Zack and Miri Make a Porno *
Kevin Smith, 2008
US
@ Pacific Place

Delightful as expected. Similarities to Be Kind Rewind, though on a smaller, much smuttier scale. It felt disjointed, but not in an unpleasant way.

Incidentally, the guy who wanders in drunk during one of the shoots, Tyler Labine, is part of the cast of A Good Old Fashioned Orgy, along with David Koechner, Martin Starr, Will Forte, Jason Sudeikis, and Don Johnson. I'm trying to envision it, but the mind boggles.
