"Everyone's jealous!
"Just because we're so pretty!"
--The Girls in "Female Trouble"
(1974)
I cannot believe it has been 44 years since John Waters' bitch classic was released. I just love the scene in the bathroom, with Chicklet teasing her hair--that's what I wanted to do, who I wanted to be, and should have spent more of my time in high school doing.
The reason Dawn is loved so much is because she is a true Christmas bitch, and, hence, the winner of this week's Raving Queen Bitch Of The Week Award.
Dawn had every reason to expect the gift she wanted on Christmas morning--those black Cha Cha heels--but her parents, especially the father, were too conservative to understand their daughter. Sounds like what on in a lot of Baby Boomers homes when they--like yours truly--were in their teens!
Here is the entire Christmas sequence from "Female Trouble," the perfect antidote to all that Holiday treacle. See why Dawn is such a bitch, and why we just LOVE her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love to you, too, dolls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
