the pictures of Rex


How did Joe obtain the pictures of Rex's genitals? I'm assuming he didn't get them from Rex since why would Rex carry around pictures of his own dick. Did he just rifle through Sharla's bedroom until he found them? How would he even know they existed? There's no particular reason for Rex to have given him that information.

when he pulled out the photos, i thought he also pulled out sharlas red phone purse. he got the pictures from the phone.

This was all set up earlier in the movie. Sharla is looking through the pictures at the pizza place she works while on the phone with Rex. You know it's him because she says "Don't worry, it's not like you can see your face" indicating Rex is nervous someone is going to find out about their affair.

Joe also has several days (at least one day planned out) when he is to be alone with Dottie at their trailer, giving him hours upon hours to possible go through their belongings and find wherever Sharla had hid them.

And he didn't get the pictures from her phone, they were in a small, red photo binder like what some people keep coupons in which explains why she probably wouldn't have carried them on her at all times, unlike her phone which Joe wouldn't have had easy access to.

they were pix of her blowing him

I would say my memory is not what it used to be. But I don't remember what my memory used to be.

I thought he obtained them when he pulled Rex over towards the end.

Agreed. Rex had his own copies which Joe has appropriated. 🐭
