Speed Cinema Screening: Female Trouble 10/26/18 8 pm

Directed by John Waters

Glamour has never been more grotesque than in Female Trouble, which pairs the juvenile delinquent educational film genre with heightened decadence. John Water’s muse Divine stars as Dawn Davenport, who develops the mantra, “Crime is beauty,” and is hell-bent on a bender that will land her right in the electric chair. Divine is joined by Waters’ beloved troupe of regulars including Mink Stole, Edit Massey, and Cookie Mueller. 1974, U.S., DCP, 89 minutes. Rated NC-17.
