Remembering Clerks

Clerks is a 1994 American independent [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_film] black and white [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_and_white] buddy [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddy_film] comedy film [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comedy_film] written, directed, and co-produced by Kevin Smith [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Smith]. Starring Brian O'Halloran [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_O%27Halloran] and Jeff Anderson [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Anderson], it presents a day in the lives of titular store clerks Dante Hicks [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dante_Hicks] (O'Halloran) and Randal Graves [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randal_Graves] (Anderson), along with their acquaintances. Clerks is the first of Smith's View Askewniverse [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/View_Askewniverse] films, and introduces several recurring characters, notably Jay and Silent Bob [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay_and_Silent_Bob] (Jason Mewes [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Mewes] and Smith). Clerks was shot for $27,575 in the convenience and video stores where director Smith worked in real life. Upon its theatrical release, the film received generally positive reviews and grossed over $3 million in theaters, launching Smith's career. The film is considered a landmark in independent filmmaking and, in 2019, was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Film_Registry] by the Library of Congress [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Library_of_Congress], who deemed it "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".
