Mr. Know-It-All: The Tarnished Wisdom of a Filth Elder by John Waters

4.0

If you're a fan of John Waters then you should definitely pick this book up. The audiobook is read by Waters, and that adds quite a bit to the experience. It starts out will an in depth look at each of his films, but never leaves you feeling bogged down with detail. The time spent on each movie makes you want to go back and rewatch them all with the new insights. The second part of the book is mainly Waters' thoughts on various topics such as drug use, death, his work ethic, and Andy Warhol. This part of the book gives you an greater understanding of the man himself. Throughout the entire listen I found myself smiling and laughing. It's an overall enjoyable piece of work from the notorious "Filth Elder" that should not be missed by those who adore his unique perspective, and larger than life personality.
