Criterion Reflections – Episode 101 – John Waters’ Pink Flamingos

Criterion Reflections

Criterion Reflections is David Blakeslee’s ongoing project to watch all of the films included in the Criterion Collection in chronological order of their original release. This fourth season of the podcast features conversations about movies that originally premiered in 1972 and were destined to eventually receive the Criterion imprimatur. In this episode, David is joined by Brad McDermott, William Remmers and Shelly Sampon to discuss Pink Flamingos, directed by John Waters.
