Watched online, good print.

24 songs in the Soundtracks. Hard to tell which are vintage and which were written for the film.

John Waters' answer to Grease ('78), and other bad boy/good girl films. Very high energy, with lots of characters and lots of closeups. And lots of songs. Fortunately, it's less than 1.5 hours.

Shrug from me.

Universal & more, dir. Waters; 6-
