The worrying thing about the film is how realistic it is.
Mn B Not anymore. Today, Jenny would’ve just informed Telly by text message that he had AIDS
worrying thing is the movie kids is a sneak peek in the real lives of some teenagers today.
Yeah to see on screen it seems really raw and bad but when you are living it (minus all the casual sex) it does not seem weird.
@@coachdemetrius It's a sneek-peek of the lives of some teens since the 1950's actually; kids nowadays are probably more educated in Sex issues and other social issues. When this film was made in the late 90s, THAT was the bad depraved time to be a teen, especially here in the UK ! Over here, hooliganism, alcoholism and general delinquency was the mainstream culture among the 13-25 age group, thanks to the mass-media becoming increasingly expansive and 'mandatory', alcohol being sold to minors, and pop culture being contaminated with depraved, moronic 'Brit' celebrities like The Spice Slags & Oasis. I think today's teens are more wise, tolerant & respectful, with more moral & social integrity.

He was in next Friday
So sad,,,,died of AIDS
Alex, he really did die in real life - suicide by hanging
Icon of Sin I thought the movie was acting.
rip justin and harold..
the legend never dies ,
It sucks that theres no footage of justin skating.
@@erickpoint0 there is footage
@@ThePyrekPL I've only seen one line where he kickflips up a curb and then a pop shuv it down it but that's it. If you know where there's more let me know I wanna see it
@@erickpoint0 there is, i have seen plenty of him they are short but there is footage
Watch Chloe face when she mentions about Justin killing himself. You can tell that really still affects her.
Awwww. She looks like she's about to cry :(
He ran up in her (*that counts 4 something)
Yeah I caught that. She’s still has a lot of guilt over what happened.
Damn i didnt know he killed himself :(
@@TheInstantClassic86 why does she have guilt? Were they together or something?
Telly really grew into his looks
Virgins he loves em, no diseases, no loose as @goose pussy, No skank #JUSTpurePLEASURE

@cyberdyneftw1015 For real bro
Watch The Wire
I was 15 in 95. The part that stuck with me was the "I have no legs" I still catch myself singing that song. When someone recognizes it, then I know that they were a "kid" too.
Haha...I was only a few years older, class of '95. I was in Chicago living a Cook County, Illinois version of this movie, myself. It's scary how much it was like everything we were doing back then.
Lololol same dude
Bro I was 15 also and I the same thing for me I still be saying from time to time I have no legs, I have no legs
So touching to see Chloe's eyes close at the mention of Justin.
that's because she felt guilt about justin dying knowing how abused they all were.
P.S. This is the last video my boyfriend ever saw. He loved this movie too....R.I.P. to my man...4/21/83-6/17/16
SoJustCool I’m sorry. How did he die?
SoJustCool that's really sad
Who cares.lmfao
Frankie Rasmussen 70 people seem to have a heart. Imagine if your mother or father or anyone you loved died. Karma will serve you.

"The Friendly Ghost" (*STR8 violating social-distancing like @MF!?!)...
Disgusting scene.
She blocked and deleted me after that
@@83marceloait was meant to be
It’s such a great film that has so many lessons in it. As a viewer, seeing the little girl holding her doll at the doorway was eye opening because you just knew she was existing in a predatory world. You almost knew her fate because her parents were no where to be found, no caring.
Was it the first or second girl? I was blown away that a creep like Telly could ask for Darcy and her brother just sent her out…
This soundtrack changed my soul. I don't think a week passes I don't listen to it in its entirety since I bought it when it was released. I relate to this movie still, and I'm 44.
Justin Pierce would've been 44 years old in March of this year
I bought the soundtrack at 16 year old on dec 2 1995, and ended up taking acid for the first time later that night. That soundtrack was playing on repeat as I tripped in my bedroom with my best friend. To this day that is still one of the best nights of my life, and that soundtrack is deeply intertwined with my soul.
Artifacts wrong side of the tracks was sick
I Just Saw again today. Im 40 years old now, such great epic film that show our generation from the 90's. The good old dayz, mannnn i miss those days ❤️. Nice pic of your profile from Deftones, I Saw them on rock in Rio in 2001 😎
Thanks to that soundtrack I first heard Slint and have been ever since
This movie KIDS was in the mix of films that my parents showed me on the dangers of unprotected sex and how not to act as a teenager lol
BXG Thomas they should play this in highschool now. 😂😂
Bro this movie just inspired me to do drugs lmao
@Thedude 404 I'm 16 watched it yesterday for the first time. Unless the kid actually has behavioral issues i don't know why you would say it would encourage them as the movie is clearly set as a bad example.
