Spring Breakers is featured in this new GQ Magazine article! Check out the Q&A with director Harmony Korine and get a glimpse into “the cultural petri dish that is South Florida, a neon depository where America’s trashiest get deep-fried.” The story also features this photo of Vanessa Hudgens and Rachel Korine by Annabel Mehran who has shot for NY Times Magazine, Vice, Tokion, Teen Vogue, Dossier Journal (and the list goes on).
We dug into the MUSE Archives to show you some photos from the set of Larry Clark’s 2001 film BULLY. For those who haven’t seen it (you should) BULLY is based on a true story (from a book by Jim Schutze, screenplay by David McKenna and Roger Pullis) and stars Michael Pitt, Brad Renfro, Nick Stahl, Bijou Phillips, Leo Fitzpatrick and Rachel Miner.
Entertainment Tonight linked up with Spring Breakers stars Selena Gomez, Ashley Benson and Vanessa Hudgens on the set in Florida last month. The ladies gushed about working with Harmony Korine, James Franco’s transformation into ‘Alien’ and why this film will be amazing and controversial.

20 YEARS OF MUSE PRODUCTIONS
Harmony Korine’s Spring Breakers, which wrapped on Sunday, will feature appearances by Heather Morris and her creative partner and BFF Ashley Lendzion (check out their video series Snuts!). In this clip, Morris talks with MUSEproductions’ Roberta Hanley about Korine’s script for SpringBreakers, Selena Gomez’s sincerity and her own directing aspirations. The film stars Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Benson, Rachel Korine and James Franco, and is a MUSE production.

The late Brad Renfro (who died of a heroin overdose in 2008) spilled to MUSEproductions’ Chris Hanley on the set of the movie Bully. He talks about unconditional love, indulgence and why working with Bully director Larry Clark on the 2001 film is the only acting gig he hasn’t hated because he “lets you open up and bleed, by God.” To see the filmmaking process from another angle, MUSEproductions talked to Clark about Bully. You can see that conversation in this clip (on our newly re-vamped Vimeo page).
And this decade old MUSE project has connections to our current one, the much-buzzed about Spring Breakers directed by Harmony Korine and currently finishing up shooting in Florida. Korine got his filmmaking start collaborating with Clark on the dark classic and controversial film Kids when he was only 19-years-old. And part of Spring Breakers star James Franco’s participation in the Venice Biennale art installation includes him filming himself having Renfro’s name carved into his arm with a switchblade. Renfro was a co-star and a friend of Franco’s, and the exhibition explores “themes of masculinity, self-destruction and Hollywood,” as does Renfro in this clip.
Spring Breakers starlets Ashley Benson, Vanessa Hudgens and Rachel Korine get down with MUSE’s own Chris Hanley (who is known for his moves) on the set.
Follow @SpringBrkrs for all the updates on Harmony Korine’s latest film (which also stars James Franco and Selena Gomez).
People are saying Spring Breakers star James Franco’s character ’Alien’ looks like all sorts of people: Rapper Riff Raff, ex-Britney Spears beau Kevin Federline and Jared Leto in the Panic Room. But what do YOU think?
