“Exquisite taste in an exquisite place. The festival’s emcee/patron saint John Waters used to jokingly celebrate bad taste, but this festival in Cape Cod’s LGBTQ+ mecca just keeps spotting great talents on the rise. Among recent standouts is Todd Flaherty, whose $20,0000 drag-queen platonic love story Chrissy Judy story was one of our favorite films of 2022. We were also awed by Antonio Marziale’s “Starfuckers,” and gripped by Eli Powers’ haunting “Skin & Bone.” While Provincetown is particularly great at highlighting new filmmakers, it draws plenty of established stars as well: Besides Waters, last year’s guests included Bowen Yang, who promoted Fire Island, and Jenny Slate, supporting Marcel the Shell With Shoes On. It’s a near-perfect start-of-summer festival, set in a lively but not too-crowded coastal paradise surrounded by woods and sand dunes and serene beaches, with charming bed and breakfasts and unpretentious bars and restaurants all around.”
