New 4K Restoration Trailer for PTA's 'Boogie Nights' Movie from 1997

"I plan on being a star. A big, bright shining star." Park Circus has revealed a new official trailer for the 4K restoration & re-release of the early PTA classic Boogie Nights. Years before he would go on to finally win his Oscars, Paul Thomas Anderson's breakout movie was this one - Boogie Nights in 1997. It premiered at the Toronto & New York Film Festivals in the fall before opening in theaters in October that year and doing pretty well at the box office for a little film about adult films. Boogie Nights is PTA's swirling portrait of the porn industry in California of the 1970s & 1980s. Through the rise and fall of Dirk Diggler, the film sketches a world full of ambition, fame, addiction, and a craving for family. Big, energetic and tragicomic: a modern American classic about people who want to be seen. Featuring Mark Wahlberg, Julianne Moore, Burt Reynolds, Don Cheadle, John C. Reilly, William H. Macy, Heather Graham, Nicole Ari Parker, and the iconic Philip Seymour Hoffman. It earned a few Oscar noms but didn't win any. All these years later and it's still considered one of PTA's best movies, about a lot more than just pornography. Roger Ebert wrote: "Through all the characters and all the action, Anderson's screenplay centers on the human qualities of the players... Boogie Nights has the quality of many great films, in that it always seems alive." Boogie on. // Continue Reading ›
