Movie Reviews of Hairspray

Movie Review: rock on
Summary: 5 Stars

It was great to be able to see the original after seeing the movie with Travolta. I had just seen the touring play Hair Spray and was really glad the 1960's version was available through Amazon.

Summary of Hairspray

John waters glorious teen sendup follows tracy tumblad a chunky teen who dreams of appearing on the local tv dance program. Studio: New Line Home Video Release Date: 09/26/2006 Starring: Ricki Lake Run time: 94 minutes Rating: Pg

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
