Easter Island with a Chinese book of poetry. A junky queen lost without love and her sharp tongue
That's Elizabeth Taylor's brother, Howard Taylor, at 5:38 ; He happened to be visiting Liz in Sardinia one day back then during the filming and he unexpectedly took this small role as the "Journalist" and in my opinion became one of the very few actors in this movie who was not woefully miscast!
John Waters, American filmmaker, director, writer, personality, visual
artist and art collector talking about his films, work, biography, ideas
and philosophy. John Waters, born 1946, in a public open lecture with
students and faculty of the European Graduate School EGS, Media and
Communication Studies department, film and movie program, Saks-Fee,
Switzerland, Europe, 2000. John Waters.
John Waters rose to fame in the early 1970s for his transgressor cult
films. John Waters' early films were all shot in the Baltimore area with
his company of local actors, the Salamanders.
In addition to Divine,
the group included Mink Stole, Cookie Mueller, Edith Massey, David
Lochary, Mary Vivian Pearce, and others. These early films were among
the first picked up for distribution by New Line Cinema. John Waters'
films premiered at the Baltimore Senator Theatre and sometimes at the
Charles Theatre. John Waters' early campy movies present filthily
lovable characters in outrageous situations with hyperbolic dialogue.
His early films, Pink Flamingos, Female Trouble, and Desperate Living,
which he labeled the Trash Trilogy, pushed hard at the boundaries of
conventional propriety and movie censorship. A particularly notorious
final segment of Pink Flamingos, simply added in as a non sequitur to
the end of the film, featured, in one take without special effects, a
small dog defecating and Divine eating the feces. The 1981 film
Polyester starred Divine opposite once-teen-idol Tab Hunter.
John Waters
films have become less controversial and more mainstream, although
works such as Hairspray, Cry-Baby and Serial Mom still retain his
trademark inventiveness.
The film Hairspray was turned into a hit
Broadway musical, which swept the 2003 Tony Awards, and a movie adaption
of the Broadway musical was released in theaters on July 20, 2007.
John Waters' most recent film, the NC-17-rated A Dirty Shame, is a move
back toward his earlier, more controversial work of the 1970s. He also
had a cameo in Jackass: Number Two, which starred Dirty Shame co-star
Johnny Knoxville. John Waters has stated that his next movie will be a
children's film titled "Fruitcake".
John Waters is currently a professor
of Cinema and Subcultural Studies at the European Graduate School. In
2007, he also became the host (as "The Groom Reaper") of 'Til Death Do
Us Part, a program on America's Court TV network featuring
dramatizations of real-life marriages that soured and ended in murder. A
gay American, Waters is an avid supporter of gay rights and gay
pride.[4] He is also a supporter of the United States Democratic Party.
Waters has been known to create characters with alliterated names for
his movies including
Tracy Turntable, Motormouth Maybelle, Dawn
Davenport, Donald Dasher, Link Larking, Penny Pingleton, Sylvia Sickles,
Wade Walker, Wanda Woodward, Mona Malinowski, David Divine, Bo-Bo
Belsinger, Francine Fishpond, Sandra Sullivan, Prudy Pingleton, Todd
Tomorrow, Mole McHenry, Ursula Udders, Fat Fuck Frank, and Ramona Cricket.

Stiv
Bators (the most kamikaze frontiersmen in the city) and Brooke
Shields (Lolita actress, 12-years-old), together for a photo shoot.
It
had been a little more than a year since Bators had moved to New York
(at the invitation of Johnny Thunders), but he was already one of the
most recognizable figures of the punk scene in front of Dead Boys with
whom, under the sponsorship of Joey Ramone, had just released the classic Young Loud And Snotty, with hymns like "Sonic Reducer".
Despite
the naivety of Brooke Shields, pre-The Blue Lake and future "girlfriend
of America" of the 80s - it should be remembered that by then it had
been brothel meat in the red district of New Orleans in the hands of
director Louis Malle;and her movie Pretty Baby and she had posed nude for Garry Gross in a famous photo shoot for which they would end up in court.

Stiv gives a 'punk sneer' with Brooke Shields together on Manhattan cable in the mid-70s.
It aired on Manhattan Cable’s public access channel in the 1970s.
The 12-year-old Brooke Shields actually gets a little flirty with the American punk rock innovator.

Stiv was a fan of the young Brooke Shields.
What about that picture of Brooke with Stiv Bator?
Teenage Brooke Shields was there.
The above interview from Efrom Allen's Underground TV was taken during the photo shoot with Stiv Bators.
It aired on Manhattan Cable ...However, don’t be too let down, Brooke actually has some strong punk rock roots.
“The
photo was featured on the booklet of a Stiv cd called LA- LAsby Bomp!
records, 1994 edition, originally recorded in 1979/1980.
The photo of Stiv and Brooke Shields has no photographer credits, it has a label that reads …Don’t even ask beneath.
The
photographers credited at the last page of the bootleg include Theresa
Kereakes, David Arnoff, Donna Santisi and Marcia Resnick.
I believe the photo was taken by Marcia Resnick but I m not completely sure.
*'As
punk rock was throbbing in the clubs downtown, Manhattan cable TV was
experiencing its own kind of anarchy...
(i cut out the really awful
stuff)
...The coaxial pipeline was sending signals into our decrepit
little apartments that were raw, spontaneous, and often exhilarating,
punk rock’s cathode equivalent.'
(that's the worst sentence i've ever
read, Marc Campbell.)
*this excerpt from Dangerous Minds, written
by Marc Campbell, who plagiarized from me constantly under editor,
Sprocket's watch, is included here as a reminder of what an awful
writer he was.
In this episode of The Efrom Allen Show (1978), a

Stiv seems to enjoy just going along for the ride.
