Description
Hairspray: A Subversive Film
Dana Heller's in-depth analysis reveals that John Waters' 1988 film Hairspray is his most provocative movie. This first scholarly work on any of Waters' films explores the director's use of racial and sexual politics in the narrative.
Featuring original interview material with the director, this book sheds new light on the meanings embedded in the film's treatment of these complex issues.
