Hairspray - The Criterion Collection

£29.99

Released: 20th July 2026. After decades of pushing the boundaries of bad taste with his underground provocations, John Waters found surprising mainstream success with this infectiously irreverent rock-and-soul comedy. It’s 1962, and the only things bigger than the bouffant hairdos are the popular dance crazes sweeping the nation. When Baltimore teen Tracy Turnblad (Ricki Lake) shoots to stardom on a local TV dance party, her radical self-confidence and support for racial integration launch a movement that takes the city by storm. Co-starring the inimitable Divine in a fiercely funny double role, Hairspray finds Waters marrying his wildly subversive sensibility with a newfound bubblegum sweetness for what may be his most irresistible film. DIRECTOR-APPROVED 4K UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES New 4K digital restoration, supervised and approved by director John Waters, with 2.0 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack Alternate 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack One 4K UHD disc of the film presented in Dolby Vision HDR and one Blu-ray with the film and special features Audio commentary featuring Waters and actor Ricki Lake New conversation between Waters and WFMU DJs Dave “the Spazz” Abramson and Gaylord Fields New interview with Lake and actor Colleen Fitzpatrick Reflections from actors Debbie Harry, Jo Ann Havrilla, Leslie Ann Powers, Clayton Prince, Shawn Thompson, and Pia Zadora Deleted scenes Behind-the-scenes documentary Get to Know John Waters (1987) Interview with production designer Vincent Peranio Trailer English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing PLUS: An essay by critic Jessica Kiang New cover by F. Ron Miller
