In the new comedy Dirty Girl, a chubby closeted teenager who's constantly abused at both home and school and finds liberation when he hits the road with the high school tramp.
With his irresistible debut, director Abe Sylvia weaves a sweet and ultimately inspiring tale, aided by an all-star cast that includes Oscar-winner Mary Steenburgen, William H. Macy, Mila Jovovich, Dwight Yoakam, and Tim McGraw, plus star-making turns by newcomer Jeremy Dozier and Juno Temple as the title character. Dirty Girl, which is set in 1987 and features a soundtrack filled with songs by '80s favorites including Belinda Carlisle, Bow Wow Wow, Melissa Manchester, and Sheena Easton, will be released in theaters October 7.
The Advocate is offering tickets to advance screenings of the film in Los Angeles and New York.
