Boogie Nights Is A Perfect Horny Boy Family Movie | CineFix Top 100

CineFix Top 100

“I am a star. I’m a star. I’m a big, bright shining star. That’s right.” (re-zips his pants)

Boogie Nights was only Paul Thomas Anderson’s second film, but the story of an up-and-coming star in the waning days of the porn industry on film is exceedingly confident especially for a director in his 20s. Clint, Cal and Alex talk about the stacked cast that might be the best ensemble ever assembled, the origin of the most hilarious subgenre (the “horny boy movie") and why this movie about sex is not about sex at all.

Meanwhile, Dan’s algorithm can do it again if you need a close up.
