Yeah, I absolutely love this film which I never expected to because of the subject matter, and one of the reasons I love it is because of the characters in how well developed they and realistic in that they’re inherently flawed people.

There was one of those "make a wish" things going on and they had assembled a number of celebrities for the event, and I happened to be there on that day. Of course, the whole thing was at a roped off pavilion with security, but when the cars began rolling in, the celebs would make a frantic run for the building. Burt didn't, he calmly walked over started shaking hands, and talked a bit. The event organizers actually had to send someone out to fetch him. Just thought that was cool as hell when I was 17.

It's funny...Reed is clearly initially threatened by the newer, younger (and better-looking) kid and wants to one-up him in a "This is MY turf kid, you're just a guest here", territorial kind of way, but Eddie comes off as so genuinely easygoing and likable that Reed can't help but take to Eddie by the end of the party...Eddie's dimwitted but "aw shucks" effortless charm has a way of winning people over very easily. Reed at this point just doesn't really have it in him to be a true dick anyway...the way he's acting towards Eddie at first isn't truly the "real" Reed. Obviously a MUCH different vibe than Dirk and Johnny Doe later in the film, where Dirk makes is abundantly clear that he has no interest in giving newcomer Johnny any chance at all, and has become fiercely protective of everything and everyone that he considers "his" (including his odd relationship with Amber...Johnny flirting with her poolside seems to be the last straw, as far as Dirk's concerned). Also worth mentioning is that his sudden "performance issues" likely had him feeling very insecure about maintaining his place at the top of the porn food chain.

When I saw the movie and he made that "you live on the streets" remark, I figured they would either fight or there would be friction. The funny thing is, on first viewing it sounds like a rude remark, a deliberate mishearing of Jack's "new kid on the streets" comment to poke fun at what he correctly assumes to be Eddie's pathetic living situation. However, you quickly realize he's not that bright, and he honestly DID misinterpret the comment. Or maybe not, since he then challenges him to name his best lift.

Whats interesting is that in the short film "the dirk diggler story", reed is actually supposed to be bisexual and also dirks lover. Would have been interesting to see but nice that theyre friends
@andrewburgemeister6684 Жыл бұрын
Yeah, I watched the short film, it is sorta primitive and obviously a very rough draft for Boogie Nights, but it was pretty interesting how PTA was 17 at the time and shot and edited it using VHS recorders and got some of his friends and family to be in the film (including Robert Ridgley who played The Colonel playing Jack in the short film). I think it was good as well to flesh out Reed a bit more in Boogie Nights and have him as a best buddy, the relationship between him and Dirk is still obviously inseparable. I wonder if Phillip Seymour Hoffman’s Scotty J was a stand-in for the bisexual lover angle from the short film?

@@andrewburgemeister6684 yeah definitely, I'm impressed with what he did. I heard Paul's dad was also the narrator? As for Scotty J, I personally think he's just gay but bi works too ig 🙃🏳️🌈

@@mssalt9030 yeah, PTA’s Dad did the narration, honestly surprising given the subject matter that he agreed to do it, he was probably just proud of his son lol, my Dad would have refused to do it since his pretty conservative lol. Sadly I think he died before Boogie Nights came out. Yeah, I think Scotty is probably just gay but probably there were some elements of Reed in The Dirk Diggler Story that was placed into his character. I loved the scene during Dirk’s first film scene where his trying to keep his composure to seeing his package, everyone’s reactions in that scene is hilarious! 😂

This movie is hilariously written and well acted you sometimes forget the darkness of it. The donut store holdup, the hardcore drug use and teenage overdose, the drug deal gone wrong, his abusive mother, the producer who turns out to be a p3d0. It’s such a rollercoaster

@@judasplow25 it came out in 1997 which is when I was born and it’s my favourite from that year!! I’m a sucker for 70’s nostalgia that my parents experienced full-on as kids growing up then (they were 9 or so in 1977 when the movie starts in the midst of disco and Star Wars, would have been an amazing time to live in!!)
