In a recent thread, Bill wrote the following:
As a European member, I would like to follow Bill's advice and start a series of discussions about European performers. I would like to do this in a way that all members, including the American members, could easily participate in the discussion.
I think this can be done by posting pictures of European performers, who may not be very well known by American members. These pictures can serve two functions: 1) they can provide a visual introduction to the performers, to make identification a lot easier (sort of like Sbandoboy has done with his wonderful site) and 2) they can lead to discussions about the performers in question: do you like them, are they different from American performers and if so, in which way, etc.

Let's start with an example. How many of you are familiar with a Ukranian girl called Julia Tchernei aka Julia Benvenuti, Julia Dobler and Julianne Rose? I am certain that a lot of you have seen her in at least 1 video or dvd.
Here is a list of her titles: Biancaneve e i Sette Dani , Jon Dough’s Dirty Stories 4: Tails from Bootyphest , World Sex Tour 5 , The Pyramid 2 & 3 , Sweet Baby , Triple X 20 & 21 & 22 & 25 , Private Stories 20 & 22 & 25 , Rock ‘n’ Roll Rocco 2: Back Stage Pass , Private Casting X 13 & 21 , Lil Women 1 , DP Eurosluts 2 , Lee Nover 6 , The Wild East , Piano Boogie and The Au pair Girl .

To make the discussion a bit easier, here is a picture of her:

What do you think? Is this a good way to start discussing European porn among both European and American members? Or is it wasted energy on my part and should I discontinue such posts?

I think that it's an excellent way to start discussing European porn. I haven't seen Julia in anything, but I have a feeling that I may be looking to rent one of the tltles in your list in the near future.

I know her as Julia Benvenuti from Pyramid 3 (w/J-Y, A+) and Sweet Baby 1 (w/Richard Langin, also A+ in my book): I assumed she was Spanish for some reason. Not on my cards for Stories 22 or TXV 21, 25--are you sure? (Maybe the Report on Sweet Baby in TXV 21.) Took anal extremely well, especially for so small a girl. And those tits!
Good idea, Walter. Hope it takes off.
What I would like to ask you about is Michel Ricaud. I know only of his last two (Private) movies and am very curious of any other comparably good movies he has done. Can you recommend anything? I am particularly interested in anything personally distinctive of his directing style, but also simply want to know which of his earlier movies are the most highly regarded.
TIA

Great idea Walter! I like it a lot. I'm not familiar with Julia, even though I love europorn. I am guessing from the titles that you listed, that this is because she worked with Woodman a lot. Is this true? So far, I've rarely been impressed by anything Woodman has turned out.

Keep it up and let's get some lively euro-discussion!

I am pretty sure Julia appeared in original hardcore scenes in Private Stories 20 and in Triple X 20 & 22 . The other numbers in these series only refer to behind the scenes footage or "making of" segments. No new footage can be found there, except soft core. I have also included titles if she only can be seen during a reportage of the many Erotic Film Festivals, where she can be seen in the crowd on stage, for example.

Michel Ricaud was very prolific between 1988 and 1993, when he was the house director of Video Marc Dorcel. According to the French magazine "Hot Video", he was the greatest French porn director ever. I don't know if this is true or not, but I have seen 28 of his videos and none of them were truely bad. I would say that most of them are above average and some of them are very good examples of the way plotted porn can be combined with strong sex scenes within a distinctive European or French style. It is said that he more or less laid the foundation for the house style of VMD: emphasis on upper class milieu, the seduction and sexual education of "innocent" or sexually inexperienced women, high class lingerie, and so on.
These are some of his titles that are considered as classics in France: La ceinture de chastété , Les putes de l’autoroute , Délit de séduction , Constat d’adultère , La Vénus bleue , Indiscrétions d’Hotel , Souris d’Hotel and L’éducation d’Anna . If I would have to recommend just one, I would chose La Vénus bleue with Deborah Wells, Elodie Chérie, Chloe Des Lysses and Lydia (Julia) Chanel.
He usually worked with a relatively well known cast or big stars, including many appearances by American stars such as Keisha (L’éducation d’Anna ), P.J. Sparxx (Elles voulaient être Star and Offertes à tout n° 3 ), Carolyn Monroe (Carolyn Super Star , Les Menteuses and Constat d’adultère ), Nina Hartley (Offertes à tout 1 , she does a rare anal scene in this one) and Lynn LeMay (Le tour de manie velle ). His favorite American star was without a doubt Tracey Adams, whom he used many times (in La ceinture de chastété , Les putes de l’autoroute , Viol au Téléphone , Elle préfère les vieux , Souris d’Hotel and La Femme en noir ).

Thank you for your very complete answer, Walter. "La Venus Bleue" it is then. (I just hope the omnipresent Christophe Clark is not in that one.) I'm also tempted by the Keisha movie, and Zara Whites was in one of them.

If I might press just a little bit further: how do you think these VMD movies compare to the Private ones I know? For example, "Club Private in Seychelles" had a light-hearted holiday feel to it I really liked, such that watching it was like being on vacation myself. Something about that director really appeals to me.

