Joe Dirt
2001, English. Directed by Dennie Gordon.
Trailer trash wig wearin' acid wash jean lovin' rock concert t-shirt sportin' hero.
Joe Dirt is a janitor with a mullet hairdo, acid-washed jeans and a dream to find the parents that he lost at the Grand Canyon when he was a belligerent, trailer park-raised eight-year-old. Now, blasting Van Halen in his jacked-up economy car, the irrepressibly optimistic Joe hits the road alone in search of his folks.
