Dante Hicks is a clerk at a local convenience store in New Jersey. On one particular Saturday morning, he gets called in on his day off. Once there, he must deal with multiple problems. The shutters outside won't open. His ex-girlfriend, whom he is still in love with, is getting married. His girlfriend, who bugs him about starting college, has revealed certain, uh…stuff about her past. His boss hasn't come in to take his place. He has a hockey game at 2 o'clock. Another ex has died, and today's the last day he can go to her wake. He must deal with customers that aren't so intelligent. His friend, Randal, a clerk at the video store next door, is even less dedicated to his job than Dante, and is always bothering Dante's customers. And the biggest problem of them all: HE'S NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE THERE TODAY!! Can Dante manage it all?
IMDB
What feels like a black-and-white home movie, shot in the debris district of New Jersey over a weekend with a group of lost boys too grunged out to groove a line, Clerks grows into itself and becomes hysterically negative, like there's nothing in life but porno vids, demanding women and a horrible future of unwashed underpants.![Clerks X: 10th Anniversary Edition (1994) [Collector's Edition]](https://pixhost.icu/avaxhome/5d/67/0021675d_medium.jpeg)

![Clerks X: 10th Anniversary Edition (1994) [Collector's Edition]]()
At first, writer/director/actor Kevin Smith's style has a squeezed blackhead naturalism and his chatter is a celebration of political incorrectness. Later, as the characters emerge from the shallows of cut-price lethargy into the fast flow of conversational insult, a genuine life takes hold.
Dante (Brian O'Halloran) works for a convenience store, while next door his friend Randal (Jeff Anderson) looks after the video shop. They are 22-going-on-200, so jaded they keep themselves awake bitching about their lousy lives. Dante can't be bothered to go to college and make a stab at self improvement, although he's conscientious and ultimately decent. Randal hates customers. He thinks all men are homosexuals and all women pathetic.![Clerks X: 10th Anniversary Edition (1994) [Collector's Edition]](https://pixhost.icu/avaxhome/5f/67/0021675f_medium.jpeg)

The film is a day-in-the-life. Dante has girl trouble. Randall makes waspish comments. Weirdos and obsessives dog their lives. Fetid sleaze is nothing worse than junk culture on the turn, with an end-of-civilisation inevitability about it.
These bozos haven't given up. They never joined in the first place.
Viva slack!

It’s hard to believe that it’s been ten years since Jay and Silent Bob first made it to the big screen, and Kevin Smith became a household name (well, at least a household name for college students, burn outs and indie film fans). And in looking back through his films, I still say that “Clerks” is my favorite Kevin Smith movie.![Clerks X: 10th Anniversary Edition (1994) [Collector's Edition]](https://pixhost.icu/avaxhome/60/67/00216760_medium.jpeg)

What made “Clerks” so great? Maybe it was because he didn’t feel like he had to live up to something. Even today, this grainy B&W 16mm film with crummy sound and rough acting is the benchmark of Smith’s entire career. Even he can’t move away from it, evidenced by the fact that (according to the trade press) he’s bailed on directing “The Green Hornet” to do “Clerks 2.”
Although Kevin Smith sets himself up to not care about what people say of his films, he does. And this is what made “Clerks” so good. He wasn’t caring when he made it. He was just making a movie he thought was funny. And there was something about “Clerks” that touched an audience beyond just indie film fans.![Clerks X: 10th Anniversary Edition (1994) [Collector's Edition]](https://pixhost.icu/avaxhome/61/67/00216761_medium.jpeg)

Even Kevin Smith doesn’t realize where all of his “Clerks” audience came from. They aren’t just dope-smoking college students. It would probably really cheese Smith off to realize that he has conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh to blame for some of his viewers. When “Clerks” came out on video, Limbaugh talked about it on his show, actually pointing out a strong conservative message amid all the talk of oral sex, snowballing and one of the characters having sex with a dead man. At the end of the film, Randal berates Dante for being the constant victim. Randal, of all people, delivered a message that connected with Rush Limbaugh of all people - that your success in life is your own responsibility.![Clerks X: 10th Anniversary Edition (1994) [Collector's Edition]](https://pixhost.icu/avaxhome/68/67/00216768_medium.jpeg)

This 10th anniversary release contains three discs, and like any Kevin Smith release, you can bet there’s some great stuff in there. The first disc contain the original theatrical version with most of the features from the original DVD and laserdisc release - including the original 1995 commentary track, the trailer and music videos. This new disc also has a lost scene that was animated into the film with the “Clerks Animated Series” style, Smith’s “Flying Car” film he shot for “The Tonight Show” and the lost MTV spots with Jay and Silent Bob. One final treat is the original auditions for “Clerks” for Brian O’Halloran, Marilyn Ghigliotti and Jeff Anderson.![Clerks X: 10th Anniversary Edition (1994) [Collector's Edition]](https://pixhost.icu/avaxhome/67/67/00216767_medium.jpeg)

Smith and long-time producer Scott Mosier recorded new intros and segments for this DVD, although these are pretty lame. Maybe they’re running out of things to say about “Clerks” after ten years. Maybe they’re just getting old.
The second disc contains the original cut they sent to the IFFM, which has integrated into it all the deleted scenes you might have seen on the original “Clerks” DVD and laserdisc release. It also has a brand new commentary track with Smith, Mosier, Brian O’Halloran, Jeff Anderson and Jason Mewes. This is an interesting track, not just because it gives a ten-year retrospective, but also because it is the first chance to hear what Jeff Anderson (who had a falling out with Smith after “Clerks” was sold and thus wasn’t invited to commentary sessions) has to say.![Clerks X: 10th Anniversary Edition (1994) [Collector's Edition]](https://pixhost.icu/avaxhome/63/67/00216763_medium.jpeg)

Disc 3 contains one of the best extra things on the “Clerks” 10th anniversary release, a documentary called “Snowball Effect: The Story of Clerks.” This feature-length documentary tells the journey of “Clerks” and offers some new insight into the film’s sale. One of the more striking things I took from this was how close “Clerks” was to never even being seen by anyone but family and friends. It was just by chance that indie film consultant Bob Hawk even went to the screening at the IFFM in 1993. (He was the only one in attendance that Smith didn’t know.) Also, “Clerks” was originally rejected by Harvey Weinstein as a Miramax acquisition because he walked out during the anti-smoking scene in the beginning. Although “Clerks” is a great film, Smith has to thank lady luck for getting it sold.![Clerks X: 10th Anniversary Edition (1994) [Collector's Edition]](https://pixhost.icu/avaxhome/64/67/00216764_medium.jpeg)

Also on disc 3 is Smith and Mosier’s first directing effort, “Mae Day: The Crumbling of a Documentary,” which they did at Vancouver Film School. There’s also a 10th anniversary Q&A which rehashes many of the same stories we’ve heard, and shows us some obsessive fans that even annoys the heck out of Kevin Smith and gang.
While I’m not a huge fan of reading content off a DVD screen, there is plenty on this disc if you’re into that sort of thing. Some selections including articles and reviews as well as original journals from Kevin Smith. Finally, if you’re a Kevin Smith fan who hasn’t yet purchased the script for “Clerks,” you can get the entire 160-page screenplay with your DVD-ROM.![Clerks X: 10th Anniversary Edition (1994) [Collector's Edition]](https://pixhost.icu/avaxhome/65/67/00216765_medium.jpeg)

If you’re a fan of “Clerks,” this DVD is a must have. The same thing goes if you’re at all interested in the story behind “Clerks.” The bottom line is that “Clerks X” is a great DVD for many different reasons, even for the casual Kevin Smith fan.
