10/10Must See
Just reading the casting credits will make you giggle: Divine, Debbie Harry, Ric Ocasek, Mink Stole, Sonny Bono. Deservedly the most popular John Waters movie, Hairspray rockets to a gleeful stratosphere of high camp with a ponderous Divine weighed down by unending hampers of ironing, an interminable playlist of bad early 60's doo-wop dance hits, and a procession of bouffant hairstyles culminating in a Marie Antoinette wig high enough to encase the actual Marie Antoinette. Deliberately banal, mediocre, and fake -- this film is irresistible.

Say what you will about this camp classic, but one thing is for sure: when Tracy Turnblad, fresh out of jail, marches into the Auto Show with her followers all West Side Story-like, it is one amazing and victorious moment. You'll want to cheer.
