While Henry Rollins was on tour with Iggy Pop in Australia, he brought along John Waters' new book. Here's what he thought:
“Mr. Know-It-All” by John Waters takes us through the innermost workings of the mind of the writer, director and provocateur.
Waters spends a lot of time on airplanes. He insists on first class now after so many years of circling the globe on promotion duty in coach. Waters has earned it; he also keeps a sharp eye on his fellow first-classers. “Just the sight of a family of four sitting in first class is enough to make me see red,” he writes.
I recently chose to bring “Mr. Know-It-All” with me on a several-thousand-mile trip as I thought it was the perfect traveling companion for where I was going and what I was about to do.John WatersLife is short and gets boring quick. If you don’t put incredible amounts of effort in, life can become an existential Sargasso Sea of mortal machinations.
“I didn't know it yet but ‘Hairspray’ was a Trojan horse,” Waters writes. “It had the power to sneak into middle-class homes and espouse gay marriage and teenage race mixing without anybody noticing. We were soon to find out that the test results were wrong. Even racists loved Hairspray!”Unfortunately, Savoy Pictures lost millions on his 1994 film “Serial Mom,” and went out of business a few years later. Around this time, Waters figured his best days in Hollywood were likely behind him.

Keanu Reeves Recalls Preparing For ‘John Wick 3’ By Acting In Two Previous ‘John Wick’ FilmsLOS ANGELES—Describing his process for bringing the assassin character to life, Keanu Reeves explained to reporters Thursday how he prepared for the title role in John Wick: Chapter 3—Parabellum by acting in the two previous John Wick movies. “I realized very early on in the development stages of John Wick 3 that the only way to really get into character was to become John Wick for a few months at a time during principal photography on two separate feature-length films whose stories would lead up to this one,” said Reeves, acknowledging that his performance in the latest movie would not have been possible had he not been given the opportunity to fully explore the role by Lionsgate Films and the team that wrote, produced, shot, and released the first and second installments. “At first, I thought that taking the character’s backstory so seriously was maybe a bit pretentious and unnecessary, but the exercise was highly recommended to me by Matt Damon, who used it for The Bourne Ultimatum and loved it, so I thought I should give it a shot. In the end, it’s all about what works best for you. Some actors use the Stanislavski or Meisner techniques to build their characters, and others need to be more hands-on by making a couple multimillion-dollar prequels.” Reeves added that he hoped the same method would allow him to turn in a career-defining performance in next year’s long-awaited third installment of the Bill & Ted franchise.
