John Holmes Motherfucker - 2017-02-01
When Serial Mom was out, there was a promo interview, and they asked waters and the cast members what the qualities of the perfect Mom would be, and the answer Waters gave was "She should be in love with your Dad".
Isn't that a great fucking answer? He's always had his head on straight. When his films became gentler and more mainstream in later years, I probably thought he was selling out. But it was wisdom. He never really lost the perverse sensibility, but he made some wonderful stuff, and avoided the trap of trying to out herod herod for thirty years. It would have been terrible.
