Pink Flamingos (John Waters)

In terms of reaction and audience, this film is infamous. It broke boundaries, it was obscene and people adore it for those factors.

It's the first true 'exploitation' film I've covered, due to it's notorious low budget and nature of the film's protagonist (Drag-queen Divine).

Harold and Maude (Hal Ashby)

As I know that I'm focusing on audiences, I scrolled down past the trailer for the infamous 'Harold and Maude' and saw this comment by an audience member:

A film responsible for a change on life outlook is well worth a mention.
