The A24 Rocks crew looks back at the first feature film Harmony Korine directed, the controversial Criterion classic Gummo.

It was also the third film for Chloe Sevigny, who has acted in many other indie gems in her career. How has Gummo aged after all these years? Caution: movie spoilers.

In this A24 vibe discussion, these film reviewers discuss what many critics are calling "the film of the decade" in One Battle After Another.
