Trash is a 1970 American drama film directed by Paul Morrissey and starring Warhol superstars Joe Dallesandro, Holly Woodlawn and Jane Forth. The film features graphic scenes of intravenous drug use, sex, and frontal nudity.
Jo Dallesandro had previously starred in several other Andy Warhol/Paul Morrissey films: The Loves of Ondine, Lonesome Cowboys, San Diego Surf, and Flesh. Holly Woodlawn, a transgender actress, made her screen debut in this film. Director George Cukor praised her performance and suggested she should be nominated for an Oscar award, but Gregory Peck said the Academy was undecided over whether to nominate her for Best Actress or Best Actor.[3] Jane Forth, a teenaged model, also made her film debut.
