“Happy to report that thanks to my killer cast, the flick is funny as f-ck and incredibly emotional! My boys @briancohalloran & #jeffanderson (the Vladimir & Estragon of @quickstopgroceries) not only gave career-best performances for one of my movies – they gave two of the best performances I’ve ever seen in any movie in my entire life! @rosariodawson brings Becky back brilliantly, and @jaymewes, #trevorfehrman and @austinzajur steal so many scenes, I oughta have them arrested!” Smith wrote. “I hope to show our @lionsgate partners the flick this Friday, and then all the friends and family living room screenings can kick in, so I can keep finding trims. And having seen the somewhat finished-for-now first cut, I’m elated to report the film is everything I always dreamed it could be, ever since the ending of Clerks II! Sh-t, it’s even better than I’d hoped it could be. It’s not only a paean to outsider art in general and the transformative power of cinema specifically, the flick allowed me to recreate scenes from my first film, in the same place we shot the scenes 28 years ago! I can’t wait to take you back to Jersey, Kids, with what I feel is my finest film to date!”
