What a treasure this interview is. Thank you for posting!
I love that John Waters is so refreshingly willing to engage Pop Culture while also groaning at its Golden Calves and taking delight in "impenetrable art movies." What a darling gem, and a great asset/agonist for civilization!
So happy to finally know that two of my biggest cinematic heroes actually met each other. I've always wondered about that.
I Love John Waters & his films
He is part of my misspent youth!!
Superb. I love Blue and own a copy. But to presented by JW is the best. I could listen to him all night. Derek Jarman.
John Waters might be the only person I don't get annoyed with for stating how he hates David Lean (but I understand it is still his opinion.)
I actually gasped and bristled when he said that as if it were a personal offence! I'm totally fine with drag queens eating excrement and advocating murder, but hating on David Lean has me clutching my pearls!
I'm not a Lean fan. Oliver Twist is great. The Bridge on the River Kwai and Lawrence of Arabia are fantastic war films. But for example Dr.Zhizago, Summertime or Brief Encounter (most over rated film of all time?) leave me cold and especially in the last case bored.
I think how he was funny about it made it that more enjoyable
@@desperatemohammedantheworl5833 I agree that Lean made some poor films, but somehow I think Waters may be exaggerating. He would probably like the griminess of Oliver Twist, and I don't see how he could totally hate Lawrence of Arabia, what with its beautiful visuals, memorable music, and flamboyant lead actor.
amazing interview
Gosh, a decent interviewer?!
Fascinating interview
Thanks uploader.
I adore this fabulous man! Great choice of films. I adore Boom! It so camp and crazy! ❤️☺️
Aids was a horrible disease, and the deaths still haunt me to this day. It was like the Vietnam war death count for the Gay community. On the news so many people would be announced to be dead or to have aids. It was so scary cuz we didn't know the how and why of the disease.
The comments below about the mans weight are juvenile.
I don't understand how a John Waters fan would fat shame. Have they seen his movies?
@@planetofether5462 There are assholes in every fan group. Except my fans, only the best nicest people follow me, tremendous people, I love my fans, they can do no wrong!
He isn't healthy, that is for sure.
I fat shame you!

John's outfit is gorgeous.
This man makes me so happy
John needs to see Rita Sue and Bob too. 😂😂😂
Blue was/ is shocking Blue.
Blue is beautiful. Blue is blue.
That first Kray's movie was great.
that will make your bull run
I'm conservative. And I love John Waters. I love that he's done his career his way. And he's freaking weirdo and he's truly living his best crazy, fabulous life.
Genius
I am a fan of many John Waters' films. Here, I am sorry to see him cut off the interviewer before he finishes the question.Relevant information can be lost and it's just plan impolite. Yes. Manners do matter!
Wah
To be fair, the interviewer was mediocre. He didn't engage with Waters much, mostly asked his written questions glumly. When Waters rightly defended BLUE on celluloid film and pointed out that the scratched film print could be was good if not more interesting than what they showed, the interviewer seemed peeved that Waters didn't confirm his prejudice for the digital version.
tea party
John Waters was great at bringing straight and gay people together through film imo. I think Blue is a great film, and should be seen in a cinema to keep your attention. For the record I'm straight but who cares.
Tilda has one of those flawless British complexions that clinique can't put in a jar. going to the oscars without make-up is an option...
emma duncan I like her and agree I just think she’s very pleased with Tilda as well.
I don't think teabagger was a word that they ever self-applied. It was just an easy insult to attach to the Tea Party.
I like Hairspray the eighties I don't like to travel female trouble this stinks really stinks unlock it and pull it not for kids Hairspray with John Travolta Wiz Khalifa
He’s being interviewed by a Reddit power user?
You’re such a hack

Divine approved
Hahaha fatty Boomsticks
What is the name of the walrus sitting next to him?
not very nice !
That's a gratuitously nasty comment.
Fat-shaming...on a John Waters vid. You don't do irony, no?
That’s rude and uncalled for.
Justin Johnson
That thing must be moved on wheels ! (any relation to Orson Welles ?)
this settles it
black is not slimming
sohow soon bad but funny as hell
There are limits to its power - this gent is several of those limits.
my heart breaks that a man can be that huge...…..sad
Don't worry. His heart will probably break before yours does.
Then your heart must break every time you look in the mirror, beenie
