John Waters accidentally makes the most the subversive children's film about racism, 60s music, interracial relationships, and the high school caste system. Plus-sized big dreamer Tracy is the kind of girl that I want to be best friends with. Don't lie, you know she'd totally be a huge fag hag. She also seems like she'd be lots of fun to hang out with, have a cooler group of friends than you do, and is genuinely a sweet girl. Plus, she has the most bitching mom ever in Divine. Bonus cool points for New Wave pioneers Debbie Harry starring as the ultimate stage mom from Hell, and Ric Ocasek popping up in a cameo.
