John Waters and the Art of Obscenity

Mar 11, 2024

Waters and his unruly band of misfits he calls Dreamlanders practically invented shock humour. And their "bad taste trilogy" is every bit as grotesque, vile, offensive, and obscene, as it promises. In fact, Waters' films are so completely and proudly devoid of morals that they sometimes verge on unforgivable. So why do we consider them art?
