After hysterical housewife Peggy Gravel (Mink Stole) murders her husband with the help of her fed-up housekeeper (Jean Hill), the newfound “sisters in crime” escape to the bizarro shantytown of Mortville, a depraved penal colony presided over by a despotic queen (Edith Massey) whose tyranny pushes her subjects to shocking revolt. Deviant cops, death by dog food, DIY surgery—Waters unleashes all this and more in an at once relentlessly warped and oddly moral vision of queer rebellion.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"header_lvl2 hideSmall\" data-feature-title-field=\"\"\u003eDIRECTOR-APPROVED BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-features-list\" data-special-features-field=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew 4K digital restoration, supervised and approved by director John Waters, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio commentary featuring Waters and actor Liz Renay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003edubbed Italian track\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eNew conversation between Waters and film programmer Cristina Cacioppo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eBack to Mortville,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003ea tour of the film’s main Baltimore location, led by Waters\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eNew interview with actors Susan Lowe, Mary Vivian Pearce,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eand Mink Stole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterview with production designer Vincent Peranio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrailer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePLUS: An essay by critic Grace Byron\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eCover based on an original theatrical poster featuring photography by Peter Hujar\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Criterion Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45062849855688,"sku":"CC3825BD","price":49.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/8486\/3688\/files\/desperatelivingbd4k.jpg?v=1776911773","url":"https:\/\/videomatica.com\/products\/desperate-living-blu-ray","provider":"Videomatica Ltd (since 1983)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
