A rare documentary on the filmmaker John Waters, of such movies as Multiple Maniacs, Pink Flamingos, and Hairsparay.

About an hour, quality is poor I guess, looks like a vhs source, nothing that is distracting.

Quote:
The Movie

“Divine was my close friend and fearless muse. Who else could convincingly turn from teenage delinquent to mugger, prostitute, unwed mother, child abuser, fashion model, nightclub entertainer, murderess, and jailbird? All in the same movie? That’s why I am giving my full blessing to a new documentary feature film, I AM DIVINE, to be directed by award-winning filmmaker Jeffrey Schwarz.” — John Waters

Hello, moviegoers!

We are beyond excited to present to you a brand new documentary about the most beautiful woman in the world… the filthiest person alive… the legendary, the outrageous, the one and only… DIVINE!

I AM DIVINE is a definitive biographical portrait of Harris Glenn Milstead, a.k.a. Divine, and honors him in just the way he always craved — as a serious artist and immortal star. Divine’s entire story is told, from his early days as a misfit youth in Baltimore through his rise to infamy as a cult superstar. Like the characters he portrayed in numerous films, Divine was the ultimate outsider.
He transformed himself from a bullied schoolyard fat kid to a larger-than-life personality and underdog royalty as his alter-ego Divine. Divine stood up for millions of gay men and women, female impersonators, punk rockers, the ample figured, and countless other socially ostracized people. With a completely committed in-your-face style, he blurred the line between performer and personality and revolutionized pop culture.

As outrageous and fun as its subject, I AM DIVINE combines movie clips, rare home movies and photos, television appearances and live performance footage with brand new interviews with John Waters, Ricki Lake, Mink Stole, Tab Hunter, Holly Woodlawn, Michael Musto, Bruce Vilanch, mother Frances Milstead (who provided her final interview just months before she passed away), and many more of Divine’s family, friends, colleagues, and devotees.

Quote:
John Waters made bad taste perversely transcendent with the forever shocking counterculture sensation Pink Flamingos, his most infamous and daring cinematic transgression. Outré diva Divine is iconic as the wanted criminal hiding out with her family of degenerates in a trailer outside Baltimore while reveling in her tabloid notoriety as the “Filthiest Person Alive.” When a pair of sociopaths (Mink Stole and David Lochary) with a habit of kidnapping women in order to impregnate them attempt to challenge her title, Divine resolves to show them and the world the true meaning of the word “filth.” Incest, cannibalism, shrimping, and film history’s most legendary gross-out ending—Waters and his merry band of Dreamlanders leave no taboo unsmashed in this gleefully subversive ode to outsiderhood, in which camp spectacle and pitch-black satire are wielded in an all-out assault on respectability.

The post John Waters – Pink Flamingos (1972) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

Quote:
A movie like Female Trouble (1974) could be most easily classified as a comedy, but that is selling it short. “Comedy” doesn’t capture the specific satiric edge, the desperate shout, the exaggerated depravity of this film. It’s a loud, abject, offensive, and joyful declaration of self-determination and identity in the face of a world that has no use for anyone outside the norm.

Characters like Dawn Davenport and company are so far outside of the realm of acceptability that they can only exist in response to such a restrictive, repressed society. Dawn is a violent, abusive, dangerously self absorbed wannabe celebrity, and she is enabled in her depravity and her penchant for crime and murder by other outcasts. This community of rejects comes together to celebrate her because she is so defiantly herself in the face of a culture that doesn’t want to pay attention to people like her. So she and those around her force people to pay attention and Dawn is the only one who is able to make it through without sacrificing who she is, whatever the results.

And the results are hilarious. Dawn, like the rest of the movie, is gaudy to a hysterical extreme, and much of that is owed to Divine’s central performance. Divine’s greatness cannot be overstated. The sneering smile, hoarse voice, and imposing figure of Divine have such a strong onscreen presence that Waters’ camera cannot look away. All these elements coalesce into an outrageous manifesto against the very concept of good taste.

Coming out shortly after the Stonewall Riots and the birth of the modern queer liberation movement, the early films of John Waters are shocking in their total rejection of the straight world. Rather than make respectable films about the noble struggles of being queer, John Waters seems more interested in marking out his own territory. The film is dirty in every way, from the sets to the content. No part of it fits what might conventionally be called beautiful. It’s a declaration of queer separatism. Waters is not interested in making movies that can be bought and sold and admired by his oppressors. Instead, he is shouting that they can keep their polite society because queers don’t want any part of it. We’re having too much fun being beautiful and depraved.

Quote:
For his first studio picture, filth maestro John Waters took advantage of his biggest budget yet to allow his muse Divine to sink his teeth into a role unlike any he had played before: Baltimore housewife Francine Fishpaw, a heroine worthy of a Douglas Sirk melodrama. Blessed with a keen sense of smell and cursed with a philandering pornographer husband, a parasitic mother, and a pair of delinquent children, the long-suffering Francine turns to the bottle as her life falls apart—until deliverance appears in the form of a hunk named Todd Tomorrow (vintage heartthrob Tab Hunter). Enhanced with Odorama technology that enables you to scratch and sniff along with Francine, Polyester is one of Waters’ most hilarious inventions, replete with stomach-churning smells, sadistic nuns, AA meetings, and foot stomping galore.
