During disco's 1970s heyday, 17-year-old busboy Eddie Adams is looking for a break when he is spotted by veteran porn director Jack Horner. Horner rechristens Eddie 'Dirk Diggler' and makes him a star of adult cinema. Enjoying his new-found fame and a hedonistic lifestyle to match, Eddie is little prepared for the changes in the porn industry that are to come with the arrival of the 1980s and the rise of video tape.
It has been almost 30 years since BOOGIE NIGHTS was originally released and Triskel Arts Centre is delighted to be presenting this opportunity for audiences to experience this landmark film from Award Award winning director Paul Thomas Anderson (ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER) on the big screen.
“Hugely entertaining, full of surprises…this is a real epic of small lives.” The Guardian
