Ep: 127 (70's John Waters Series Pt. 2) Pink Flamingos

49 years ago today, John Waters and his troop of Dreamlanders unleashed what is undoubtedly the filthiest movie in the world. Lead by a legendary star making performance from Divine who proves she will go to lengths unimaginable to achieve the perfect scene. Accompanied by her son Crackers (Danny Mills), glamorous traveling companion Cotton (Mary Vivian Pearce) and her mother The Egg Lady (Edith Massey), Divine will combat her greatest adversaries Raymond and Conny Marble (David Lochary and Mink Stole) in a shocking battle to prove who is truly the filthiest person alive! On its way to becoming one of the biggest midnight movies in history and one of the most memorable of cult films Pink Flamingos would challenge censorship around the globe (and usually losing), but that hasn’t stopped it from triggering, traumatizing, and tickling depraved audiences for nearly half a century, while managing to lose none of its shock value or hilarity over the years.
