The Pope of Trash, the Prince of Filth, the Grand Poobah of Perversion,
John
Waters has been subverting cinema ever since he first turned
a camera on his friends to make Hag in a Black Leather Jacket
in 1964. His films with transvestite superstar Divine merrily
trampled across the boundaries of taste, cleverly skewering the
tedious complacency of mainstream culture while treating audiences
to the sight of lecherous lobsters and the consumption of genuine
poodle poop. More recently, Waters has softened his approach somewhat,
creating movies that sneak into multiplexes and even earn PG ratings.
But rest assured: even at their most benign, John
Waters's films are a shot in the arm for audiences bored with
the ordinary.
