Does anyone remember Kevin Smith?

Kevin Smith: The guy that did the document with Prince for Prince's celebration of his new album.

See it. He talks all about it and the document will never be seen! So this gives you a heads up of what it's like to be working with Prince.

The word is "documentary."

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

I'm not a fan particularly, but you say that like it's the only thing he's known for. razz

For the record, Kevin Smith was not some random guy that Prince plucked from obscurity to film the Celebration at Paisley Park. Smith is a very well known, loved, and respected film writer and director, act, and producer. Go here.

Clerks

Mallrats

Chasing Amy

Dogma

Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back

The Flying Car

Jersey Girl

Clerks II

Reaper

Zack and Miri Make A Porno

Fanboys

Cop Out

He LOVES The Time, and had them appear in Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back, and perform "Jungle Love". That live cut is also on the soundtrack.

No, we'll never see the documentary he shot. We know the Prince story because he told it on his stand-up DVDs, An Evening With Kevin Smith & An Evening With Kevin Smith: Even Harder. Smith never signed the Privacy Contract, and Prince hated it when Smith started talking about his experience at Paisley Park.

This isn't new. Ever since Smith was picked to do the documentary, then talked about it later, fans have known.

I did not mean to make it sound like Kevin Smith is just a guy that worked for Prince! Relax everyone I know who Kevin Smith is I actually like the guy, his films are great Ive seen them. I know what he does.
