I watched my pretty much all time favorite movie for about the millionth time today, and as I was finishing it, I thought, "Hey now I know what to write for my blog post." Yes yes so today our topic is the best movie ever, CRY-BABY YEAH. So there's greaser (they're called drapes) named Wade "Crybaby" Walker, and he's played by young Johnny Depp (swoon). And then this square, Allison Vernon-Williams (Amy Locane) is all I'M SO TIRED OF BEING GOOD (direct quote. as I said before, I've watched this movie a loooot), and she runs away but her boyfriend is mad, you know. Typical.

 It's directed by John Waters, and is a satire of Grease and musicals like Grease and the 1950s. It makes fun of the stereotypes of the super goody two shoes kids, and the burning-cars-for-fun kids too. Also, I really like the music. It's good, man. Since this is technically a review, I shall now review it. See this movie, this wonderful movie is a really good satire, but it also manages to still be a good movie. It's got character development, and some wonderfully camp and also some just wonderful normal lines. And there's a great car chase (sort of) scene, and then a great prison break scene so that checks some boxes. The acting's also pretty overdramatic and great which is as it should be.

So yes that is pretty much all I have to say about this movie, and it is fabulous, and you should watch it, and here is the trailer and it's great.


Yes ok and now this is the end.
