This week we take on John Waters' Cry-Baby. A "classic" that was introduced to both of us thanks to the constant replay on the USA Network when we were kids. We discuss how a 12 year old Ashley thought the romance in this movie was realistic and how we are still confused on the exact relationship between Uncle Belvedere (Iggy Pop) and Grandma Ramona. Are they blood related? Or was it just a "this is your 'uncle' but he is really my boyfriend type situation?"  Regardless, we break down this movie in all its weird glory. As always we crown our valedictorian of The Nicolas Cage Online School of Bad Acting and decide if this 90's musical holds up.
