    They showed Pink Flamingos at my college and I've been a John Waters fan ever since. RIP Divine.

    John was cute here, I went to see polyester when it came out, I was 17 and loved it. I introduced a lot of my friends to John Waters films back in the 80's.

    I’ve never seen Pink Flamingo and now after watching the special on the CBS Sunday Morning show, I’m really curious on where I could watch the film.
    Does anyone know how to watch this film? ❤✌🏼🥰

    don't see why the blue and gold label. makes me think boring sell-out CBS days. since I knew Divine's passing, it occurred to me this would be early NBC. eleven thirty central time, I was in Omaha then. old. season one, no band yet Andy Kaufman slap times

    For my money, the titans of TV are Lorne Michaels and Dave Letterman. So original, so timeless, ‘70s SNL and ‘80s Late Night still hold up, still seem original. Most TV seems BS comparatively.

  • @Broadwaybuff-pi1qg
    @Broadwaybuff-pi1qg 4 месяца назад +1

    Letterman was the worst possible choice to interview these two hilarious and edgy artists. He always seemed uncomfortable around any men who were even remotely effeminate or different, and his fratboy comedy style always mocked these kinds of people, as if he and all other "regular" folk were laughing at them behind their backs.

    I would want financial success for Waters, and hoped Divine had every success that was deserving. BUT, if their movies forever stayed underground, that's fine by me. The whole of the Dreamlanders landscape is actually TOO good for the great unwashed. I will bask in these movies and love them forever! Divine, you are SORELY, sorely missed.
