| caroline-NL Member  543 Posts 3/07 |  Posted - Sep 8 2007 : 4:06PMIf I have to make a decision, which one is the best and most important porn movie, I would select "Fantasy" by Gerard Damiano. (1979) His "Deep Throat" is much more famous, but this is a porn movie with a message and it has also very sad moments - excluding the end. I also noticed Kyoto Sun for the first time, she really impressed me - and aroused me. I think its time for a criticial ( directors cut ) edition. If I compare this, to the near endless flood of "fucking-sucking-without-sense-porn", this movie is high art.  [Link] |

The only three Gerard Damiano titles I've seen were "Young Girls in Tight Jeans", "Candy's Little Sister Sugar" and "Splendor in the Ass". All were comical farces. So I'm interested to see this because it sounds very different. Edited by - Savoy on 9/9/2007 3:14:24 PM  [Link] |

Its no wonder, because the movie is dark and pessimistic, a parable about people, who all have nearly the same sexual fantasies, but dont dare to talk about it. Its a movie about the anonymous society, that disguises itself at a "fun society", but if you look behind this, or if you look into the heads, it isnt. I think Damiano also criticized the porn industry with this movie, because of all the illusions this pornbiz is using and abusing. He always wanted to shot a similiar movie, but no studio wanted to finance this. [Link] |
| Son of Dad Member 99 Posts 3/05 | Posted - Sep 10 2007 : 8:45PM It's an all around solid flick. One of my favorites from the golden age. It deserves to receive a high quality reissue. Unfortunately it probably doesn't have enough name recognition, such as Debbie Does Dallas, for any company to put the effort (and money) into it. [Link] |

That very calm demeanor he has is very charismatic. I'm wondering if that is just part of the style from that era. Seems the older male adult actors had a certain sexy tranquility about them. A stark contrast to the hyper, spazzed-out, sweaty, gonzo males that exists today. Brooke West was my favorite though. So very pretty and I love the way she delivered her monologue about her cheating husband. "Sometimes I fantasize that I am another woman fucking another man...." I wish more adult films dealt with the psychological and emotional aspects of sex. It's far more engaging. [Link] |

Sex World and Nothing to Hide are also great classics that everyone should check out if possible. [Link] |
