Award-winning director David Gordon Green (Prince Avalanche, Pineapple Express, Undertow, All the Real Girls), gives Academy Award® winner Nicolas Cage his best role in years as the hard-living, hot-tempered, ex-con Joe Ransom.
Joe hires teenaged Gary Jones (Tye Sheridan; Mud, The Tree of Life) and his destitute father to help out his “tree-poisoning” crew. While Joe might be notoriously reckless with his pick-up, his dog and especially with women, he sees something in Gary that gets to him: a determination, a raw decency and a sense of resilience which draws them together in an unlikely friendship.
When Gary finds himself facing a threat greater than he knows how to handle, he turns to Joe, setting off a chain of events that play out with the brutal inevitability of tragedy and the beauty of a last stab at salvation.
Joe is now available on DVD, and thanks to Madman Entertainment we have 5 copies to give away to Australian readers. To go into the draw for this giveaway, email your name and address to
