Patty Hearst's been in other John Waters movies. Cecil B. Demented was garbage, I hope this is better. That Selma Blair picture bodes well (if you are a monster of sleaze, as I am).

i keep seeing the trailer for this every saturday at the midnight movie series i go to, and the somewhat implied visual of tracy ullman doing the hokey pokey and straddling a bottle up the butt is just too amazing haha.

Maybe this is just a reverse psychology ploy for Selma Blair. As far as I can see, she's absolutely flat in real life. Looks like it has high comedy potential with a ranchy edge though. I would rent it.

5 of Ms. Hearst's 7 film credits are Waters' movies.
(Incidentally, she was kidnapped from the apartment next door to one of my old domiciles.)

I saw that picture and I was like, "Oh my god, is that ME??" But it wasn't, it was Selma Blair. It was hilarious.

Thanks Tamara, I grew up in many countries and missed that bit of Americana.

Oh my god, I love it! After seeing Hairspray on Broadway, I have a renewed intrested in John Waters. Pink Flamingos made me sick, oh the eggs...
