Jordan covered the Jackass sequel’s red-carpet premier last night, and it got me thinking about the franchise. Sometimes I think it’s awful. Often, I think it’s the (grotesque) height of New Sincerity.
As I read the small Times review of the new film, and realized it includes a prank (placing a leech on an eyeball) that may well be an allusion to the surrealist classic Le Chien Andelou.
Your thoughts?
