Take two parts Michael Jackson (Diego Luna), one part Marilyn Monroe (Samantha Morton), a sprinkle of The Queen (Anita Pallenberg) and a twist of Charlie Chaplin (Denis Lavant); outcome? The brilliance of Harmony Korine and his latest master work Mister Lonely. Blending sheer fantasy and reality you’ll walk away questioning the next time you pass judgement on that person on Sunset or the Vegas Strip. Another one I haven’t seen in it’s entirety but the emotional and easy to follow trailer is at Fierce.com.
