Joe DVD, 1970Availability Delivery Returns Policy
Film DescriptionBill Compton and his wife Joan live in an elegant Fifth Avenue apartment whilst their 19-year-old daughter, Melissa is confined to a psychiatric ward suffering from a drug overdose. When Bill accidentally kills her drug-dealing lover Frank, he flees the scene and runs into a drunken factory worker named Joe. Joe hates hippies, blacks, and anyone who is "different", and so, despite an obvious dislike for each other, he and Bill bond over their realization that the American Dream has soured for them. When Melissa discovers that her father has murdered Frank, she runs off to a hippy commune where Bill and Joe eventually track her down, with violent consequences. Joe was Susan Sarandon’s film debut and earned an Oscar nomination in 1970 for Best Screenplay.
