Hello friends!

Here are some fun stories and details that I wasn't able to fit into my John Waters video last week, exclusive for Patreon. From Andy Warhol's films Kiss and Blow Job to Wakefield Poole's Boys in the Sand, the '70s were a fertile time for the work that John was doing in his movies. Too bad the Baltimore Police weren't so enthusiastic!

By the way -- I've heard that some Android users aren't able to watch the videos like these on mobile devices. Sorry about that! I've checked with Patreon and they say that it's a glitch on Vimeo's end that they're working on solving. In the mean time, here's a direct link, and please do let me know if you run into any issues so I can troubleshoot it.

Also: next week I'll have another bonus video for patrons (and a sneak peek at my next video, all about Disney villains), so keep an eye out for that.

Thanks again for helping to make these videos possible!

Matt

Bonus video! John Waters' early influences (and arrest)

Hi friends! Here are some fun stories and details that I wasn't able to fit into my John Waters video last week, exclusive for Patreon. From Andy Warhol's films "Kiss" and "Blow Job" to Wakefield Poole's adult films, the 70s were a fertile time for the work that John was doing in his movies. I'll have another bonus video for patrons -- and a sneak peek at my next video -- next week, so keep an eye out for that. Thanks again for all your support! Matt

I'm using chrome on Windows 10 and the links aren't working.

Taking a gander at your shelves and I’m smitten by the knit work art and the Tove Jansson book. Looking forward to the next batch of videos, Matt! I have *thoughts* about queer-coding in reference to yensiD, myself.

mattbaume

OMG I didn't even consider yensiD but that has given me a LOT to think about

Stephen Morris

He really dives into "adventurous sex" in A Dirty Shame which a lot of people think is his weakest work but I thought it was hilarious.

mattbaume

Oh that's a really good point -- yes, his one sexy movie! Though I think the sex is still quite silly in that one.

Jon Bastian

LOL. "Queer coded Disney films." Are there any that aren't?

Jon Bastian

But here's the ironic part about that -- by the time he made this film, and whether you watch the uncut or "neuter" version, everything in it is suddenly as mainstream as hell. Which is just a testament to his genius. The mainstream started to catch up to him when he was releasing "Polyester." They managed to lap him after that -- at least in terms of the content of his films from "Cry Baby" on. He's still a flaming genius, though.

Hi Matt, the direct link isn't working on this one, not sure why

Thanks, that one works! The link in the text of the post gives the message "Sorry, we couldn’t find that page" on the Vimeo site.
