John Waters says he agrees with not harming animals during production. I wonder, as someone who's seen Pink Flamingoes, when in his career he started to feel this way? Of all the things in that movie, that's the one thing I always fast forward through.
I love this film more than most cause hampden was my nieborhood for all my life until I left at 19 so seeing all my sights and those places where I walked is always nice to revisit even if it's just on a TV and hairspray is a good watch also
we love ya, John. I was trying to think about whether or not I'd consider John Waters a "genius". and I thought "Not based on his movies, no." and then I started to think about what made him unique in our culture and it was basically everything. there's nobody like John Waters - he's exclusively himself. and he's kept this up for going back decades. half a century. here he talks about weird works of art. well, he's a work of art himself. everywhere he goes, that's where John Waters is. it's entirely local to only him. and that takes some sort of natural genius. has to.
Love, love, love this man….and imagine the GREATS he worked with! Divine, Edith Massey, Mink Stole….and sooooo many others including the “foot stomper” from Polyester who turned out to be super hot.
Protect this man at all cost
A director's films do not define what kind of a person they are. John Waters is a living proof of this.
That's debatable. It certainly reveals their true colors, to a degree. Any True Art does.
Huh?
Always a fun person listen to. Thanks Letterboxd! Shout out to Baltimore!
I've adored Mr. Waters' work since 1986! 💗
Full of Grace!!
Pecker is a movie that I have not thought about in years, but I remember liking it a lot.
the greatest to ever do it
i love him so much

Why is *Pecker* not at least on Blu-ray yet? It has a commentary track dating back to the laserdisc, which I used to have.
Pecker is definitely my favorite Waters film!

The story in Pecker is close to what could have happened in the New York art scene in the 60s and maybe 70s.
we love ya, John.

You are a national treasure.
❤️🙏🏿

There's a Mouse Hunt for adults?!
Waters has a unique I don't give a shit style. Watching some of his older films feels like committing a crime.
He was openly gay since the 60s you cant phase him
Imagine John Waters making a movie with Lloyd Kaufman.
Kind of a bummer but I hate seeing such a youthful rebel spirit get old :(
We need him forever!
The sound quality of the person asking the questions shouldn't be better than John.
one of the first movies I can really remember seeing was Cry Baby. I've been hooked ever since.
I took my mother tat wanted to met him when she was 82
Too bad I can’t spell. Sorry
💫✨🌟❤️🌟✨💫

He draws it! 🥸
Sanest person on earth nowadays
You've never seen rats have sex? Did you not see Bad Boys 2? Although that would come out 5 years later.
