Zack and Miri Make a Porno
Kevin Smith 2008
Categories: Comedy, Guest in Attendance, Opening Night Film
Run time: 102 min. | USA | Language: English
BRIEF SUMMARY: Lifelong platonic friends Zack (Seth Rogen) and Miri (Elizabeth Banks) look to solve their respective cashflow problems by making an adult film together. As the cameras roll, however, the duo begin to sense that they may have more feelings for each other than they previously thought.

FULL Description
I've got a warm and fuzzy "soft spot" for Kevin Smith films. Our very first box office hit after opening up our inaugural movie theater in Bakersfield, California back in 1994 was CLERKS. We were the only theater in that conservative town willing to pick up the very first film ever to earn an NC-17 with absolutely no nudity or violence.

In the past few years, we've been seeing a renaissance in adolescent and young adult films featuring lovable losers with hearts of gold and mouths of filth. Judd Apatow and his gang are the new Hollywood hit machine with a formula for turning shocking humor involving nerdy guys into 100 million dollar franchises. All of that success, however, is built upon the foundation of the View Askewniverse, and the legacy of CLERKS.

Narrowly avoiding the NC-17 once again for lewd dialogue and subject material, ZACK AND MIRI MAKE A PORNO follows two lifelong platonic friends Zack (Rogen) and Miri (Banks) who try to solve their respective cashflow problems by making an adult film together. As the cameras roll, however, the duo begin to sense that they may have more feelings for each other than they previously thought.

Following the screening and subsequent Q&A with director Kevin Smith, join us for the Air Sex World Championships on the stage at the Paramount Theater, the official after-party of ZACK AND MIRI MAKE A PORNO. (Tim League)

Lesson One of making a porno is "it's all about the tease." Here's a little tease from the movie.