Yes,I fully support more Euro talk.Especially as I'm always looking for particular sex acts(DP/anal/Gangbang,etc.)from my favorites.I would also like to understand what the different Euro labels are and what kind of quality.I've searched pages with Magma,Puaka,etc.but it's difficult to know what's in there just by looking at a boxcover.

I would like to talk about Betty Gabor. (if somebody can post a picture of hers please do). Anyway besides her Private videos, I know she appears in Violence, The Bodyguard and Top Models. Does anyone here knows of any other videos with her in it? ..for those that do not know her, This charming brunette has the most beautiful smile that I have ever seen in porn, the way she looks up to Rocco right before giving him a bj (in the Bodyguard) is priceless!

If you don't like Christoph Clark, then maybe La Venus Bleue is not such a good idea. Clark is in that video. Deborah Wells has the lead role and Clark and Wells were romantically involved when the video was shot.
A good Ricaud video without Christoph Clark is L'éducation d'Anna . The performers in this one are Philippe Soine, Yves Baillat, Siegfried and Dominque St. Clair (male performers) and Gyn Seng (aka Solange), Keisha, Joy Karin's and Marie Noelly. The story is centered around the sexual education of Gyn Seng; it is a variation of the "story of o", without the S.M.

The VMD titles still have a light, often ironic touch. They are not really comedies but also are definitely not dark or heavy handed. They never take themselves seriously. And that is a good thing, imo.

Are you sure about Zara Whites appearing in a Ricaud video? She hasn't in the 28 Ricaud videos I have seen. Of course, Ricaud has made somehere around 40 videos for VMD. Maybe you are confusing Ricaud with Italian director Mario Salieri. zara has appeared numerous times in his videos.

Here you go Wally:

I don't know if this is "the most beautiful smile" in porn, but it is very beautiful indeed.
I don't know of any other titles than the one you have mentioned. Sorry. In fact, I would like to know some more titles myself.

Great idea Walter!

I really like those kind of discussions. Its a good way
for us, euro fans, to discover new talent that we have
never heard of. I have to admit, that even though most of
the actress that I prefer are from Eastern Europe, my
European porn knowledge is very limited because most of the
movies I watch are producted by American companies.

Well, then, "l'education d'Anna" it will be: the story appeals and Gyn Seng looks yummy.

I made a list of 17 Ricaud movies from Orgazmik a long time ago, which includes the 8 you mentioned as well as "Lady Vices" with Zara and Sunny McKay. (What were these big American stars doing across the sea? VMD must have been quite prosperous in those days.)

Since you mention Mario Salieri, do you know anything (perhaps from Hot Video) about the status of "Faust"? I heard it was released in Germany (finally!) but didn't see it advertised anywhere.

I'm enjoying this discussion, as Betty and Solange are both totally gorgeous and two of my favourites (along with Charmaine).

Solange appeared in lots of soft UK mens mags in the early 1990s and it was a real thrill to discover she'd done hardcore. She looks much much better in hardcore mags!

The lovely Betty Gabor

Walter this is fantastic! very ironically, i was thinking about doing something pretty much identical to this about a week ago - a "Eurobabe of the week" post using much info from Sbandoboy's index and perhaps giving it a little bit of added exposure. unfortunately his site is down now for some major revamping.

i'm very glad that someone like you has picked up on this idea. whereas i am still working towards my bachelor's in Eurobabes, you, Sbando, Speelie and others have PhDs.

That is it. That is what I am going to call it: "Eurobabe of the Week". I will post a picture of a Eurobabe every week and see what kind of reactions she elicits. I will post girls that can not be found in Sbando's wonderful index. Nobody can compete with that.

I have a question for the moderators: is this the right forum for this kind of thing, or should I continue such a series of posts, called "Eurobabe of the week", in the "star crossed" forum?

I was also toying with another idea. Maybe I should post head to heads: pictures of two girls, who can be compared to each other. I know Americans like competitions and polls, so maybe the head to head idea will elicit more response? What do you think?

I had debated whether to move this thread to Star Crossed when it appeared, but decided against it. As I read your idea of "Eurobabe of the week" (before reading your question), I immediately thought, "I better ask Walter to put this into Star Crossed".

So...I think that it's a great idea, and it belongs in Star Crossed.

thanks for the reply Walter. How about Kathy Marceau? I know this brunette from The Bodyguard, Top Models videos. plus I found her in Anal Taboo (Rosebud). Sbando told me that she used a different name in europe. ..BTW Betty can also be found in Casting 12.

Kathy Marceau also used the name Kataline. That is not very helpful information, since Kataline is a very common name for East European porn stars.

Beside the videos you mentioned, I have seen Kathy in two videos directed by Michel Ricaud for VMD. They are Offertes à tout n° 3 and Délit de séduction .

Here is a picture of Kathy, as she appeared on the box of Anal Taboo :

It's a good idea, and we talked a lot about French porn in this thread which was nice

German porn gets discussed more often and that's a good thing, I feel it has something really different to offer.

I'd really like to read/learn more about Italian and Spanish porn (and porn actresses) both of those countries have a healthy and productive porn industry and never seem to get mentioned on ADT.
