Baltimore, 1954. Eisenhower is President. Rock ‘n’ Roll is king. And Wade “Cry-Baby” Walker is the baddest hood in his high school.
Johnny Depp skewers his early-90s heartthrob image as the irresistible bad boy whose amazing ability to shed a single tear drives all the girls wild. Chief among them is Allison Vernon Williams: a rich, beautiful “square” who finds herself uncontrollably drawn to the dreamy juvenile delinquent and his forbidden world of rockabilly music, fast cars and faster women.
John Waters offers his own, inimitable take on the teen rebel genre with this outrageous musical comedy.
