The Zack and Miri Make a Porno Script
Kevin Smith dialogue, as ''cleansed'' by EW

WHY THIS Because Smith's slackers-make-an-adult-film for-fun-and-profit comedy (which he'll shoot after a horror flick, Red State) sounds like a gas. Heck, Harvey Weinstein gave it the green light based solely on the title. But, egads, does it have to be so dirty? ''That's how I talk,'' says Smith. ''That's how most folks above the age of 10 talk. It breaks my mother's heart, but it's true.''

THE SACRED AND THE PROFANE ''Folks that dismiss our flicks don't really watch — or more correctly, listen to — them. Our characters may pepper their sentiments with colorful language, but it's the sentiments themselves that have helped us build an audience.''
