Episode: Boogie Nights (1997) - A different kind of elephant man
Description: After some recent trashy selections for the show, Brian brings the ambitious porno-chic period piece for him and Dan to discuss. Join as they rave about Paul Thomas Anderson's epic continuous takes, the deep well of acting talent, Don Cheadle's wardrobe, and John C. Reilly's hot tub poetry. Brian and Dan each pick out portions of the film they'd cut to trim the beefy 2.5 hour runtime, break down some of the unexpected narrative moments, and call out some key production details. Huge movie, huge episode, huge... well, you know.
