The Diane Linkletter Story (1970)
A well done short film
13 December 2004 - 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.
This film was distasteful in parts. John Waters has an ironic, irreverent sense of humor of course. It seemed realistic through most of it, and had kind of a documentary feel to it. It was a good social commentary. Diane's parents were portrayed as quite judgmental. They were talking about her, and especially they were judging her friends, as they were waiting for Diane to come home. Her parents seemed to not want to listen to Diane, only to judge. The part at the beginning with Diane smoking drugs was distasteful, yet funny. As was the hokey warning message from the father to his daughter. Soft music plays during this melodramatic line, "Come back. Come back before you are trapped in a life that daily becomes more aimless and unreal."
