Citations
Self - Friend & Production Designer: He'd do things like a huge, catered party at the Belvedere Hotel for all his friends. He loved being bigger than life, showing off.
John Waters: And then he would send the bill to his parents, but rip up the bill so his parents didn't know! They never saw the bills. He'd get the mail every day and just rip up all the bills until his parents' credit cards were cut off. And he would write bad checks. And the police busted him and took him home, and he said to his parents, "I did not do that.'' Just such a liar, right ? And they made him take a lie-detector test - and he passed. That's acting.

Crédits fous
The closing credits list certain people as "Perverts," "Maniacs" and "Sh*tkickers," among other designations.

A fun, educational watch

Pure curiosity lead me to this one and it was really worth the watch. Maybe I am incredibly stupid, but I never knew that John Waters wrote Hairspray and had Divine play the original Edna Turnblad! This is like any other bio-documentary; lots of interviews, some old footage; a journey through the life of someone meaningful. I enjoyed it, but this is one for a more specific audience. After seeing this, I will be adding quite a few films to my watchlist...
