PREAMBLE
Kevin Smith is more than a filmmaking legend; he’s a cinematic shaman. His debut film, Clerks, released in October 1994, was a revolution. It shook the indie film world with its raw, unapologetic style. Today, Smith’s characters are pop culture icons, and he remains a passionate advocate for film, cinema, and geek culture.

Smith’s stories from Hollywood are spellbinding. They offer a hearty laugh amid the industry’s chaos. His tales about the legendary Jon Peters are particularly essential for those who appreciate the absurd and insightful.
But enough of this hero-worshiping riff. I recently had the distinct pleasure of catching an early screener of Smith’s latest venture, The 4:30 Movie. Following that cinematic escapade, I had the opportunity to sit down with the cast—Siena Agudong, Austin Zajur, Nicholas Cirillo, and Reed Northrup. Dive into the synopsis, watch the trailer, and don’t miss the interviews with these promising talents.

SYNOPSIS
Writer-director Kevin Smith presents his most personal film to date with this coming-of-age story — set in the summer of 1986 — that follows three sixteen-year-old friends who spend their Saturdays sneaking into movies at the local cineplex. When one of the guys invites the girl of his dreams to see an R-rated film, all hilarity breaks loose, as a self-important theater manager (Ken Jeong) and teen rivalries interfere with his best-laid plans. Justin Long, Rosario Dawson, Jason Biggs, and more contribute outrageous characters to this poignant comic valentine to moviegoing and the youth of the ’80s.
