There's so much going on in \ufeffSpring Breakers\ufeff that Andrew and Monica barely know where to begin. In this episode, they turn their attention to several of the themes and ideas Harmony Korine seems to be exploring. Is the film's depiction of blackface racist? What does the film seem to be saying about this generation? Does the ending transform it into a tale of feminist empowerment, or does Korine take his objectification of women too far? Tune in to find out.
