John Waters - This Filthy World
An icon of the 20th century, famed for films such as Hairspray, Serial Mom, Pink Flamingos, Cry Baby and Polyester, This Filthy World is John Waters� one-man show, a "vaudeville" act that celebrates the film career and tastes of the man William Burroughs once called "The Pope of Trash". Focusing in on Waters' early negative artistic influences and his fascination with true crime, exploitation films, fashion lunacy, and the extremes of the contemporary art world, this joyously devious monologue elevates all that is trashy in life into a call to arms to "filth followers" everywhere.

Welcome to John's filthy world
Anybody who has ever been to one of Waters' talks will know what to expect from this hilarious talk about his career to date. He talks about his films, the charcters he has worked with in them and some of his obsessions; from trash cinema to bizarre sexual practices.
The director keeps the camera trained on Waters,.interspersed with just a few brief cut-aways to the audience. The pace of Waters delivery and his wonderful stories ensure that boredom never sets in. Terrific and very very funny. -

Expected so much, but got so little...
I have never watched this commedian before, but like dark humour.... i really didint like this. THis guy thinks he is funny, but he isnt. Just a weird looking old bloke that tells stories, if i wanted to see that... id speak to my parents....
Try to stay away from this, seriously.. i am trying to save you from 1 hour 25mins ish of you watching a screen thinking ''what the hell, rish was right''
you have been warned... -
