Screen Slate Presents Dirty Work: The Dirtier Cut
World Theatrical Premiere Run - New 4K restoration from the 35mm original camera negative of the never-before-seen “Dirtier Cut” preferred by filmmakers and cast
If there is something every man, woman, and child can agree upon, it is that Dirty Work is the greatest of all films. The story of two friends (Norm Macdonald and Artie Lange) and their revenge-for-hire business features Macdonald’s greatest screen role alongside a multigenerational who’s-who of comedy legends including Don Rickles, Chevy Chase, Adam Sandler, and Chris Farley.
Much of the cast and crew, including director Bob Saget and Macdonald, remained close in the decades following Dirty Work’s release. In interviews and podcasts, many expressed their desire to release their preferred cut, which was completed before changes were made to secure a PG-13 rating. Thanks to the work of America’s greatest film restoration specialists, who were able to access the 35mm original camera negative of all footage and conduct a new 4K restoration, the “Dirtier Cut” can finally be seen—at once filthier and more pristine than it has ever been shown before.
Screen Slate and Low Cinema are proud to present the first-ever public screenings of Dirty Work: The Dirtier Cut in its World Theatrical Premiere Run.
Dir. Bob Saget, USA, 1998, 83 min. (Note: while 1 minute longer than the Theatrical Cut, the Dirtier Cut contains approximately 7 minutes of unique footage due to the use of alternate scenes and takes.)
Dirty Work is an MGM release. Special thanks to Vinegar Syndrome, Oscar Becher, Frank Sebastiano, Mike Hunchback, and Park Circus.
