Posted - 04/16/2004 : 22:28:14 As a native Baltimorean, I feel compelled to see them all. There was a festival here in L.A. about 10 or 12 years ago where they showed some of the early ones like Multiple Maniacs. I'd like to think I appreciate them more than non-Baltimorons because I have relatives from the city who could be characters in a Waters film. Like my great aunt in Brooklyn, Maryland, who still sports a beehive hairdo. She doesn't know what kitsch is-- that's just the hairstyle she settled on back in the '60s. Sit down and eat a couple dozen crabs with her and you'll know where John Waters is coming from. It's pretty cool. |

Posted - 04/16/2004 : 08:17:45 Oh yay, another Polyester fan! I never tire using the phrase, "Oh Francine! It's so ra-sha-sha!" Also, the late great Stiv Bators plays Bobo, so you can't beat that.
I haven't seen Pecker. I kind of lost track after Serial Mom.

Posted - 04/16/2004 : 07:55:03 "Polyester" is wonderful - my favorite. I think it is his best, but that's just me. I wasn't as keen on the others, but I like them a lot. I wouldn't recommend "Pecker".
I frequently become aware of myself sniffing things, and ferreting out clues to great success. That gives a nice ominous tinge to the everyday.

Posted - 04/16/2004 : 07:47:24 I loves me some Polyester. I also like Hairspray and Crybaby for how much he's able to get away with and still only get a PG rating--a triumph.

Posted - 04/16/2004 : 04:48:05 I've only seen Serial Mom. I liked it, but I hear its pretty diluted as far as his films go.
