Director: John Waters
Country: USA
Year: 1972
Length: 100 minutes
Language: English

Hairspray is probably Waters best known film, but the blatant Pink flamingos is his most notorious. This film has been a breakthrough for Waters and Divine who have cooperated since 1968. The world was invited to meet, of actually forced to meet the character Divine. Born as Harris Glen Milstead, Divine goes through life as a woman. Extreme make-up, obesity, exceptional rude behaviour en and violent behaviour characterise her. She excels at stealing steaks at the supermarket.

Pink flamingos is exclusively inhabited by extravagant characters, perverse outcasts and trailer trash, like Divine and her 500 pound mother who lives in a box loves chickens. Together they want to make a claim to the title of the filthiest people alive. Their only competition is a freaked out couple with a fetish for feet selling aborted babies to lesbian couples. Animal activists can hardly complain about the killing of chickens in Pink flamingos as they are freed from the bio-industry, get sex for the first time and get eaten by the cast and crew, as says John Waters in his interviews.
