’s markets spending extra green for certifi ed organic heirloom tomatoes, when the tomatoes at the local grocery chain down the street look just as tasty? The truth is, while the physical traits of each tomato may be identical, the way they were grown are not. So what are the long-term eff ects of the chemicals used to treat and grow conventional food? Well, that’s it — we just don’t know.

“We don’t know the positive or negative eff ects of genetically modifi ed organisms on our human health,” said

Denise Ryan, OFRF’s external relations director. “But the fact that we don’t know really builds more of a case why we should know if the food we eat contains it or not.”

The real problem is a lack of research, Ryan said. OFRF is one advocate of organic farming that is trying to provide research to show the human health benefi ts and risks involved with the food we eat.

“We do know that obesity is off the charts; we know that diabetes is off the charts,” Ryan said. “At the end of the day, what it really begs is the need for research.”

What is known is the literal diff erence between organic and conventional farming (or, as Ryan likes to call it, non-organic, because she feels organic should be the new conventional). The organic certifi cation process means that there are no chemicals used in the farming process. In conventional farming, food producers typically use chemicals and pesticides on their plants and antibiotics and growth hormones on their animals. Thanks to these methods, farmers are able to produce bigger and more products easier: This means an abundance of inexpensive food for the consumer and a larger profi t for the farmer. From a fi nancial standpoint, it sounds like a winning strategy, but in terms of consumption and health indications, it leaves a lot of uncertainties. Americans are becoming more aware of everything we put in our bodies, including the food we eat. But we are still eating McDonald’s — or suing the fast-food chains for making us obese. However, there are still companies out there making healthy and quality food very aff ordable and very accessible.

Green B.E.A.N. Delivery is an organic produce and natural grocery delivery service off ered in parts of Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky and dedicated to putting organic and natural foods in everyone’s kitchen.

“Our main stipulation is that anything you fi nd or shop for on our websites will be free of additives, free of preservatives, free of growth hormones and things such as that,” said John Freeland, Green B.E.A.N.’s vice president. “It takes the guesswork out for the consumer.”

Green B.E.A.N. isn’t only taking the guesswork out for its customers and putting good food (literally) on the doorsteps of customers. Green B.E.A.N. aims to put the power back into small and mid-size farms.

“[Overall] our message is truly about eating healthy,” Freeland said. “We want to provide a system that allows all ranges of demographics and people access to these products. Convenience, aff ordability and accessibility are some of our three main sticking points for what we feel the service brings. Organic is very important to us because we believe in the practices of the agricultural side with how the land is treated. And obviously from a consumption level, avoiding the pesticides and chemicals that inherently come along with conventional farming.”

Now a booming business, organic farming grew 20 percent between 1987 and 2008, and since has steadily grown at 10 percent. This sudden increase, OFRF’s Ryan feels, is no accident. The increase it tied to the biggest

supporters of the organic industry: middle-aged women.

“They’re mothers, they’re daughters, they’re apart of the sandwich

generation,” Ryan said. “They are in the middle of their life. They’ve had transformative life experience having children as well as taking care of their

parents.”They are women like Jayne

Close, a wife and mother, who became a community-supported agriculture member at

Turner Farm shortly after its transition to organic in 1994. CSA is a model

of agriculture where members pay in advance for their food. However, Turner Farm

has a diff erent twist on it and every CSA member

both pays for his or her food with some

money and some labor.

“I know Bonnie [Mitsui], the owner, has a philosophy where she likes people to be more in

touch with where their food comes from,”

Close said. When Close

joined the farm 15 years ago, she had not been married long, didn’t cook much, and had never seen produce on the vine, but she had an appreciation for natural foods, and the organic aspect was just a big plus. Now she says her decision to eat organic has mostly become a health choice, but she buys organic for environmental reasons too.

“Any more I feel like ‘What’s in the food system?’” Close said. “I like the idea that organic at least takes out the chemicals and pesticides. I have three kids and especially when they were little, I felt [troubled by] these things that we have no idea how [they’re] going to aff ect them. So [I want to] let them grow up with as little exposure to those kinds of things.”

For the folks at Turner Farm, it isn’t just about organic versus conventional, good versus evil, but also about sustainability. Megan Hill, garden manager at Turner Farm, knew while growing up that gardening is what she loved to do.

“When I was a kid I loved to weed on Saturday mornings,” Hill said. “I still like to weed on Saturday mornings.”

Originally from Maryland, Hill worked in international development and was feeling burnt out when an opportunity came along to move to Cincinnati. She took it and applied for an internship at the farm. Hill has been at Turner farm since 2009, and as she picks arugula, she is grateful to be working for an organization that promotes organic food production.

“When you’re growing food in a healthy and sustainable way, you know what you’re doing is positive in every way,” Hill said. “There is nothing negative about it. And you get to

be outside all the time, and make things grow and meet cool people. It’s pretty much a win-win all around.”

For Turner Farm, it’s about educating, sustainability and positivity. For Close and her family, it’s being able to see where their food comes from. For Green B.E.A.N., it’s aff ordability and accessibility; and for OFRF, it’s fi nding out more — more about the food we put into our bodies and how it aff ects us. Ryan is not worried, though. When she looks ahead, the future looks peachy and pesticide-free.

