This Filthy World

About This Movie

This Filthy World is such an intriguing peek into John Waters' mind. Jeff Garlin captures him in this one-man show where he spills stories that are both hilarious and a bit unsettling, just like Waters' films. The pacing is relaxed; it feels like you’re sitting in a small theater, soaking in his anecdotes about ruffling feathers at the MPAA and his early influences. Waters' charm is palpable, and you can really sense his passion for the bizarre and the outlandish. It’s not just a documentary; it’s like a conversation with a friend who has a penchant for the eccentric. The atmosphere is raw and personal, making it distinct from typical biographical films. You get a real sense of the man behind the cult classics.
