βThe movie that I did that did the worst was called Desperate Living β¦ It was a fairy tale about lesbian anguish and mental illness and politics and corruption in a town called Mortville. When this movie came out, lesbian groups stopped it from being shown in Boston at the Orson Welles Cinema where all my movies played at the time by saying βHow dare a man make a comedy about lesbians?β Well, today itβs the movie that lesbian groups bring on colleges all the time to raise money!β
/ John Waters quoted in the 2006 film This Filthy World /
Released on this day (27 May 1977) in Baltimore: John Watersβ ultra-twisted punky black comedy Desperate Living (1977). Tagline: βIt isnβt very pretty β¦β. Re-titled Punk Story in Italy, it's one of Watersβ comparatively lesser-known gems (probably because his usual muse and leading lady - three hundred pound drag queen Divine - isn't in it). Lambasted by Variety as βamateur night on the psycho wardβ and described by Waters himself as βthe worst of all my films. And itβs the grimmest!β, the genuinely nasty Desperate Living has something to offend everyone! Pictured: Susan Lowe (as Mole McHenry) and Liz Renay (as Muffy St Jacques). For many of us, this duo represents βrelationship goals.β
I need to stop quoting βkill everyone now, condone first degree murder, advocate cannibalism, eat shit! Filth is my politics, filth is my lifeβ because no one ever knows what Iβm referencing and I just get weird looks
