John Waters, Stand-Up Comic
If you've never spent "An
Evening with John Waters," listening to the hilarious writer-director do
stand-up comedy about his life and career, then you've missed out on one
of his many talents.
Thankfully, the new documentary This Filthy World captures the
Pope of Trash at his brilliant best.
Directed by Jeff Garlin (best known as Larry David's pudgy sidekick on
Curb Your Enthusiasm), Filthy features Waters talking
about the many high and low points of his career, with dishy tales about
stars like Johnny Depp, Kathleen Turner, Ricki Lake, and Tab Hunter,
alongside moving and bizarre accounts of working with the legendary
Divine.
