overview
What is Polyester about?
It’s Scentsational!. Blessed with a keen sense of smell and cursed with a philandering pornographer husband, a parasitic mother, and a pair of delinquent children, the long-suffering Francine Fishpaw turns to the bottle as her life falls apart -- until deliverance appears in the form of a hunk named Todd Tomorrow. Originally screened with "Odorama" scratch and sniff cards so the audience could (at their own risk) smell along with the film. It blends comedy elements. The film reflects a distinct United Kingdom style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director John Waters. With a runtime of 1h 26m, it offers a concise viewing experience.
