An Evening with Kevin Smith

If you're a fan of Kevin Smith, maker of Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and Jersey Girl, then you'll probably like this one. Back in 2001 Kevin went around to several colleges where he fielded questions from his fans. In fact, I was supposed to go to one of these with my buddy Perry, but I had to finish writing a program for a class I was taking. Another one of my friends, Tara, ended up going instead. The cool thing is that you can see Perry and Tara in several parts of the film. If you're unaware, Kevin's movies are crass, rude, offensive, vulgar and include lots of swearing and homosexual content. If this kind of stuff greatly offends you, I'm pretty certain that you will not enjoy this documentary of sorts. However, if you do enjoy Smith's humor you'll be delighted to hear stories about his run-in with Tim Burton, his discussion with Jon Peters over a Superman script, the documentary he shot for Prince and many other stories.
