Boogie Nights

Boogie Nights gets under the skin of the porn film industry's exuberant burst of public semirespectability in the late Seventies, prior to the home-video revolution that changed the rules of the game forever. The movie is no socio-cultural abstract though; it is at heart the story about a group of characters and the de facto family that emerges from their relationships.

Skin Deep

If it hadn't been such a hack job (and a transparent, two-star rewrite of one of Edwards' numerous commercial peaks), Skin Deep might've done for John Ritter what its blueprint, 10, did for Dudley Moore: transform the TV vet into a viable leading man at the box office.
