Storyline
Featured review
Simplistic Brit porn, not up to current standards.
This 2006 British porn video seems primitive compared to the glossy efforts of recent years, probably because the local industry was then just coming out of the doldrums with the advent of licensed retail stores devoted to explicit material.
But some important faces make the scene, notably my favorite Michelle Thorne fronting as hostess. Each of six sex segments has her laboriously reciting the same text, namely that she, and co-star Laura Michaels, have parlayed their success as Adult actresses into a lucrative career running a modest London brothel.
The issue of "are porn performers actually prostitutes?", an age-old debate, has been on my mind lately as each time I looked up an interesting or unfamiliar Adult actress I found "working as an escort" in L.A. or Vegas as part of the resume. Sure sounds like prostitution to me.
Yet here they repeat proudly over and over as if this were a documentary and they weren't acting at all, that Michelle and Laura are madams. In addition, one of the vignettes is reserved for them to have lesbian sex for the benefit of a customer who just likes to watch & tug - he looks like a real guy off the street and converts the film into a pro-am at least for that segment.
Also prominently featured are some top names in the business: Michelle B, Paige Ashley and Daisy Rock. Each one humps a john on a couch in Thorne's apartment, the format proving to be quite repetitive. Several co-stars were recognizable from a classic Tanya Hyde feature "Underworld": Danny Mountain, Lala and aforementioned Michelle B.
The realistic approach -let's just watch prostitutes hump, is uninteresting but being a sucker for Brit porn I was able to sit through it all without hitting the old fast-forward mechanism. Distributor Pumpkin has a number of titles still actively in circulation, but none of them appear too promising.
