kids.

10th grade. I'll never forget the first time I saw this movie. I was in awe. It was so real. It was so raw (literally). To be honest, even for a little mischievous teen like myself, it was a little alarming. I thought, "wow, kids in New York really do this shit?!" From that moment on, I knew that I would have to make a trip to NYC. I wasn't fascinated by the Statue of Liberty or the Empire State Building, none of that shit. I wanted to go to NYC because of this movie. Because I saw kids skateboarding in the street. Because I saw kids getting high in public. Because I saw an amputee bum on the subway singing catchy tunes. Because I saw a dude get beat with a skateboard until he was unconscious. Because Rosario Dawson is so fucking beautiful. 

This movie will remain a classic. 

RIP Casper.
