The members of the teenage gang known as the "Drapes" in Cry-Baby are presented as so antisocial that Pepper Walker (Wade's sister) is sexually active outside of marriage — and talks about it a lot. Amy Locane demonstrated serious comic chops and rom-com lead potential as good girl-gone-bad Allison Vernon-Williams, who falls in love with charming juvenile delinquent Wade "Cry-Baby" Walker, much to the alarm of her totally square family. In 1958, she won an Emmy Award for playing 1930s singer Helen Morgan on the anthology Playhouse 90, starred in the original Cape Fear in 1962, and earned two more Emmy nominations for appearing in two highly lauded World War II-based 1980s miniseries: The Winds of War and War and Remembrance, earning an Emmy nomination both times.
In Cry-Baby, this character is Wanda Woodward, who is seemingly always flirting, gyrating, and smoking.You can talk to a friend, your health visitor or GP, or contact the Cry-sis helpline free on 0800 448 0737.
He landed the film's titular role in Wade "Cry-Baby" Walker, a hardened delinquent who's really a lovelorn softie.Waters, long fascinated with Hearst, met the newsmaker at the 1988 Cannes Film Festival, and they hit it off. While Cry Baby is a fictional character— “a child who experiences adult things”—there’s truth to Melanie’s life behind some of the lyrics. Probably her most high-profile acting work was as Southern transplant and aspiring actress Sandy Harling on the first and very popular season of Melrose Place. After two decades of making subversive, challenging, and often downright offensive comedies like Pink Flamingos, Desperate Living, and Multiple Maniacs, Baltimore-based filmmaker John Waters — nicknamed The Prince of Puke, The Duke of Dirt, and The Pope of Trash — finally found his sweet spot. Hatchet-Face may not be the most graceful, friendly, or traditionally pretty girl in town, but teen bad-boy Milton doesn't seem to care.
She comes around after he's unfairly incarcerated, however, because she likes his good manners and ability to croon a tune. In “Dollhouse,” her mother is an alcoholic due to her husband’s infidelity, and the son is engulfed in the life of drugs. Tyrrell appeared in many off-Broadway and Broadway productions, as well as films including Andy Warhol's Bad and John Huston's Fat City. Needless to say, these are acts which were seriously frowned upon in American society during the conservative 1950s. After casting her in Cry-Baby, Waters used Hearst in all of his subsequent films, including Serial Mom (as a murder trial juror) and Cecil B.He worked in the Baltimore area with a devoted troupe of actors who he'd continue to work with for decades. Every '50s teen movie needs a "bad girl:" A wayward young woman who goes after what and who she wants, openly flouting the chaste and proper ways girls of the time were expected to act. Lords' work as sneering '50s bad seed Wanda required some major talent, and she parlayed her impressive performance into an active and prolific career in television, movies, and the further works of John Waters.
