14. Consensus voice: "It's a classic love story dressed up as something a bit racier, and not only do we know where it's going, we know just how it plans to get there." -- Rossiter Drake, San Francisco Examiner Photos © 2008 The Weinstein Company. Review © David Bruce

15. LOVE HAPPENS. LOVE IS CENTRAL It is vintage Kevin Smith. There is filth and raunchiness and sexually explicit material, but his films have all-at their core-been about loving relationships either between best friends or romantic interests. In this film you get both: best friends who become love interests. Photos © 2008 The Weinstein Company. Review © David Bruce

16. Ohh, porn! Knee jerk reaction to it is always negative. All though this film is a romance story, and not a porn movie, it does deal with porn. In the story, Zack and Miri attempt to do a porn film for financial reasons. In other words, the film looks at reasons why someone might become involved with porn. Actually, such an examination is good. Are you into porn? Does it consume too much of your time and energy? Do artificial relationships take place over real intimacy? If so, you need to explore the reasons why it has such a place in your life. You need to be in control, rather than to be controlled by an obsession. Be free. Review © David Bruce

17. THIS FILM IS ABOUT LOVE BETWEEN PEOPLE. Not ‘love’ between self and things (like porn). Love is the difficult realization that something other than oneself is real. --Iris Murdoch, writer and philosopher Photos © 2008 The Weinstein Company. Review © David Bruce

18. “Love is not blind - it sees more, not less. But because it sees more, it is willing to see less.” --Rabbi Julius Gordon Photos © 2008 The Weinstein Company. Review © David Bruce
