Ass Backwards (2013)
Kate and Chloe are two childhood best friends who met when they placed dead last in their hometown beauty pageant. Now they are all grown up and living in New York City, where Chloe works as a “girl in a box” at a nightclub and Kate is a CEO of her own one-woman egg donor "corporation". Lost in delusion, they believe they are living large until an invitation to their hometown pageant arrives and their past comes back to haunt them. Join these two loveable losers as they take an ass backwards journey home to reclaim their crown, stopping off at a women’s separatist commune, an amateur strip club competition, and meeting their favorite reality TV star along the way.

    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The film is loosely based on an ill-fated road trip June Diane Raphael and Casey Wilson took after graduating college.
    • Goofs
      When Kate and Chloe urinate nearly one hour in (the flash-forward shown in the beginning), they never take their pants off. Despite this, the puddle does form, but in the next scene, the sidewalk is dry.
    • Quotes

      Chloe: ...NO!

      Kate: No!

      Chloe: No!

      Kate: Why do you win? I wanted to win!

      Chloe: When is it our turn?

      Kate: Why? Why?

      Chloe, Kate: No! No!

      Kate: It should have been us!

      Kate: Why do you get to decide if I'm pretty?

    It's kinda cute
    It sort of reminds me of Connie and Carla or For a Good Time Call... so if you like either of those gal pal movies you'll probably enjoy this one even if it is a little slapstick.
