Boogie Nights (Paul Thomas Anderson, 1997)

7/10
Happened to catch this one on TV and I'd always wanted to see it. Pretty unbelievable cast, all things considered. The plot is interesting and based on a compilation of real-life porn figures, but the scenario is pretty predictable (everybody's riding high in the 70's, big crash upon entering the 80's) and the ending was a bit too "shiny happy people" for me, all things considered. It was enjoyable though and there were a couple of poignant moments.
