Good read - thanks.

More succinctly, I miss the notion that porn could be “high art”.

Hi, Thanks for the perspective. I understand that exploitation is and may always be a problem with porn. It’s not just porn - power and money - Weinstein / Epstein - Hollywood and the music industry all suffer from the money / power perversion. The sins in the making of Caligula fall squarely in this category in my opinion. “High art” may have been poor wording, but relative to shorter format works, at least there was an attempt at telling a story or saying something - if poorly and only for pretext. I guess I miss the pretext (and it was only ever pretext) of saying something more than “jerk away fellas”. VHS kind of killed that. Reading Roger Ebert’s review of “Green Door” ( he slammed it because It devolved to graphic sex, loosing the plot), I agree with his lamentation that Stanley Kubrick didn’t make a full length porn. That may have actually been high art - A Clockwork Orange with a psych-sexual plot without using camera angles to maintain an R rating. if you know of anything that will stimulate both the big and little head, let me know! I’m always looking for interesting things that make me think. This long winded post is the result of yours making me think - I hope it is received in the spirit of dialog with which it was written. Also, thanks for taking the time to post the pics. She really was special, and one of the pioneers of women porn stars “owning it”. She kind of defines my “type” - girl next door with a natural body and a bit of bush who is uninhibited and knows what she wants when the cloths come off.

Porn was a high art form shown in movie theaters (late). My first porn star crush was Marylin Chambers and “Green Door”, but my memory of the closest thing to a full budget Hollywood porn was “Caligula”.
