Quote of the Day

"What’s happened now is that every cable channel seems to be milking the true crime genre to the point that there’s nothing new. These documentaries are not documentaries. They’re just cut and paste jobs of the same thing over and over. They ruined the genre. Truman Capote started it with In Cold Blood, but now there aren’t many good hardback true crime books to come out that are well written. There are a lot of cheap paperbacks. The shows on TV are pretty bad, too. It seems like every cable station does another miniseries. The older ones were brilliant—but as we all know, whenever anything good happens, they do fifty bad imitations." 

Have you all watched The Keepers by now? It's about the murder of a nun in Baltimore in the late 1960s in Baltimore that was pretty big news there at the time and the entire time I was watching it I kept thinking that this was the exact same time and place that John was filming his insanity (like for example a "lesbian rosary job" filmed inside an actual church). There's even a closeted gay man in the doc and talk about him dressing up as a pregnant nun for Halloween... I refuse to believe that John Waters, life-long true-crime aficionado, doesn't have thoughts (or hell, knowledge!) on this case. Somebody ask him already dammit.
