John Waters Film Festival
New Orleans Museum of Art 1 Collins C. Diboll Circle, New Orleans, Louisiana 70124
The King of Filth himself, John Waters, is the subject of a film festival at the New Orleans Museum of Art. For five consecutive Fridays, John Waters' films will be screened. Content and family appropriateness vary widely; we cannot stress enough that if you have only seen the cable edit of Cry-Baby, you should do more research. That said, for the legions of loyal fans of Waters' delightfully distressing oeuvre, it's a rare chance to see them on the big screen.
