25 years on, Larry Clark's seminal movie remains as iconic as ever. Here, the film's stars reflect on making Kids.
A quarter-century later, much of the film's cast are still hanging out in the city, but instead of being poster-children for shocking teendom, they're raising kids of their own. How did that happen? Leo Fitzpatrick androlled back the years for i-D, to look back at one of American cinema’s most notorious films and see what's changed since those heady days.
"I was the youngest guy on set!" Leo claims disparagingly, as his role as"virgin surgeon" unavoidably comes under scrutiny. The warm figure speaking over the phone, though, sounds nothing like the film's notorious lead."I was the sober kid from New Jersey, and I'd had sexas a whole, they agree, was a ripe snapshot of the world they inhabited.
"People thought it was real," says Leo, letting out a sigh."And nobody really told us what to do about that. I wasn't smart enough to know that I, in theory, had been abandoned. I was so weirded out about being known in NYC that I moved to London for a year." "He was the coolest one out of everybody, the one we all wanted to be like," claims Leo."It's hard to understand people's insecurities when you look up to them so much, but a lot of those guys would drink whatever they could get their hands on. It's a roll of the dice. At this point I've kind of lost count of how many friends I've lost, it's almost more strange to have survived it.
