Revealing mistake: In Dirk's first sex scene with Amber they are both supposed to be naked except for their shoes. At the end of the scene Amber sits up on the table on which they had sex as a female stage hand wraps her in a robe, and you can see she is wearing black panties. (00:54:54)

1/10.I've changed my mind about this movie.It's pure propaganda by Hollywood who had no business lecturing us about something like the adult film industry.Yes they're people,anyone could figure that much out,who have a right to do what they're doing.They also have the right to pursue this and not be treated like trash while doing it or after they're done doing and move onto to other things.Reynolds had an attitude problem about this,yet he wasn't bothered by the glamorization of criminals in an earlier movie of his The Longest Yard?. Julianne Moore gets an Oscar nod for this?.Nina Hartley and Veronica Hart,why they did this,I have no idea other than they sold out.Shame too as Nina was still smoking hot,Hollywood lecturing the public on this is the equivalent of Bill Clinton lecturing boys on how to treat girls.Don't watch it.I did and was fooled for a long time by it until I wished up about it recently.Not worth your time.

Dirk Diggler: I'm Dirk Diggler! I'm the star! It's my big dick and I say when we roll!
Trivia: Loosely based on the events of porn legend John Holmes' (died from AIDS-related liver failure in 1988) life.
Question: The paper bag full of cash from the failed doughnut shop heist - Buck takes it and it's implied he funds his stereo business with it, but would that bag really hold enough cash for what he had planned, even considering money went further back then?
Answer: No - it is implied he put the money into his bank account, qualifying him for a loan. In the time the film is set, that is certainly possible.
Yeah but wasn't he denied a business loan earlier in the film?
Perhaps with the donut money, he was able to qualify for a loan in a lesser amount, or the added money in his bank account raised his creditworthiness.
