Richard Kern is one of the few pornographers who gets to shoot hardcore while retaining his artistic and indie cred (it’s easy to have indie credibility but harder to be talented too).
For all my attempts to present the unvarnished business end of porn, this short documentary makes being a jizz-bizz shooter seem like everything you’ve always masturbated to thought it was.
Sophie, Kern’s subject and his fan, is too good to be true and if central casting sent me someone with her Amélie-meets-Emmanuelle French accent I’d accuse them of over-egging the pudding and ask them to provide me with a more realistic sex-kitten. She’s never been naked on camera before and by the time Kern’s charmed her clothes off she’s happily posing for a porn magazine she can’t name.
Drink it in.
