"The world of the heterosexual is a sick and boring one!" some films provide their own review.

Branson ReeseAug 11, 2018"If they're smart they're queer, and if they're stupid they're straight." Heterosexuals never looked so disgusting.

Went down a rabbit hole and watched (I think) every John Waters interview I could find on Youtube and even read a few chapters of his book ‘Shock Value’ thinking that’d prepare me for one of his films. That said, nothing can prepare you for your first John Waters film.

Dawn would definitely make “being a mother to an autistic child is so hard” videos
ChrysanJun 15, 2018Was lucky enough to see the new Criterion 4K restoration projected on the big screen at the Provincetown Film Festival. John Waters did a short q&a afterwards. Love this film. And the restoration is gorgeous. So much detail in the image that it was like watching the film…

ANDROMEDA is "meh" onFemale TroubleI dont know how to feel. Violated, yes. Confused, yes. But also, entertained in a morbid way. Definitely not watching this again but Im a bit glad i watched it once? This was certainly a movie, and i was not expecting to see that many male members.

This is probably my new favorite John Waters movie. I love the tone he sets with the opening song, sung by Divine herself. Also, keep an eye out for Divine out of drag.
