Desperate Living (1977) ****

John WatersDesperate Living (1977) is slightly less offensive than his opus, 1972's Pink Flamingos (review), but almost as much fun. Divine's presence is sorely missed. Mink Stole almost makes up for his absence by stealing every scene she's in (including one of the best line deliveries ever in any film) but Edith Massey gives her a run for her money. I love the Dreamlanders and I love this film. A trashterpiece.
