Movie Reviews of Hairspray
Movie Review: Hairspray- PSSSST
Summary: 5 Stars
I like the movie Hairspray. The first movie with Ricki Lake, Of course. It takes me back to an earlier time, one in which I can wholeheartedly identify. I love all the songs and the teen dance show reminds me of one here in my area in the late fifties and early sixties.
Summary of Hairspray
Comedy in which two \""girls\"" compete for the star position on Baltimore's Corny Collins dance show.Genre: Feature Film-Comedy
Rating: PG
Release Date: 7-SEP-2004
Media Type: DVD
John Waters made his bid for PG respectability with this enjoyably trashy comedy about the racial integration of a teen dance show on Baltimore television in the early '60s. Waters, as always, makes a virtue of junk culture and the powerful emotional forces it can represent as kids vie to get on the show. Meanwhile, a parade of former stars (Pia Zadora, Debbie Harry, Sonny Bono) and pseudostars (Divine, Ricki Lake) cross the screen, playing freakish characters absorbed by thoughts of fame. (Waters himself turns up as a weirdo psychiatrist.) This transitional film for Waters is rough going at times and not as interesting or funny as his later features Cry-Baby and Serial Mom, but it's worth a look. --Tom Keogh
