 Film version of playwright Tennessee Williams'"The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore" involves very wealthy Flora 'Sissy' Goforth, supposedly dying, and living in a large mansion on a secluded island with her servants and nurses; into her life comes a mysterious man, Angelo Del Morte and "the Witch of Capri." The mysterious man may or may not be "The Angel of Death".

John Waters admires the film, and chose it as a favorite to present in the first Maryland Film Festival in 1999. The film's poster is visible in Waters' 1972 film "Pink Flamingos." In an interview with Robert K. Elder for his book "The Best Film You've Never Seen", Waters describes the film as "beyond bad. It’s the other side of camp. It’s beautiful, atrocious, and it’s perfect. It’s a perfect movie, really, and I never tire of it.”

Director John Waters' favorite movie (he calls it "failed art" and, thus, "perfect") is a non-stop laugh riot. So loony, so overdone, so 1968, this one's a camp classic.
