Female Trouble
John Waters, Baltimore’s Prince of Puke, returns for another riotously anarchic and decadently disgusting blast of scuzz. Divine plays Dawn Davenport, a delinquent bad-girl on a perverse path to Female Trouble in this epic ode to crime and beauty that tackles all the taboos, from pregnancy and prostitution to capital punishment and cha-cha heels.
“Where do these people come from? Where do they go when the sun goes down? Isn’t there a law or something?” – Rex Reed
“The exuberance and energy of genius… Insanely logical, horribly funny.” – Interview Magazine
“The resulting feast of sex, violence, cruelty, and frivolity mocks sentimental notions of family, work, and love, and turns the egomaniacal furies of pop culture inside out.” – Richard Brody, New Yorker
