When... Based on the book by Eddie Little, director Larry Clark's follow-up to KIDS (1995) is a gritty portrayal of a makeshift family of professional thieves on a cross-country crime spree. When small-time hoods Mel and Sid (Woods and Griffith) adopt two young hoodlums named Bobby and Rosie (Kartheiser and Gregson Wagner) in order to teach them the ropes of crime for the gain of cash and narcotics, Mel and Sid don't realize the implications of taking inexperienced workers under their wing. They soon realize, however, the dire consequences it can have. Griffith's understated performance as the heroin-addicted "den mother" was rightfully critically-acclaimed. [More]
