As you might guess, I rather enjoy talking about porn and erotic film. It is such a rich, complex and controversial subject. As such, last night’s Sex City was a great experience.
First, Christopher Zeischegg, aka Danny Wylde, opened up for all of us, telling us why he had to leave his porn career and why he decided to make a different return to filmed sex with his partner. Very moving.
Then I had a great time talking to Kitty Stryker all about porn parody films. It is a huge and still-growing genre in porn that Kitty notes is accessible because of the humour and familiarity with characters.
Finally, Paul Deeb sheds some light on his process in breaking the fourth wall of film in his Feminist Porn Award-winning short film Trains. His unconventional technique results in a stunning and compelling narrative that is a treat and well deserving of the title “Sexiest Short.”
