In the mood for an 80’s-set teen comedy which features a lead performance from a talented and engaging up-and-coming British actress?

Here’s the trailer for Dirty Girl, the tale of a promiscuous teenager named Danielle (Juno Temple) who befriends a chubby, sexually-confused loner from her class (Jeremy Dozier) and embarks on a journey with him to find her father, who abandoned both her and her mother (Milla Jovovich – don’t you love the blatant ageism in Hollywood casting) years back.

Temple (daughter of music promo and features director, Julien) has been quietly making a name for herself over the pond for a couple of years now, and this role may be the one to finally put her firmly on the Hollywood map.

The film is due out on the 5th August in the US. We’ll let you know when a UK release date is announced.
