Kevin Smith is celebrating his 52nd birthday with a throwback photo. On the filmmaker’s Twitter account, Smith actually showed off the first recorded picture of he and his sister Virginia. The sunglasses in his old photo are striking and he joked that they’ve been the on constant in his style. A lot of fans are celebrating the occasion in the replies. It’s been a good 2022 for the Clerks director as his third film in that series dropped. San Diego Comic-Con was absolutely full of people chomping at the bit to get into Moobys and immerse themselves in the world he created there’s a ton to be excited about.
