Plots(1)
Cult director John Waters presents a tale of young love in 1950s Baltimore in this kitsch, comic musical. Square Alison (Amy Locane) is the epitome of niceness until she falls for bad-boy orphan 'Cry-baby' Walker (Johnny Depp). She discovers the 'drapes' are good people inside - but her old square pals are bent on winning her back at any cost. With Traci Lords, Iggy Pop, Ricki Lake and Patty Hearst. (Universal Pictures UK)
