Another Bonus Video! John Waters' Christmas Carols, the Sequel to Pink Flamingos, and Tori Amos
Helloooo Patreon friends!
I had so many extra stories about John Waters, Baltimore, and a terrible trashy faux pas that I've made a second Patreon-exclusive video for you. Last week's bonus video was all about what came before JW's "trinity of trash" in the 70s, and this video is all about what came after. From saucy conversation with David Letterman to a film project that wound up getting cancelled for a VERY awkward reason, here's more fun stuff that I just wasn't able to fit in the public version of the John Waters video.
Let me know if you have any issues viewing it! Patreon's still being a BIT fussy about connecting to Vimeo. Here's a direct link in case the embed isn't working.
Also, I've got a new video premiering this weekend! Join me on Sunday June 20 for a new video all about the queer magic of Disney villains. I've got SO many great stories from this one about the making of various classic animated movies, I cannot WAIT for you to see it. Join us this coming Sunday at 11am pacific for that.
Thanks again for being a part of my Patreon and making these videos possible -- and thanks to everyone who sends me clips and suggestions for things I should feature!
Matt

Loved to go to Peaches Christ movie shows out in the Richmond and then at the Castro theater. I wonder if she found a love for sharks
haha i hope so! i really miss her shows. time to bring back midnight mass!!!
Great video, but man I have to thank you for reminding me about Confederacy of Dunces! I read that decades ago and it is an amazing book and an amazing story about how it got published too as I recall - might be time to re-experience it. I've been very busy lately so doing a little catch up on your stuff . Thanks for all the good work you do! -Bryan
it's one of my favorite books. you can open to literally ANY page and it's fantastic.
A few years back John Waters had an art exhibit in St. Louis. He had a collage he called the Dead letter office of all the expired celebrities he wrote to throughout the years. Great piece.
oh my goodness. imagine getting a letter from john waters! were there any good ones in there?
Yep. It worked fine! Um... I guess I probably should have mentioned that, eh? 馃槈 Thanks, Matt! 馃榾
And just when you embark on queer Disney, Lindsay Ellis releases her little vid on the Little Mermaid! Hopefully she isn鈥檛 stealing all your thunder...
Lol WHAT are the odds. Oh well, hopefully this builds some momentum!
Lucille Bogan is the lost queer icon we don't deserve. Shave Em Dry and BD Women's Blues are filthy masterpieces.
Oh my LORD what amazing songs. It's such a delight to know how much fun people had getting filthy back then!
Getting an invalid code error. 馃槥 Will check out the direct link. 馃榾
ARGHHH let me know if the direct link doesn't work. I think this is going to be an ongoing issue with Android until Vimeo & Patreon can fix whatever's gone wrong between them.
