Of all events that had the greatest impact on changing my view of the cultural world, this film had the greatest impact. Relatively square throughout my high school and college years, I came upon this film around 25 and immediately thought and wondered who these people were! Who made films like this?! Who were these actors? I was fascinated to learn that a whole subset of cultural creators existed that I knew nothing about, and so my journey into John Waters, Andy Warhol, Russ Meyer and many more began and has never ended - all thanks to seeing this amazing film for the first time. True story, folks.
