2009-04-01
Produced by Johnny Knoxville and Jeff Tremaine for MTV and Dickhouse Productions, The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia is a documentary about the renowned West Virginia outlaw Jesco White and his eccentric backwoods family.

Alternately humorous and sad, the movie is an unflinching look at life on the criminal margins of rural mountain culture.