@Thedude 404 drugs rape and std sharing isnt a good time
@Thedude 404 haha funny 👍
I saw this film unintentionally when i was younger(still a kid) from a babysitter who was watching it for some reason.... The first scene of the film shocked the hell out of me...But now, as an indie film maker at age 24, I think it's actually kind of brilliant as a come of age film for adults... Nothing against the filmmakers and actors, but i'll never watch it again... It has taught me a lot and enough of what i needed to know in my personal life and in the modern film industry.
Thank you guys...always...
MisterDevos lol there is no way u could have seen this movie.
This film encourages rape and rape culture.
First time I watch the film I was 13or14 yo. the 2 things who shocks me was the AIDS and the rape. Everything else was what we could see or live over several months or years living condensed into 1 day.
I was 16 in 1995, saw it. It was too close for comfort, it made me sick to my stomach.
too bad Justin couldn't be there :/ rip
Its one of the best movies Ive seen ever. Saw it first on MTV when I was 11 and I still watch it today at 25!
XXTALEN When the fuck was "KIds" on MTV!?
Haha, that surprises me too. Must have been heavily edited.
XXTALEN
If you saw it on MTV, you never saw it
@@LambertBowden56 lol
Dude, unless it was some European MTV affiliate, there's no way you saw Kids on American television outside of maybe HBO.
Wow, Leo Fitzpatrick looks so grown up and sounds so mature in comparison to Telly from KIDS ;)
Yet his voice is undeniable -- just like with so many friends and acquaintances I've had over the last 29 years since seeing the movie as a 10 year old kid, right before I delved into the same world depicted in the film, albeit here in Little Rock, AR.
RIP Justin Pierce, RIP Harold Hunter
for it's time it had such a documentary feel to it that it literally didn't cross my mind too often that these were kids acting...also even though it is a cautionary tale there's this euphoric free vibe that's captured in the summer of 90's NYC that was raw but child like in a good way...if that makes sense....regardless I'm sure I speak for the ladie's who have met jerks like Telly. lol...great film.
SoJustCool exactly..this film was raw..and spoke to us kids in that era no matter where you lived..it truly felt like a documentary
They were not acting, Hamilton Harris the kid that rolled up the blunt said he couldn't do that scene using fake weed so he actually rolled a d smoked a real blunt and he also said he acted as himself in the film so no acting required.
These days, you feel like you're being watched, and seconds away from being recorded.
So blessed to be born in '74. Generation X never ages. All rage. The soundtrack to KIDS changed my soul.
Sick Of It All livE 78 here.
Sick Of It All livE ‘68 here
Sick Of It All livE ‘02 here.
Yup so true born 78
I have it on vinyl
1 of the best films ever, that's why it holds up, classic ✊🏻
it's also very interesting how the film from a visual standpoint (even though unintentionally) is the precursor for how a lot of us document our lives constantly today through social media.
Interesting perspective.
2:39 You can see the pain and loss RIP Boys
It would really be cool to see Justin alive, older, and to hear his impressions of the movie and the current teenager generation.
watch we were once kids documentary. you'll know the real deal. this panel is brooklyn elitists badly revising the true nature of the filming experience. this is gaslighting, yo.
This movie in my opinion should have been part of the sex Ed curriculum in school. After watching it I went to my little sisters room gave it to her and said you don't have to say anything to me afterwards just watch this movie and understand the mindset of guys who are just looking to use you and how easy it is to make a life changing decision you can't come back from. Two hours later she knocked on my door with emotion in her eyes and just said thank you. We've never spoken about it again. But I know she understood.
I read an article somewhere that I guess the guy who played Telly was bullied growing
up for this movie and didn’t lose his virginity until his first wife because girls wouldn’t even go near him , seems like a nice guy tho
I first watched this when I was 14. I watched it again today for the second time and I’m now 22, way more disturbed as an adult
i saw this movie my freshman year in college for the first time. i still remember exactly where i was watching it and with who.
The movie came out when I was 14yo seemed to real I remember thinking it was real sooooo gritty and raw! The Acting was impeccable tooo good!
This movie had a huge impact on my life.
I really like this movie.some scenes reminds me of old times.
I saw this film at an indie theater In SF in 1995. I remember how much it wasn't what I was expecting & how impactful it was.
Everyone did so good to be so young like that. It felt real
I'm 30 , was like 8 when this came out, prolly the same age as the little kids smoking on the couch in the movie . I grew up on long island taking the train to skate in nyc as a teen and this is one of my all time fav movies. didn't see it until I was like 18 tho
Animal Machine1987 i’m also 30, I grew up in NY then moved to Long Island when i was 20 lol i watched this movie when I was 12
Such an amazing movie. I was 18 when it came out. So this movie really resonated with me
Chloe looks very uncomfortable, and guarded. There's something behind that!!!
