Two social misfits hit the road in search of some answers in this broad comedy set in 1987. Danielle (Juno Temple) is a girl with a certain reputation at the small-town Oklahoma high school she attends -- her fashion statements suggests she's either a streetwalker or auditioning for a Mötley Crüe video, and her list of sexual conquests is quite remarkable for her age. But Danielle's disinterest in academics and her sleazy reputation land her in a remedial education program, where she finds herself partnered in a parenting class project with Clarke (Jeremy Dozier), a chubby outcast with zero cool. As they get to know one another, though, Danielle and Clarke discover they have something in common -- they both like boys and that makes problems for them with their peers -- and they become close friends, with Danielle even pretending Clarke is her new boy-toy in front of his homophobic parents (Dwight Yoakam and Mary Steenburgen). However, while both of them dream of getting out of Oklahoma someday, Danielle has a specific destination in mind -- finding the father who abandoned her mom (Milla Jovovich) years ago -- and so she and Clarke hop in a car and hit the road in search of their destiny. Also starring William H. Macy, Dirty Girl was the first feature film from director Abe Sylvia. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

    Very surprising movie. I loved it ! Jeremy Dozier was great and I think he has a great future ahead of him! Wonderful funny and heartwrenching movie. This movie is filled with great actors and talented newcomers. Watch it, you won't regret it!

    Great soundtrack, elements of dysfuntional family relationships more common than most would care to admit, and a smattering of laugh-out-loud moments. Better than I expected.

    I was surprised by the quality of this movie. The acting & directing are both great. The lead characters have developed different paths for surviving their dysfunctional families -- one in resignation, the other fantasy. Their improbable relationship challenges each of them. It's a great story that delivers an enjoyable mix of moments from painful to funny and from poignant to hopeful.
