Rewatching Boogie Nights. Why was this guy so fucking worthless?

I think the implication is that it's Dirk's stepdad, so he doesn't quite have the authority to step in and stop the mom/son fight.

PTA really hated his mom irl, which is why the fight is so incoherent. It's a lot of projecting that doesn't really connect on screen

It's a great fight between mother and son, reminds me of several I had with my mother. That scene is definitely one of the strongest in the movie.

That cuck guy had a hot wife, before the went crazy and blew everyone's face off.

>YOU DONT KNOW ME! I HAVE GOOD THINGS THAT YOU DONT KNOW ABOUT! DONT TALK TO ME LIKE THAT! NO!

It definitely captures the emotions, but the motivation and escalation is really off the wall. But I guess that's how my fights with my parents as a teenager would seem too

Was he talking about his penis?

Nah he was talking about his non-existing acting career and movie that he was working with John c Reilly.

I won't film you in the state you're in
