An epic-size story about the adult film business in the 1970s San Fernando Valley, Boogie Nights breaks convention and delivers sex, drugs, violence, and unexpected tenderness. It is a classic backstage tale told through the rise and fall of Dirk Diggler and an extended family of filmmakers, who try to elevate the porn film to artistic heights. As exhilarating and moving as it is hilarious an daring, "with Boogie Nights we know we're not just watching episodes from disparate lives but a panorama of recent social history, rendered in bold, exuberant colors," Mick LaSalle wrote in the San Francisco Chronicle. "It is the first great film about the 1970s to come out since the '70s." In only his second feature, filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson (There Will Be Blood) serves notice of a potent cinematic force. |
