Clerks.

Clerks.

1994

Kevin Smith's now-legendary debut indie film shows a day in the life of two convenience store clerks, Dante (Brian O'Halloran) and Randal (Jeff Anderson). The two fight boredom with long-winded and hilarious conversations and do battle with drug dealers (Jay and Silent Bob) who frequent their shop, all while they needle their customers. Includes the original rough cut, with a new commentary track.

[Christmas theme] Jingle bells, the bathroom smells, the coffee's cold and stale. We're overworked and underpaid but it keeps us out of jail.
