The Untold Truth Of Boogie Nights

Basically, it’s everything you could want in a film about the late ‘70s porn industry. On top of launching the careers of several of its stars — Mark Wahlberg, Heather Graham, and Philip Seymour Hoffman — Boogie Nights was nominated for over 60 awards, including three Oscars.
