Description
Johnny Depp stars in John Waters' hilarious juvenile delinquent musical comedy extravaganza. Wade "Cry-Baby" Walker (Depp) is the coolest, toughest hood in his Baltimore high school. His ability to shed one single tear drives all the girls wild, especially Allison Vernon-Williams (Amy Locane). A beautiful, rich "square", Allison finds herself drawn into the world of Cry-Baby and his "drape" pals. Soon she finds herself eagerly inhaling the evil influences of rockabilly music and fast cars. It's the hysterical, high-throttle world of 1954, complete with rousing musical numbers and a diverse cast including Polly Bergen, Sysan Tyrrell, Ricki Lake, Traci Lords and many more!
