Make Trouble by John Waters

3.0

I’d seen this speech before I read the book, so I already knew the things I liked and didn’t like about it.

The way this piece talks about art is wonderful. I appreciate the concepts and advice presented. It is honest, and I feel it resonating with me. It’s an impactful piece in this way. I do not want to take that away.

There’s definitely a reflection of the times Waters is from, however. The jokes he makes are somewhat insensitive and left me with a bad taste in my mouth. For that reason, this doesn’t have more stars for me.
