Pranks!

About This Movie

So, 'Pranks!' is a pretty fascinating dive into the world of unconventional humor and subversive art. Leslie Asako Gladsjø captures these quirky pranksters, like Mark Pauline and Boyd Rice, in a series of interviews that are equal parts entertaining and thought-provoking. The vibe is raw and unfiltered, which is refreshing in the documentary landscape of the time. You get a real sense of the personalities at play here, from Karen Finley’s boldness to Joe Coleman's eccentric insights. It’s not just about laughs; there’s a deeper commentary on societal norms and the art of disruption. The pacing feels organic and often chaotic, mirroring the subject matter. Kind of an exploration of what it means to push boundaries through humor and art.
