Director’s Cut by John Waters, published by Scalo in 1997, is a strange, witty, and deeply personal collection that captures the singular vision of one of cinema’s most notorious provocateurs.
 
Across the pages of Director’s Cut, Waters invites readers to experience films in a new and intimate way. The photos are grainy, vibrant, and charged with the energy of projection, revealing not only his fascination with cinematic texture but also his enduring love for the art of bad taste. The book functions as both a retrospective of Waters’ filmography and an art object in its own right, blurring the lines between photography, cinema, and memory.
