Korine emerges (again)

"Paranoid Park" director Gus Van Sant with Harmony Korine, who was visibly nervous before his screening of "Mister Lonely."  "I haven't made a film in a long time," he said. 

Why? 

"I was messed up.  I had a lot of issues.  It took me time to work them out.  But I'm back." 

Korine started at a very young age.  He found through the years of "Kids," "Gummo," and "Julien Donkey-Boy," that "I'd dug himself into a hole" and lost his love for film. 

It took him a long time to reattach.  One day he saw a woman walking an invisible dog.  He asked what she was doing.  She replied it was time for him to make another movie.  So he did.
