What a dirty shame in deed, Iam a John Walter's fan but did not like this moive. The laughs in A Dirty Shame are mostly bad laughs. Tracey Ullman plays a Baltimore store owner who's married to Chris Isaak. They lock up their daughter to prevent her form working as a topless dancer. Played by a unreconizable Selma Blair. Ullman's charcater is uptight sexualyy until she gets a concussion that turns her into sex addict. Johnny Knoxville plays the local sex advocate who wants to liberate the world starring with his neigborhood in Baltamore.

The joke is that everytime someone hits their head, they pass in sex addiction or out of it. I have an open mind but the movie talks about sexual fetishes I would rather not want to hear about and the humor is all based on how to shock people with outrageous behavior. It may have a adults only ratng but the humour is pitched on the level of pre-adolescence bathroom humor. As I said before you can have a open mind and hate this movie and I very well hated it. It's the equivalent of a guy in the back of a theater in a raincoat. This whole movie has that infantile attitude about sex. Some the sexual practices or festhies these people talk about are so awfully unpleasant, very very cringe worthy.
