I have only been a fan of Kevin's since 2000. In fact, I have to admit I slept through Clerks the first two times I watched it. I love his style, or lack thereof. I enjoy being able to watch a film without getting a headache from camera movement, or losing perspective. Too many directors think fancy camera work makes a good movie, and tend to forget that there's a story to tell. Part of the magic of Kevin's movies is the level of his involvement, from concept to finished product. These films are his babies (no offense meant to Harley) and it really shows. Each film is better looking than the last.
