PTA's cinematographic masterpiece

"Boogie Nights" (1997) written and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, is a technical statement by an awe-inspiring director in the making.

PTA's direction is focused, deliberate, and in line with the great pacing of his own screenplay.

Actors are all great, in particular Julian Moore, and as usual, Philip Seymour-Hoffman steals the show with his remarkable talent in a supporting role. Truly one of the greatest actors of his generation. Mark Wahlberg surprises as worthingly competent.

Cinematography in particular is astounding and immersive; hereunder the one-takes are incredibly awesome.

Editing is excellent - serves the right purpose - lots of dynamics between fast cuts establishing implied references and purposeful long-takes immersing the viewer in the film.

Score is great, lots of disco and funk - awesome as well.

Highly recommended as a great film by an aspiring world class director.

Quiz
After seeing a rough cut of the film, Burt Reynolds regretted making it. He fired his agent for recommending the role to him, and did not participate in promotional interviews. Reynolds ended up winning a Golden Globe for the role, and being nominated for an Academy Award for his performance. Despite being a front runner for the latter, it was widely rumored that he did not win because he had distanced himself from the movie earlier.

Blooper
When Little Bill complains to Kurt about his wife having sex with other men, he says, "My fucking wife has an ass in her cock in the driveway, Kurt." Little Bill was supposed to say "My fucking wife has a cock in her ass in the driveway, Kurt", but the director loved the way the incorrect line showed how angry and flustered Bill was, and left the scene intact.

Citazioni
Dirk: What can you expect when you're on top? You know? It's like Napoleon. When he was the king, you know, people were just constantly trying to conquer him, you know, in the Roman Empire. So, it's history repeating itself all over again.

Curiosità sui crediti
As the credit for Robert Downey Sr. scrolls up the screen, the words "(a prince)" appear next to his name.

Versioni alternative
New Line Platinum Edition, released on DVD, features 9 additional scenes not included in the original theatrical version. The sell through widescreen VHS tape also has the deleted scenes.
