      Pablo Villaça Cinema em Cena Uma oportunidade interessante de acompanharmos astros da pornografia se desnudando de uma maneira diferente e bem mais reveladora, embora acabe concentrando-se apenas nos casos de sucesso e ignorando aqueles que foram destrudos no processo.

      Audience Member Something different to watch, this was interesting, fun, strange and also reveals some stories, facts and facets of the porn industry and the people in them. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member good doc and concept Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member The documentary surrounding the making of a book featuring 30 porn stars in the same pose, whilst being nude in one and clothed in the other. Featuring a host of talking heads, all of whom contributed a chapter to the book and offering some incites from some of the 'stars', why they do pornography and how they got into pornography. I can't help but feel that this a a largely sanitised look at the adult industry, after all most of the performers featured are all big names in the industry, some of them even household names, so there seems to be a deliberate avoidance of the seedier side of the industry. I don't feel that this offers any real insight into the industry but it certainly allowed the performers to present themselves in a more realistic, and maybe sympathetic, light on screen then they normally would. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Most are afraid to admit it, but almost everyone has seen a porno. However, due to the nature of the porn those involved in it are seen as nothing but pieces of glamorized meat. Thinking XXX is a thoughtful look into a handful of some of the most renowned stars in that industry looking at their personal side, as photographer Greenfield-Sanders photographs them for a book. Along with thoughts from writers about the essence of pornography and its role in society, this earnest portrait puts a face to the often seen, but rarely humanized characters that are part of so many peoples private lives. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting. As a documentary about a series of photo shoots, this is not a terribly interesting film. However, the producers managed to get some writers and social commentators, to give interviews on their thoughts about sex and porn in contemporary culture. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked this documentary. It was very insightful as to the life that porn stars live and the likely lives they grew up with to get to this point. But to be honest it was a little sad. I felt an atmosphere of resignation in each persons voice that seemed to colour the concept of porn as either art or simply acceptable fun while in the same light as dead end jobs or the un-educated. Add to that the fact that porn stars are sick and tired (and a little sore) of sex when they get home to their lover and don't get to enjoy wild romps of passion with them due to sex burn out. With all that said, I think they left out too much. We didn't hear from Ron Jeremy at all and there were no negative comments on past porn stars or people who were trying to avoid that portion of their lives (Traci Lords, you should have had a bit to say in this documentary) Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
