CGiii Comment
This dust is a must if you love Divine.
Made just for laughs - there are no profound messages, no performances capable of an award - just a romp.
Bartel has made some strange films with a fair amount of success - this fits well into his portfolio.
Divine plays Divine - albeit more tame than expected.
Just for fun - but, quite special.
