It took two pages for this Nic Cage masterpiece to be mentioned? fricking amateur hour. I think this is the clear choice.
There is actually a new great movie that’s more of a drama about white trash. It is aptly called “The Florida Project”. It’s not all that funny, but it is a movie about the tragedy of bringing up a young girl as white trash.

Best white trash depiction or best movie depicting white trash?
This is one of the best because it shows the trailer aspect but doesn't exaggerate or belittle...and it's just a great movie.
For those who haven't seen it:
Spoilers
In 1996, Mark Borchardt, a blue-collar suburbanite, dreams of being a filmmaker. However, he is also an unemployed, deeply indebted, borderline alcoholic who still lives with his parents and is estranged from his ex-girlfriend, who is threatening to revoke custody of their three children.
In an attempt to jump-start his amateur film making career, Mark restarts production on Northwestern, a feature-length film Mark has been planning for most of his adult life. Initially, the project attracts some interest from the group of amateur actors with whom Mark produces radio plays, but by the fourth production meeting, almost no one shows up and Mark is forced to acknowledge that he currently lacks the resources to ever move Northwestern past the pre-production phase.
In an attempt to drum up the attention and financial resources needed to film Northwestern, Mark decides to finally complete Coven (a 16MM horror film he started two years earlier) - Mark receives financing from his uncle Bill, a wise but increasingly senile eighty-two-year-old retiree who lives in a dilapidated trailer despite having nearly $300,000 in his bank account. Bill hesitantly agrees to invest in Coven with the goal of selling three thousand VHS tapes, which he hopes will raise enough capital to finance Northwestern.

Wild Things had the trailer trash and rich white girl trash thing going on pretty well.
Yep, Neve Campbell was amazing in it (and looked smoking back then).
