John Waters’ PECKER (1998)
Saturday, June 28th at 9:30 PM
Preshow at 9PM
$16 Public | $10 Members
Free Mix CDs and stickers for earlybirds!
Happy-go-lucky amateur photographer Pecker (Edward Furlong) can’t help but lovingly capture the gritty charm of everyday Baltimore with his modest camera. After successful DIY shows at local sub shops and laundromats, his candid portraits capture the eye of a rarefied NYC curator (Lili Taylor), kickstarting a windfall that brings Pecker, his no-nonsense beau (Christina Ricci), and his eccentric family to the Big Apple—and into the belly of the elite art world. One of the sharpest and sweetest satires in writer/director John Waters’ filmography, Pecker skewers the absurdity of haughty gallery culture while playfully confronting themes of exploitation, consent, and fame. (USA, 1998, 87 mins, R, English | Dir. John Waters)
