polyester (1981)


"I got somethin' to show ya, Francine! It's long. And it's sleek. And it's powerful. It's mah new 'vette!"
Mrs Fishpaw (Divine) is a housewife, who hates her husband's career as the owner of a pornographic cinema. Then her world falls apart when she catches him being unfaithful to her, but her life gets worse when her daughter announces she is pregnant by a local thug, and her son arrested as the Baltimore foot-stomper. Salvation comes when her life seems at its lowest, when Todd Tomorrow (Tab Hunter) arrives on the scene, but is this the end of her problems, or just the beginning?
A fine comedy, that dabbles with Waters usual themes. Originally filmed in Odorama.
