| In 1997, writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson (who now goes by the more cryptical PT Anderson) surprised the world with his stunningly well-made sophomore effort, Boogie Nights. Focusing on the world of 1970's porn, Anderson managed to pull off a poignant human touch in this seedy, oft depressing world of skin. The cast of Boogie Nights was filled with great character and independent actors including Mark Wahlberg, Julianne Moore, Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Chicago native, John C. Reilly. A favorite actor of Anderson's (Reilly also appeared in the director's first film, Hard Eight and third film, Magnolia), Reilly spent his formative years growing up in an Irish neighborhood on the city's southside. After high school, Reilly went to DePaul University's School of Drama at the Goodman Theater, where he ultimately graduated in 1987.