Agree, theres some rumors about what went on behind the scenes during shooting the movie, I'm not gonna mention it but the fact Justin hanged himself always seemed odd to me. Very sad if its true.
@@jellybeanz1989 apparently he hanged himself because his wife cheated on him :(
, late to the party.... but, shes always like that when she's not in front of a camera acting. Shes super shish and has awkward body language.
I'm sure parts of this may've been strange to her, maybe even difficult, but all I know is, she looks like this at 98% of every panel and regular interview, as well. I've only seen her loosen up thru the yrs., if she's had a couple drinks.
she has yet to forgive Telly
@@actuallyNo... True. I met her while filming Occupy Wall Street/May Day back in 2012. "Chloe Sevigny at Occupy Wall St." is the title of my video.
It's a little shakey because for some reason the anti-shake button was off on my camera that day. But you can see she feels completely out of her element there.
When i was a teen i saw the movie and really liked it. When i was in my twenties i watched it again and saw it indeed more as a cautionary tale. I mean i still loved the movie but i think i got it more and saw how bad the situation actually is yk
The part about kids wanting to move to NYC after seeing is it 100% true. Teens saw the movie and wanted the freedom those kids have.
They'd have to go back to the 90's.
this movie changed my life somehow
The reason the film resonated with me at 17 wasn’t just because I was a teenager and a skateboarder, it’s because the rawness of what is being shown is a big part of what’s happening in a lot of young people’s life. It’s even attractive. The brilliance to me is by glorifying, in a sense, the lifestyles portrayed the viewer goes along for the ride and learns the actual message of the whole experience. An audience will react to it according to their own personal biases but I consider it, almost, required viewing for teens and young adults. This is, was, and will be an important film. Bravo and thank you to all involved. RIP Justin and Harold. Legends never die.
rip harold hunter he was a really good skater
Still in my top 10 favourite films ever.
My teenage years almost to a tee.( Minus the HIV)😨
And hopefully minus the rape as well 😨
And also minus the rape 😨
The first time I saw this movie it was like WOW! I was shocked! Great movie.
That movie is crazy😂
Sc?:)
We need a Kids blu ray from Criterion.
This is so surreal. I fucking love Harmony Korine like he's family or something. That's crazy sounding. I live in london Ky, I used to drink cough medicine all day and try to recreate Harmony Korine movies in my little town. Dumb, but still.. huge fan. I got myself in all kinds of insane situations just pretending to be someone I wasn't. The Sigil of the Cloven Hoof Marks thy Path.
I feel the same way I love harmony too I bought all his films and almost all his books really want to meet him one day
I think of him like a real life Hobbit.
same. I got to meet him at the premier of Trash Humpers in 2010. Honestly i don't fan out but he's one of my favorite people ever.
this is fascinating. any plans to upload the full panel?
MrWilmerValderrama I second that point!
MrWilmerValderrama Hear, hear!
The thing about kids is it managed to capture the essence of the youth/skater scene, not just in New York but world wide. I was a part of it for a few years in high school and it’s very accurate. I also know a guy who raped 3 girls while they slept over the course of a year and was a witness to put him behind bars so the film is definitely a cautionary tale
the film doesn't seem like the 90s eventhough filmed then
i saw it then
i think they were more than just kids playing in the park.. i think the film wouldnt be anything without them, every single young person, they gave it all. the director brought the table, maybe the dishes- but the kids brought all the food to the table. they gave all. i dont know how much they got in reward. greetings from europe-
to this day, one of the best films ever made!
Man kids made me go back into skateboarding
I moved to the east village in 1995 and hung out at Washington square every day
I saw the film in the village as a teen. Great movie, growing up as a teenager in the 90's in nyc
Chloe Sevigny has aged like a fine wine. I never had any attraction to her until i saw her in the movie Palmetto.
The awkwardness of this is everything
Why isn't there more??????
Cos they're cheap. Why upload clips?...I mean, it's not a teaser since it was a live event that already passed when this video was uploaded. So just...film it all and upload it all...ugh. Oh well. Probably nonexistent never recorded footage. That sucks, because I really wanna see them all speak together since I never have. And Leo. They all looked so nervous together..
"Dont worry jenny its me Casper" hahahahahaha
When I saw rosaria in kids I fell in love with her and she’s still my movie crush to this day.
It's would awesome if they did an aftermath story of the characters such as a sequel.
