Plot: Everyone's born with one special thing, and Eddie Adams uses his humongous "asset" to take the world of film pornography by storm. Things get ugly though when success leads to drugs and ruin. Will Dirk clean up and get back on top? Will Amber see her son? Will Rollergirl ever take off her skates?! Eddie Adams would have been just another high school drop out had he not met the likes of adult film director, Rick Horner. Horner transforms Eddie into Dirk Diggler, a rising-star actor with a special gift. Set as taking place in the late 1970's and early 1980, the film is a tribute to the decor, style, culture, and social attitudes of the era. Eddie Adams, a young man working in a night club, is discovered by porn director Jack Horner, who soon puts Eddie, renamed Dirk Diggler, and his "talent" on the top of the porn industry. But when the 80s arrive, Dirk and his colleagues in the porn industry have to cope with a new era, as well as the baggage they bring with them from the 70s. Eddie is an aspiring actor who gets discovered by Jack Horner, a porn director that considers his job an artform. Eddie then changes his name to Dirk Diggler and gets sucked in the lifestyle and relationships of the porn industry of the late-seventies.
