==Films== ===''Kids''=== {{main|Kids (film)}} In ''Kids'' (1995), his most widely known film, boys portrayed as being as young as 12 are shown to be casually drinking alcohol and using other drugs. The film received an [[Motion Picture Association of America|NC-17]] rating,<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.moviemaker.com/magazine/issues/43/bully.html|newspaper=Moviemaker|issue=43|author=Travis Crawford|title=Interview to Larry Clark on Bully }}</ref> and was later released without a rating when Disney bought Miramax. ===Other work=== ''[[Ken Park]]'' is a more sexually and violently graphic film than ''Kids'', including a scene of [[auto-erotic asphyxiation]] and [[ejaculation]] by an emotionally rattled high-school boy (portrayed by [[James Ransone]], then in his early 20s). In Australia, ''Ken Park'' was banned for its graphic sexual content and a protest screening held in response was immediately shut down by the police. Australian film critic [[Margaret Pomeranz]], co-host of ''[[At the Movies (Australian TV series)|At the Movies]]'', was almost arrested for screening the film at a hall.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2003/07/04/1057179133410.html |title=Ken Park ban 'sadly archaic' |publisher=theage.com.au |date=July 4, 2003 |access-date=2010-09-22}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2003/07/03/1057179099732.html |title=theage.com.au |publisher=The Age |date=July 4, 2003 |access-date=2010-09-22}}</ref> The film was not released in the United States, but Clark says that it was because of the producer's failure to get releases for the music used.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nerve.com/content/the-nerve-interview-larry-clark|title=The Never Interview: Larry Clark|publisher=Never|date=September 20, 2006|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131227113600/http://www.nerve.com/content/the-nerve-interview-larry-clark|archive-date=December 27, 2013|df=mdy-all}}</ref> In 2015, Clark collaborated alongside notable skateboard and clothing brand, [[Supreme (brand)|Supreme]], to celebrate the 20th anniversary of ''Kids'' with a collection of decks, T-shirts, and sweatshirts that feature stills from the iconic film. The collection was released on May 21, 2015, in Supreme's New York, Los Angeles, and London locations and on May 23 in its Japan location.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.complex.com/style/2015/05/supreme-kids-20th-anniversary-collection|title=Supreme Celebrates the 20th Anniversary of 'Kids' With a Special Collection Dropping This Week|website=Complex}}</ref> Clark has won the top prizes at the [[Cognac Festival du Film Policier]] (for ''Another Day in Paradise''), the [[Stockholm Film Festival]] (for ''Bully'') and the [[Rome Film Festival]] (for ''Marfa Girl''). He has also competed for the [[Golden Palm]] (''Kids'') and [[Golden Lion]] (''Bully'').
