Review of Hairspray (1988) by Brandon V — 26 Nov 2008
I was actually a tad disappointed with John Waters' original "Hairspray", despite being an ardant admirer of the director. I may be spoiled, since this is the story to my all-time favorite musical without the singing, and I saw the musical first, but it seemed like working in the world of PG took away some of Waters' edge.
I found my attention wandering, but must respect it still, since without it, my all time favorite musical wouldn't exist.
