Pink Flamingos

Back At The Ranch
"From his childhood puppet shows onwards Waters has thrived on publicity, outrage and exhibitionism. His 1972 underground blockbuster Pink Flamingos posited that millions of people might, no less than the movie's leading lady, willingly eat dog shit to achieve stardom - and perhaps some do."

Sight & Sound Magazine, December 2004

This is just one of the horrible things Devine (the lead role) does in this film to make the spectator feel squimish. Throughout there are other things that really puts the sensitive audience in an uncomfertable position in which you dont know if to laugh or cry
