Cry-Baby is a musical from 1990 directed by John Waters. It stars Johnny Depp as 1950s teen rebel Wade "Cry-Baby" Walker, and also features a bizarre cast that includes rock star Iggy Pop, Traci Lords, Ricki Lake and Patty Hearst. The film failed at the box office upon its first release, but has subsequently become a cult movie.
The film is a parody of teen musicals such as Grease, of Elvis Presley movies, and of 1950s 'juvenile delinquent' movies. It centers on a group of delinquents named the Drapes and their interaction with the rest of the town and its other subculture, the Squares, in 1950s Baltimore. "Cry-Baby" Walker, a Drape, and Allison, a Square, create upheaval and turmoil in their town by breaking the subculture taboos and falling in love. Part of the film takes place at the now-closed Enchanted Forest amusement park in Ellicott City, Maryland.
The film is rated PG-13 in the U.S. It was Waters' second mainstream Hollywood picture, after his earlier R-rated independent films. The first was Hairspray.
