Boogie Nights (1997)
The story of a young man’s adventures in the Californian pornography industry of the 1970s and 1980s. With Mark Wahlberg, Julianne Moore, John C Reilly and Burt Reynolds. Mr. Reynolds and Walhberg are great in this film. The felling of the 70s is very well captured by Paul Thomas Anderson. Its just a fun movie to watch, with original characters and good dialogs (you will be surprised of how many actors in this film are established actors by now).
Plot:
Everyone’s born with one special thing, and Eddie Adams uses his humongous “asset” to take the world of film pornography by storm. Things get ugly though when success leads to drugs and ruin. Will Dirk clean up and get back on top? Will Amber see her son? Will Rollergirl ever take off her skates?!
