Book Description
"Finally, in the best Mickey Rooney-Judy Garland tradition, you can now put on my movies like little plays in the privacy of your own home. Some rainy Saturday afternoon, just call all your friends together & yell, 'Hey, kids, let's do Pink Flamingos!' Every hideous word of these films is right here in black & white, so you don't have to rely on the vague memory of some midnight show you staggered into years ago in a questionable state of mind. In the light of day, on the printed page, these 'celluloid atrocities' may seem even ruder than you remember. Say the dialogue out loud, even yell it like the characters do-you'll feel better. Do Divine's psychotic monologues & feel the tensions & distractions of everyday life melt away." -From the author's Introduction. Trash Trio contains the word-for-word, true-to-god, uncensored scripts of John Waters' classic cult films Pink Flamingos & Desperate Living-and the never-produced, never-before-published sequel to Pink Flamingos, the stillborn baby at the back of Waters closet, Flamingos Forever. "He remains the visionary of camp & the den mother of the bizarre." -Village Voice "Waters cultivates sleaze like a rare orchid..." -Baltimore Sun

Pages : 336
Book Description
It's 1986, and what should have been the greatest summer of Nate Bradford's life goes sour when his parents suddenly divorce. Now, instead of spending his senior year in his hometown of Austin, Texas, he's living with his father in Warren, Wyoming, population 2,833 (and Nate thinks that might be a generous estimate). There's no swimming pool, no tennis team, no mall--not even any MTV. The entire school's smaller than his graduating class back home, and in a town where the top teen pastimes are sex and drugs, Nate just doesn't fit in. Then Nate meets Cody Lawrence. Cody's dirt-poor, from a broken family, and definitely lives on the wrong side of the tracks. Nate's dad says Cody's bad news. The other kids say he's trash. But Nate knows Cody's a good kid who's been dealt a lousy hand. In fact, he's beginning to think his feelings for Cody go beyond friendship. Admitting he might be gay is hard enough, but between small-town prejudices and the growing AIDS epidemic dominating the headlines, a town like Warren, Wyoming, is no place for two young men to fall in love.

Tendencies
Author: Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick
Publisher: Duke University Press
ISBN: 0822381869
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
Tendencies brings together for the first time the essays that have made Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick "the soft-spoken queen of gay studies" (Rolling Stone). Combining poetry, wit, polemic, and dazzling scholarship with memorial and autobiography, these essays have set new standards of passion and truthfulness for current theoretical writing. The essays range from Diderot, Oscar Wilde, and Henry James to queer kids and twelve-step programs; from "Jane Austen and the Masturbating Girl" to a performance piece on Divine written with Michael Moon; from political correctness and the poetics of spanking to the experience of breast cancer in a world ravaged and reshaped by AIDS. What unites Tendencies is a vision of a new queer politics and thought that, however demanding and dangerous, can also be intent, inclusive, writerly, physical, and sometimes giddily fun.

Land of a Thousand Balconies
Author: Jack Stevenson
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781900486231
Category : B films
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
Most books about B-movies are straight-forward genre guides, biographies or encyclopaedias. Not this one. In addition to chapters on film showmen, gimmicks and cult films, Land of a Thousand Balconies documents those incidents and unusual film happenings which author Jack Stevenson has -- over the past fifteen years -- been privy to in his various capacities as show organiser, tour arranger, festival jury member and projectionist-for-hire. Land of a Thousand Balconies also focuses on movie theatres and renegade exhibition spaces, lamenting on the disappearing 'sense of place' that is such an integral part of the movie-going experience. Here the reader is invited to tour a diversity of venues -- from the notorious old grindhouses of San Francisco, the home-made store-front cinemas of Seattle and NY, through to the underground film clubs of Europe. Book jacket.
