Serial Mom

Directed by John Waters1994USA94 mins

Are those pussy willows, Dottie? With our diverse strand of films exploring motherhood, we couldn’t help but include one of queer cinema’s most unforgettable matriarchs, Beverly Sutphin (Kathleen Turner in a performance so funny you end up feeling like one of her unfortunate victims)! Apologies to Joan Crawford! There’s no better way to see the funniest of John Waters’ later films than with an audience (trust us!).

Also starring Sam Waterston, Rikki Lake, Matthew Lillard, and Mink Stole, and featuring unforgettable cameos from Traci Lords, Patricia Hearst, and Suzanne Somers. For more of Frameline47’s Motherhood films, be sure to check out M Is for Mothers, birth/rebirth, and 20,000 Species of Bees.
