John Waters: This Filthy World

If anyone desires to know John Waters as a director, complete with a glimpse into his life growing up in Baltimore, this is indeed your best bet. John's desire to surprise vs shock people and have them confront their blind devotion to conventionality is discussed in this one-man show with humor, wit, and blazing intellect. He will have you squirming and laughing at the same time, but you will come away from the experience definitely knowing the true measure of the man. In addition, the extras on the DVD include an at-home interview where you'll meet Bill, his "son," as well as a question and answer period following his performance. A must-have for any John Waters fan!

I enjoyed the JOHN WATERS: THIS FILTHY WORLD dvd. Part story telling--part stand-up comedy, Waters discuses the inspiration behind his movies, his relationship with cast members Divine and Edith Massey(among others), and why he got into film making in the first place.Funny, intelligent, and off-the-wall John Waters is as colorful as his movies and he'll keep you entertained for the 86 minutes he's on stage.For special features there's a lengthy Q&A with the audience.

Who doesn't love John Waters?

If you are easily offended, don't watch John Waters: This Filthy World. If, on the other hand, you revel in delightful offensiveness, do not miss John Waters: This Filthy World. The stories about his parents, neighbors, fellow actors and more kept me hanging on his every word.The first time I saw a John Waters' film, I turned to my friend and stated, "I don't know who this guy is, but I can tell you he went to Catholic school." Well, as it turns out, I was absolutely correct. His reaction to the Church's comments about him just about made me choke with laughter.Everything about John Waters is just so genuine that you can't help but like him.

I never seem to get tired of this DVD. John Waters has some brilliant insight into culture. He has an unusual view of the world and he shares it well here. A must have for John Waters fans.

John Waters is a national treasure. His take on being a successful American is a tribute to his creativity and genius. Being different and successful is the American Dream.

hysterical and fascinating!this made me rent Polyester and Pink Flamingos(both of which i completely love!)i'd put This Filthy World up there with Delirious and Dressed to Kill,because my friends and I will be quoting it for years.

I saw him in person in Seattle and this DVD shows him as he lectures across America. I am a big fan of John Waters.

Fabulously unhinged and decidedly warped. How I miss his muse, Divine.

This DVD is suppose to be a lecture about the life and works about the infamous film director, John Waters.I have only seen John Waters on interviews and had a passing knowledge of his films. While watching interviews I always found him a funny and witty man. I bought the DVD and kept my fingers crossed that the same sense of humour would be transfer over. I shouldn't have worried, John tells the story about his childhood and his fascination with showbiz and movies; which continues to the struggles of making movies and the interesting characters he has meet on the way.For a film director, he does come across as a funny and charismatic story teller which would make the best stand ups green with envy.

Great
