Ask any person what they did during the pandemic. They will likely tell you a few hobbies and new interests. Perhaps they learned how to make kombucha or made their own. Maybe they were like me and collected vintage pornography posters.
My fascination with Golden Age pornography predates the outbreak. A few years ago I read The Other Hollywood and have been listening to The Rialto Report podcast since then. However, it wouldn't be true to say that my fascination is academic. It is interesting to learn about the history of Golden Age pornography, but it's also the porn that I like to watch.
If you listen to the Rialto Report, youll notice a common theme: A lot of the actors started out as aspiring stage, TV, or film talent, and began performing in live sex shows, loops, andeventuallyfull-length pornographic features to make quick cash. Many performers believed that straight cinema and smut would merge into one industry. However, that didn't happen. This is tragic because it would have been much easier to unite pornsomething Andrea Trues and Harry Reems triedan industry that would greatly benefit worker protections.
Some Golden Age stars weren't capital-A ActorsPlatinum Princess Seka freely admitted to being more of an actor than a thespian, but they all took their work seriously. The legal requirement that pornography must be artistically merited led to a boom in blue movies with production and plot value.
These skin tricks have given me a lot of opinions and thoughts, so I am also able to make recommendations. This list doesn't include Deep Throat or Debbie Does Dallas or Behind the Green Door. These are not only well-known, but many people also know them. I find Behind the Green Door boring and Barbara Broadcast's salad dressing moment too boring. I love both food AND sex, but do not like the mixing of them.
Vinegar syndrome has beautifully restored Blu-Rays if you're interested in any of these films. You can find a lot of these movies on various porn-streaming sites (especially tubepornclassic.com), but theyre rarely hosted on one site for very long, and rarely listed by name. You can sometimes find them by searching the names of the actors, but that is not always the best way to locate them. You might find streaming sites with poor quality. This is because these movies were originally shot on film.
