Clerks
1994
**½
Director: Kevin Smith
Cast: Brian O'Halloran, Jeff Anderson, Marilyn Ghigliotti, Lisa Spoonhauer, Jason Mewes
22-year-old Dante mans a convenience store while he tries to find direction in his life. His friend Randal, who runs the video rental store next door when he feels like it, is perfectly happy being the slacker he is. Kevin Smith's directorial debut was shot in black and white on a minimal budget. This cult comedy is moderately funny but not exactly cinematic. In fact it's so dialogue heavy that you occasionally find yourself tuning out. Followed by a 2006 sequel.