“I’m very optimistic,” she said. “Our vision is that organic farming is the leading form of agriculture in America.”

“Evil Dead” — April 5

A remake of the original “The Evil Dead” (1981), “Evil Dead” unfolds as five young friends travel to a secluded cabin. They discover a Book of the Dead hidden inside and unknowingly summon malicious demons. The demons terrorize the group, possessing them one by one, until only one is left. The last one must fight for survival or fall victim to its evil. Written and directed by Fede Alvarez, “Evil Dead” was produced by Sam Raimi, the director of the original horror classic, and Bruce Campbell, who starred in the original. With that kind of talent on board, the film has a chance to shock, terrify and perhaps even disgust audiences.

“Scary Movie V” — April 12

It’s been seven years since the release of “Scary Movie 4,” and Dimension Films is finally releasing “Scary Movie V” — without series veteran Anna Farris. This time around, the raunchy comedy spoofs the “Paranormal Activity” supernatural horror movies. A couple, Dan and Jody Campbell (Simon Rex and Ashley Tisdale) bring their newborn baby home from the hospital when unexplained happenings begin to terrorize them. A team of supernatural experts, along with their surveillance equipment, informs the family they are being haunted by a perverse demon. Appearances by Charlie Sheen, Lindsay Lohan and Heather Locklear are sure to make for a hilarious and crude new installment of the “Scary Movie” franchise.

“42” — April 12

Writer and director Brian Helgeland brings audiences the inspiring story of Jackie Robinson and his journey through Major League Baseball. Robinson

(Chadwick Boseman) starts playing in the minor leagues and then fights his way up to the major leagues with the help of Brooklyn Dodgersteam executive, Branch Rickey (Harrison Ford). Robinson becomes the first African-American baseball player to play in the major leagues.

“The Lords of Salem” — April 19

Rob Zombie’s (“The Devil’s Rejects) newest film, “The Lords of Salem,” is a supernatural story about a coven of ancient witches coming back to Salem, Mass. Heidi (Sheri Moon Zombie), a radio disc jockey, receives a mysterious wooden box containing a vinyl record sent from The Lords. Thinking she is about to discover a new band, Heidi plays the record on air. To her bewilderment, the sounds within the grooves of the record trigger flashbacks of her town’s troubled past. Later, Heidi’s partner Whitey (Jeff Daniel Phillips) plays the record again, calling the band “The Lord’s of Salem.” The song becomes a hit. But strange reactions to the music persist and Heidi eventually finds her life in danger.

“The Big Wedding” — April 26

This comedic remake of the 2006 film, “Mon frère se marie,” stars Robert De Niro, Diane Keaton and Katherine Heigl. The long-divorced couple Don (De Niro) and Ellie (Keaton) must pretend to still be happily married for their adopted son Alejandro’s (Ben Barnes) wedding. Don and Ellie’s fake marriage escalates into a touching and hilarious story about binding family ties. The fake couple strives to survive the weekend wedding celebrations, much to the amusement of children and friends of the family, as their hoax threatens to fall apart.

SARAH MULLINS | STAFF REPORTER

1NAVY LACE DRESSWhere to buy: Trend Boutique, Oakley — $68Inspired by: Kate MiddletonStyle Tip: Add glitz with vintage rhinestone earrings.

Grandma’s closet has suddenly become a gold mine for one of spring’s most coveted trends — lace. Lace has always had a classy reputation; so looking tailored and chic can be pulled off easily with the delicate fabric. Lace can look cheap, so be sure to add a vibrant pair of fl ats or pumps and a small neon clutch for a pop of color. To transform your daytime dress into a rebellious evening get-up, pair with spring leathers — a dark clutch, heels and a blazer with leather details. Also, like this navy dress, distressed buttons and other metal details add edginess, but don’t go over the top. Wear dark lace with bright colors; don’t wear light-colored lace with dark undergarments.

BLACK-STUDDED BAG Where to buy: Substance OTR — $49.50 (SALE)Inspired by: Kristin CavallariStyle Tip: Wear as a cross-body bag to transport basic notebooks and tablets for class.

Everyone needs a go-to handbag. This metal-studded bag is made with vegan leather and will fi t your wallet, tablet and everyday notebook. Along with the necessities, other items — gym clothes, snacks and homework on the go — the typical college student needs fi t easily. The metal stud details add a little bit of vintage to an otherwise modern bag. When choosing a bag to use everyday, save up for quality and fi nd one you absolutely cannot live without. Handbags must hold up while being tossed on the fl oor, thrown in the car and hung in your dorm. So do not opt for an inexpensive bag — you get what you pay for.

VINTAGE POCKET WATCH NECKLACEWhere to buy: Substance OTR — $22Inspired by: Nicole RichieStyle Tip: Spray paint a few other chain necklaces with metal paint to add a pop of color and layer with your vintage pocket watch.

Vintage items have long been a trend — even your grandfather’s pocket watch can be fashionable. Wearing vintage items gives your style a distinct, sophisticated look. Wearing something like a locket or pocket watch on a long chain is an effortless way to add an accessory to a plain top or dress. Mix and match multiple gold and silver chains to go with other pieces of jewelry. A variety of chain styles and thicknesses will add dimension to your ensemble — no need for other pieces of jewelry.
