Additional InformationCult director John Waters goes mainstream -- sort of -- in this send-up of 1950s teen melodramas. Heart-throb Johnny Depp stars in the title role as a glamorous delinquent who heads a gang of hoods known as the Drapes. Trouble starts when Cry-Baby falls for a squeaky clean blonde from a rival group, the Squares. Their star-crossed romance sets off a rumble between the warring factions and Cry-Baby ends up doing time in reform school. Chock-full of rock 'n roll and Waters' usual cavalcade of eccentric celebrities, including Patty Hearst, Iggy Pop and former porn star Traci Lords.
ReviewsSight And Sound - [I]ts charm derives from a palpable affection for the Elvis-era mores it's sending up, Rolling Stone - ...It's tawdry celebrity on the rampage. Waters revels in it....The wizard of odd still runs amok..., USA Today - ...Waters embellishes CRY-BABY's endless set-pieces with inimitable touches..., New York Times - ...Vintage trivia [turns] into crazily overblown little triumphs..., Entertainment Weekly - [A] jailhouse-rockin' tribute to '50s juvie movies...
