*Yes, James, we know it's really Kurt - please stop being disappointed in us.

Boogie Nights - Sister Christian
Having successfully effed up his career as a porn star through a combination of egomania, paranoia and needing to for the sake of the plot, Mark Marky Mark Walhberg finds himself being sucked into a scheme to stiff coked-up-bonkers Alfred Molina in a dodgy drug deal.
