  • Blu-Ray Review: Beloved Kevin Smith Films Released in High Definition
    Clerks

    CHICAGO – Very few filmmakers provoke the same kind of passionate adoration as the sometimes-great Kevin Smith, a man who has such a following that he can sell out large theaters filled with people who merely want to ask him questions for hours.
