Pink Flamingos

Director John Waters | USA | 1972 | 93:00


Saturday - Session 3 - 8.30pm

Pink Flamingos follows the adventures of Babs Johnson (Divine), a fat, style-obsessed criminal who lives in a trailer with her egg-loving mentally ill mother Edie, her delinquent son Crackers, and her traveling companion Cotton. Soon, their strange idyllic life in a trailer is threatened and turned upside down when an eccentric couple, Raymond and Connie Marble, “two jealous perverts”, try to seize Divine’s title of “filthiest person alive”. John Waters’ infamous transgressive cult comedy is on for one night only at the Sydney Underground Film Festival for the first and only time ever - in Odorama. With John Water’s permission the festival has created a whole new sense sensation for Pink Flamingos as Divine deserves to be seen and smelled! Bad Taste has never smelt so good! This film is a joyous rollercoaster ride of depravity the whole family can enjoy!

“One of the most vile, stupid and repulsive films ever made” Daily Variety
