Editorial Review: Description: Get ready for laughs the size of Texas when Olivia Newton-John, Beau Bridges, Bonnie Bedelia and Delta Burke lead an all-star cast in this twisted, white-trash tale "that puts the 'fun' in 'dysfunctional'" (Toronto Sun). The hilariously sordid details about a southern family surface with a vengeance when relatives converge for the funeral of "Grandma Peggy," who died after tripping over her lover's wooden legs! Toss in a couple of feuding, big-haired daughters, a jumpy aunt who just quit smoking, the scorned neighbor from hell, and crazy, cross-dressing "Brother Boy" - and you've got an outrageous "train wreck you can't help but watch!" (Chicago Tribune) Amazon.com: If you've got a taste for big hair, broad Texas accents, and gay rights, this mixture of white-trash comedy and coming-out melodrama is for you. Sordid Lives starts out as chicken-fried farce, as a funeral is prepared for a woman who died when she tripped over her adulterous lover's wooden legs; about midway the emphasis shifts to a drag queen unfairly held in a mental institution and the dead woman's grandson, an actor in Los Angeles who hasn't come out to his mother. The tone shifts wildly, and the humor depends on your fondness for the white-trash genre--if you like it, this will tickle your ribs; if you don't, it'll fall flat as the panhandle landscape. But it must be said that the cast (including Bonnie Bedelia, Beau Bridges, Delta Burke, and Olivia Newton-John) dives right in, no matter how over-the-top their characters get. --Bret Fetzer Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Sordid LivesGreat easy purchase, very fast delivery - awesome product, just as described. THANKS AMAZON!! Awesome funny movie! Rating: - Cute but flawedSordid Lives is like many films that have attained "cult" status in that it's an awkward, ungainly production whose devotees embrace it for the very elements that mainstream audiences might consider flaws. The story is simple and straightforward, and the characters are potentially interesting, but they most seem two-dimensional. Beau Bridges is wasted on a drunk buffoon who's never really funny or given much to do. Bonnie Bedelia fares better as the prissy mom of the narrating character, ...

Rating: - Sordid Lives the MovieLoved it. Laughed and laughed and laughed! I love the series which is a prequel to the movie. I'm a dis-functional person from the southwest and can relate. This movie is for adults (adult children). I laughed, I cried I happily kissed 10 bucks goodbye. Rating: - Sordid ReviewI have been watching the Sordid Lives new series on Logo and it is hysterically funny! The series gives events prior to those in the movie. If you like the series you will like the movie (although the movie is not quite as funny as the series). If you like irreverent white trash humor you will like this movie. Great cast! Enjoy!
