Reel Movie Stars: Kevin Smith

With Zack and Miri Make a Porno due out in theaters on October 31st, we decided to feature Kevin Smith as our first director for Reel Movie Stars.

Kevin Smith got his start as a writer and director with his critical darling, Clerks, which took the Sundance Film Festival by storm in 1994.  Since then, Smith has written and directed Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Jersey Girl, and Clerks II.
