A film about Baltimore and NOT filmed in Baltimore


IMDb Trivia: "John Waters story made into a movie was not filmed in his hometown of Baltimore, Maryland, but over the boarder, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, instead".

A blown opportunity for realism. So much for authenticity.


The best revenge: Live well, enjoy life and be happy. Drives any haters crazy.

What would be the best punishment for Penny's mom and the Von Tusles? Driving them across the Chesapeake 4 mile bridges on the windiest night and scaring them to death to teach them a lesson as an epilogue? LOL (you've seen this in the 2006 Mission Impossible, was the scene of a major scene on it) (for those who don't know that is by Baltimre and is considered the scariest bridge...I personally have not been that far back east myself ha ha )
