Boogie Nights

Marky Mark Wahlberg (he of the jeans ads) got his big screen break playing disco porn star Dirk Diggler in this tale of the US sex industry.

Boogie Nights traces Dirk's career from the innocent days of three-in-a-bed animal sex during the Seventies to the seedy Cocaine-snorting, AIDS-fearing Eighties.

As well as cementing Mark Wahlberg's star status, the film also relaunched the career of early Eighties heartthrob Burt Reynolds, as porn king Jack Horner.

Read a review of Boogie Nights on the BBC Films site.
