1:30:00
Maybe it was Connie's
marital problems...

1:30:02
that made her so irritable.
1:30:03
Where's Raymond? Where is he?
1:30:06
How could he leave me alone
with these servants...

1:30:09
these stupid asshole servants?
1:30:12
Animal rights activists
always say to me...

1:30:14
""How could you kill
a chicken for a movie?""

1:30:16
Well, l eat chicken...
1:30:18
and l know the chicken
didn't land on my plate...

1:30:19
from a heart attack.
1:30:20
We bought the chicken...
1:30:21
from a farmer who advertised
freshly killed chicken.

1:30:24
l think we made
the chicken's life better.

1:30:26
Got to be in a movie,
got fucked.

1:30:28
And then right after filming
the next take...

1:30:29
the cast ate the chicken.
1:30:32
Oh, good morning, honey.
1:30:34
lsn't it a beauty today?
1:30:36
Shit, yeah.
You cooking eggs for Edie?

1:30:38
l want to fry me up this chicken
when you're through.

1:30:41
Sure, honey.
lt'll only take me a minute.

1:30:43
Why don't you sit down there
and keep mother company?

1:30:44
Did you have a good time
last night?

1:30:46
Yeah. lt's weird
being back in Baltimore.

1:30:49
Went down Broadway last night
and saw a lot of old friends.

1:30:52
You remember Patty Hitler?
l saw her.

1:30:55
She almost shit
when she heard you were in town.

1:30:58
She gave me this to show you.
1:30:59
What is it, honey?
1:31:00
The ""Midnight,"" Mama.
1:31:01
You made the cover
of the ""Midnight.""

1:31:02
'"Filthiest Person Alive,""
they call you.

1:31:04
Ain't that a gas?
1:31:05
My original ad copy
for ""Pink Flamingos"" read...

1:31:09
'"The filthiest people alive--
their loves, their hates...

1:31:12
'"and their unquenchable
thirst for notoriety.""

1:31:14
Oh, Crackers,
this copy's hysterical.

1:31:17
lt's mostly from
the press releases...

1:31:19
l sent the wire services.
1:31:20
More fame, Mama, more fame.
1:31:22
Once the film was released,
some people in the audience...

1:31:25
actually believed Divine
was wanted for murder.

1:31:27
Oh, my God!
What a horrible photograph.

1:31:31
My first ""Wanted"" poster,
and l have to look just awful.

1:31:34
l can't imagine l had Divine
say his real name...

1:31:37
in the following take.
1:31:38
Luckily, my hair isn't this
harsh black color anymore.

1:31:42
And look at some of my aliases
they have down there.

1:31:44
Glen Milstead?
1:31:46
Why, l only used that one
on one day of hanging paper.

1:31:50
And look. They've even got
The Hog Princess down here.

1:31:54
Edith Massey
sometimes had trouble...

1:31:55
remembering long monologues...
1:31:57
but she had a screen presence
all her own.
