No lie, one of the movies that changed my life.
Today
marks the fiftieth anniversary of the general release of PINK
FLAMINGOS, the third feature by legendary groundbraking writer/director
John Waters, and I shared it at a screening at my friend Lexi's place.
Including myself, there were eight attendees, three of whom had not seen
the film. I was somewhat disappointed to see the reaction of the newbs,
which was far more reserved than I would have thought. Too bad they did
not see it before years of being able to watch any kind of filth
imaginable fro the privacy of a laptop. Anyway, when I asked "Well?" at
the end, Charlie, the hostess's little brother, simply said "Of all the
films I have seen, this one of them."
Consuming a chocolate Ho-Ho, in honor of the film's legendary ending.
The classic ending.
