A Dirty Shame

(2004)Directed by John Waters89 min · NC-17Comedy, Fantasy
“Threatening the very limits of common decency.”

Nobody on this tidy suburban street can say what a knock on the head does to a person, but Sylvia Stickles (Tracey Ullman), who runs a convenience store with her husband and mother-in-law, wakes up from one as a different woman. John Waters follows her through Baltimore as she draws in Ray Ray (Johnny Knoxville), a tow truck driver who calls himself a sexual healer. Their appetites start a class war in the neighborhood, and the town has to pick a side.
