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.

1:32:00
Freddy, l want you
to meet Joanne.

1:32:02
Joanne, this is Freddy.
1:32:04
l know you'll like each other.
1:32:06
And l don't care
what people say.

1:32:09
And, Joanne,
l know you're hard-boiled...

1:32:12
but Freddy doesn't think
you're tough or cheap.

1:32:15
He respects you.
Don't you, Freddy?

1:32:17
We didn't have any money
in the budget for catering...

1:32:20
so Edie was quite happy
to get to eat...

1:32:21
in the following take.
1:32:22
Be careful.
l'm going to eat you.

1:32:25
Edie's getting mighty hungry.
1:32:29
Oh, don't worry, Freddy.
l have some more for you.

1:32:32
l have Rhonda, Donna,
Sherry, and Little Yeller.

1:32:40
ln the original script,
Raymond and Connie Marble...

1:32:42
also raided Divine's trailer
much earlier in the story.

1:32:45
Does Divine really
live like this...

1:32:48
out here in the country
like a hillbilly?

1:32:50
God, with all these
disgusting trees...

1:32:53
and shrubbery and wildlife...
1:32:55
l'd be scared
to sleep at night...

1:32:57
knowing possums
and raccoon and deer...

1:32:59
and God knows
what other creatures...
