Spring Breakers

Spring Breakers is a thriller that was released in the United States in 2013. It was written and directed by Harmony Korine. The film opens up by establishing the lives of four close friends at college, who all live in the same dorm room. With the semester almost over, the girls are bored. They want to have fun and be adventurous. Luckily, they realize that spring break is just around the corner. However, they do not have enough money to make a trip down to Florida. Thus, it is their goal to raise enough money to have a memorable spring break. The idea they come up with is to rob a convenience store. They pull it off successfully. Next thing you know they leave campus and head to Florida. When they get down there they party too hard and get arrested for using drugs. Luck finds their way again as they are bailed out by a strange drug-dealing gangster named Alien (played by James Franco). For unknown reasons, he takes the four girls home and acts as their mentor. The eccentric and uncontrollable Alien is just the type of person the girls want to party with, but he will quickly prove to be too much for them.