I really would like a sequel. But I want the sequel to be like a horror movie, not fantasy horror I'm talking about real world horror. Based on the ending of the first movie you know the characters future is really fucked, so it would be interesting to watch a realistic real world type of horror movie based on the characters and I want it to take place a couple months or maybe 1 year after the first movie (which can be possible, you just have to recast everyone, try to pick actors who look 100% like the previous characters, and still make it take place in the 90's).
missourigreen051 that'd be dope.
That would be a bleak ass movie tho. If we were going by their characters; Telly would have either died from HIV or ended up on a sex offender registry. Casper would have either also died from HIV or lived a life of homelessness/drugs. And the rest of the characters probably got an STD too or lived a life of drugs and poverty.
It could be called ‘adults’
I would be curious about the aftermath of the rape scene. Jennie waking up without her trousers.
Was everybody so fucked up that nobody wouldn't say anything?
rip Justin, rip Harold, rip Mac
i was maybe 9 when this movie came out..
and i've seen it several times....each time get more wicked with age.
Kids kinda gives me the same vibe as Akira
Telly & Casper actually did look like bootlegged Dollar-Tree budget versions of Kaneda & Tetsuo from AKIRA.
the actor's generation
Rosario fucking Dawson man!! 😍
Larry Clark took advantage of the KIDS
I know it would never get passed but they should make a modern version of it.
I was just thinking that.
Liamggbb 123 It wouldn't be the same.
Ive always thought of this too. Honestly I think it would pass, only because ALOT more is accepted nowadays than it was back in 1995. If they do make a modern version, Im definitely going to watch. I just hope its just as raw as this movie was because thats what makes it so special in my opinion.
Not the same comparison but American Honey reminds me of this film in ways
agreed, teens nowadays are still reckless
love this film.
hearing justin and harold... man... that hit me.
Excellent!!!!
Telly character was prob my fav lol!
I've have never stopped loving to look at Chloe Sevigny for 30 years !
I livied with my grandma and uncle. We had to dumpster dive and i came across kids original vhs from that year. That was back in 2005. The movie freaked me out. I wish i still owned the original copy
big hit man
I'm not sure that it's great that it still holds up.
It's kind of scary as a parent now.
A friend of mines mother took us to the local indie theatre to see it. None of us had any idea what we were in for. Sadly, it was definitely a mirror to our lives at the time. (I was 15). Whether my friends mom knew it or not, I don't know..... I hope she didn't.
I met chloe she was very nice
They weren't in the recent docu!
I've been fascinated with the Safdie Bros films lately and I always sense a comparison with the style of Kids, Gummo, etc.
lol korine and the safdies are my favorite directors and i never made this connection
@@jamesq5831 if you haven't yet you should checkout Panic In Needle Park (Al Pacino's first feature role '71) and also Straight Time (Dustin Hoffman '78).
His voice hasn't changed
25 years now... wow...
1:22 this is funny because it’s not at all dated in fact we’ve come full circle.
I grew a up a millennial and I can relate to a lot of whats going on in this movie. Back in the day we were all just kids, not having a thing to worry about, meeting different people, having new experiences, trying different drugs and although not all of it was necessarily healthy but I am glad I didnt grew up in an era where all gen z kids do is stay at home, be depressed and suicidal, make tictoks and other social media content and play video games all day. Yes we were doing a lot wrong back in the day as well but at least we were happy.
Always finding a way to bash genz kids when millennials are the ones birthing em out lol
low IQ comment ! dont generalize many gen z are happy and not depressed
R.I.P Casper
How special that would have been to have been there
I wonder what happened to the girl who played Darcy, Yakira Peguero? She is in the last half of the movie.
i think she just didnt get any other big acting breaks. i mean she didnt have a very dynamic role... no real lines.
Just finished the movie last night, reminds me of being a teenager wishing kids my age had guidance to keep them away from that sleezy life
This film WAS my NYC. Definitely a cautionary tale, but it was real
DAR-CYYY!! DAR CYYYYYYY!
the film is very realistic scene by scene
where's the full Q&A? I hate snippets!
They must've been too lazy or shy (or cheap) to record it all lol that sucks right..why doesnt the cast meet up more for panel interviews?? I can't find a thing...
Salty Queen ikr
If I had the choice I would not have watched it, I stumbled across it on at a friend's apartment a couple years after its release, and I thought even beforehand knowing what it wS about just by theory, thought it incapslated kids of that generation. Especially being from NYS.
Nurse Claire had a crazy childhood
MORE!
Y’all were in a hardcore fd up film that made us think
Rip Justin Rip Harold
Crazy that Rosario is playing Ahsoka now.
Does anyone know about Yakira Peguero's whereabouts???
Whoa!
Way too short, we need the full recording
Kids was my life, but in Chicago.
I wish there was 100 more Larry Clark movies.
