Boogie Nights - Lets talk film / When going gets tough

in #film7 years ago (edited)

Hello all, the movie that I'll be talking about today is something that is not safe for work. It reveals some of the secrets of porn industry and also showcases some of the established actors in their early life. "Boogie Nights", a movie directed by P.T. Anderson is one of his best works in cinema. The movie follows the life of Eddie Adams who becomes a porn star and his ups and downs in his carrier.

Eddie Adams will be having a miserable life. His mom will be an alcoholic and he will be working at a night club. In the night club, Eddie being a handsome young man will get attention from Jack Horner, a porn filmmaker. Jack will take him under his wing. Eddie will move away from his home to Los Angeles and starts making films. He will be having a stage name "Dirk Diggler". After getting this name he will be shot to fame. His movies will become a hit and he will be winning a lot of awards.

The movie shows the day to day life of porn stars. There are a few scenes that are very disturbing to watch. But, the movie for its most parts is really funny. Its actually a comedy film showcasing the porn industry.

There are many small stories inside this film. The story of Roller Girl is really interesting, she is one of the characters appearing in this film and she will be a student and will be trying to make money through porn. There is a scene where she will be driven all over the city by Jack Horner to try his new show which ends up real bad. The movie doesn't stay in one form for a long time. It goes from being comedy to completely serious and dramatic.

The porn industry being run be really foolish people will make you laugh at them because of their foolishness. There is a  scene where Dirk Diggler will be getting interviewed and he will give an example from history that is full of bullshit and funny as hell. Dirk is really one of the funniest character in the film.

This movie is not for everyone, but I must say this is one the most interesting films I have ever watched. There are scenes that are too much to handle for me. But, this is an entertainer. The movie works because it talks about a theme that is never talked about in the mainstream. Thank you for reading this post. For more post and reviews on movies follow me. Cheers !

It's a true spoof film, based off of a mockumentary titled The Dirk Diggler Story, one of the films that really defined the tone of a lot of 90's films such as Kids (1995), they really pushed the limits and made some controversial stuff, god bless em!

I saw this film too. I liked it, when he told his boss "you're not the boss of me".
