Product Description
Divine is Dawn Davenport: teenage delinquent, unwed mother, working girl, and murderer. Follow her outrageous and violence-filled life, and learn why "crime is beauty," in John Waters' shock comedy. With David Lochary, Cookie Mueller, Mink Stole, and Edith Massey as Aunt Ida. Uncut version; 98 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English Dolby Digital Surround, Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English; audio commentary.
John Waters expands the definition of female trouble in this mutant tribute to good-girl-gone-bad drive-in melodramas. The girl is, of course, cross-dressing cult icon Divine, Waters's plus-sized muse. Divine is at her most gleefully outrageous as teenage brat Dawn Davenport, who runs away from home and into a life of wanton hedonism all because she didn't get cha-cha heels for Christmas. Almost immediately she's molested by a sleazy motorcycle thug (also played by Divine--is this Waters's idea of "love thyself"?), but she doesn't let motherhood interfere with her plans of stardom and turns herself into an unlikely fashion statement in an apocalyptic fashion show. Waters's fourth feature, a follow-up to the midnight movie hit Pink Flamingos, is just as cinematically primitive and even more gleefully vulgar, right down to the electric climax of Dawn's road to everlasting fame. --Sean Axmaker
