John Waters’ 1988 film, Hairspray, was the director’s first mainstream film, albeit one with enough bizarre edges to appeal to his avant-garde following as well as the masses. A hilarious take on the TV dance show phenomenon of the early 1960s, the film catapulted Rikki Lake to stardom as forthright “fat” girl Tracy Turnblad and

This week is Thanksgiving. Films built around the holiday are few and for the most part, far between. The most famous, of course, is 1947’s Miracle on 34th Street, which begins with Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade, but is more about Christmas than Thanksgiving. I’ll have more about that later. It would be almost forty years

It uses the same design elements as many others of its genre, the only distinction is in the cooler colors used, which is only marginally

Using black text on a white background isn’t original, but it’s a lot more pleasant to look at than many. Trailer Rating: B

I can’t imagine anyone going to the film except for Ryan Reynolds

Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C- Review: While the poster certainly evokes a tiny aspect of the film, it feels completely inappropriate for the tone of the project. It’s far too simplistic for even a fan of simplicity to enjoy.

It tells us nothing about the story and barely introduces the characters. However, at least it’s better than
