Vincent Gallo shocked the 2003 Cannes Film Festival with this highly personal film that he wrote, directed, produced, edited, photographed, and stars in. Oscar Nominee Chloe  Sevigny gained notoriety in  for an unsimulated fellatio scene in film with  then-boyfriend Vincent Gallo. After the film's release, the William Morris Agency dropped her as a client, claiming the scene made her unmarketable. But she quickly signed with another agency and continued her career.
