People often write me or ask me where they can find films that are sexually explicit but do not have the look or feel of porn films. Until now, there have been few examples of that, the best of them being the films that were made in the 1970s by Exodus Trust and erotic filmmaker, Laird Sutton. I had the tremendous privilege and honor of having been Laird Sutton's last student assistant before he retired. When I first saw the Comstock Films, I made the same connection to Laird's films that many of the other reviewers had noted. They have that same sensitivity of camera, an ability to portray human sexuality and sexual images in a way that is a thing of beauty.
Comstock Films offers award-winning erotic documentary films about real couples, having real sex. Its mission is to acknowledge the role of sex in human relationships, depict it graphically, and celebrate the power and joy of sexual pleasure and emotional intimacy. They are what sexologists have called "sexual patterning films." These are sexually explicit films, but they don't use actors following a script. These films depict couples who are not just two people who got together to make a film, these are lovers with on-going relationships sharing with you how they pleasure each other.
Comstock Films offers a genuinely new erotic vision of couples' sexuality in this groundbreaking and award-winning series of explicit documentary-style features of real-life lovers having real sex. It's not art, not pornography, but a cinematic exploration and celebration of the very human experience of sex.
Truly adult depictions of explicit sexuality are all but absent from the cinematic landscape, and, when they do appear they are inevitably contextualized by despair or ennui. Indeed, "intent to arouse" is often cited as the dividing line between art and porn. Of all the emotions a director might hope to induce in an audience, arousal remains the last taboo - a taboo Tony Comstock gleefully breaks. There are no coy angles in Comstock Films productions; no fades to black. Visually, these films are the collision of sex and the moving image rendered as pure joy. But the impact is not limited to what we see: "Flesh without context is of no more interest to me than sex without love," says Comstock. "In my films, context is provided by an intimate conversation with each couple that is, in some ways, more revealing than the sex."
Some people may question how educational these or any sexually explicit films could be, given the distractive nature of the material itself, but these films have made a believer out of me. My view is that there is so much information on so many levels in each of these films that they will speak to just about anybody on his or her level, and subsequent viewings of these films tend to produce fresh insights even after several viewings.
As Ram Dass pointed out in Be Here Now, "If you walk down the street and you're hungry, all you see is what's edible. If you walk down the street and you're horny, all you see is what's make-able." Because we tend to see only what we are looking for, we will automatically miss most of what these films have to say simply because we are not looking for most of that information. In other words, these films give people exactly the information they can have now without bothering them with the rest, and I can't even imagine a more efficient and practical way to educate people about sex or anything else.
In spite of their educational content, these films are as well done as any on the XXX market and are as hot as any of them - all the more so for featuring real people in real private homes. If you are going to start an erotic film collection, this is where to start.
