Although pornographic films have been around since the late 1800s, even having a near-mainstream surge in popularity in the early ’70s thanks to films like 1972’s “Deep Throat” and provocateurs like Andy Warhol, major films about the pornography business took a lot longer to gain mass appeal. Early works, like Paul Schrader’s 1979 “Hardcore,” treated the industry as dark and sinister. But things lightened up considerably with the honest and heartfelt depiction of the adult films and the people who make them in Paul Thomas Anderson’s 1997 hit “Boogie Nights,” which earned plenty of awards buzz. From there the floodgates opened, from broad comedies (2004’s “The Girl Next Door”) to rom-coms (2008’s “Zack and Miri Make a Porno”) to complex biopics (2013’s “Lovelace”). To coincide with the release of Sean Baker’s acclaimed indie “Red Rocket,” about a down-on-his-luck adult actor returning to his Texas hometown, Variety has selected the top 10 movies about porn stars.
This buzzy biopic-courtroom drama of late “Hustler” mastermind Larry Flynt focuses on the pornographer’s numerous First Amendment cases, as well as his recovery from an assassination attempt and relationship with stripper-turned-“Hustler” publisher Althea Leasure. Despite the subject matter and numerous controversies in Flynt’s personal life, Woody Harrelson was nominated for Best Actor at the Academy Awards for the title role, while an electric Courtney Love surprised audiences with her complex portrayal of Althea.
Trey Parker wrote, directed and stars in this broad comedy about a cash-strapped Mormon who accidentally becomes a porn star, thanks to his portrayal of an X-rated superhero. Although Parker himself might not be a household name, the television show he co-created with his “Orgazmo” co-star Matt Stone — “South Park” — has made him one of the wealthiest entertainers ever. In fact, the film opened just weeks after the controversial and hugely-successful debut of the series. “Orgazmo” mines plenty of Farrelly brothers-esque hijinks, and themes that would be better developed in the duo’s sublime musical “The Book of Mormon.” But this film has enough raunchy, “Let’s put on a show!” enthusiasm to elevate it from curio status.
Bob Fosse’s final film followed the real-life rise of Playboy model Dorothy Stratten, portrayed by Mariel Hemingway, and brutal murder by her husband, played by Eric Roberts. A grim departure from Fosse’s typical fare, the movie faced criticism and lawsuits from many of the people portrayed onscreen — including Hugh Hefner and Peter Bogdanovich — but it remains a dynamic portrait of a tragedy in the world of nude modeling.
A horror movie set in the world of modern sex work, “Cam” stars a fearless Madeline Brewer as Alice, who becomes “Lola” when camming for fans. Playing with themes of identity and fame, Brewer’s performance blurs the lines of fantasy and reality as Alice begins seeing a Lola doppelgänger that jeopardizes her quest to become the No. 1 most popular cam girl. A trippy, unflinching ride, writer Isa Mazzei makes the story sing with details she picked up while working as a cam model herself.
This raunchy rom-com brought Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks together as two friends falling in love as they hustle to pay the bills through shooting porn. Directed by Kevin Smith, the lighthearted, featherweight comedy merged the raunchy sensibilities of his own View Askewniverse with in-vogue Apatow Productions, bringing actors from both camps into one movie. Although it was a box office flop, it seems destined to be cult classic date night fare for couples willing to walk on the wild side.
Paul Schrader wrote and directed this spiritual companion piece to “Taxi Driver,” another dive into a dark world of sex and violence. But this film follows a father, played by George C. Scott, who sets out to find his missing daughter after coming across a porno in which she appears. Like many Schrader joints, there isn’t subtlety in this world — as illustrated by the tagline on the film’s poster: “Oh my God, that’s my daughter.” Despite the campier moments, Scott’s performance is strong as a man grappling with faith as he get too deep in the world of pornography.
Lynn Shelton’s funny, shambling look at male friendship stars Mark Duplass and Joshua Leonard as two straight bros who lose touch and, through a series of escalating ideas at a party, decide to film an x-rated film together as a piece of art to submit to the HUMP! film festival, a real-life Seattle amateur porn competition. This low-budget gem was cobbled together over 10 days for $20,000, and the improvised dialogue gives an ease to some of the uncomfortable conversations and sexual dynamics within.
Shane Black’s hardboiled comedy brings a tough guy enforcer (Russell Crowe) and a hapless private eye (Ryan Gosling, in total goofball mode) together to solve a knotty, noir-ish crime involving a porn star named Misty Mountains and a mysterious adult film named “How Do You Like My Car, Big Boy?” After an explosive opening scene leaves Misty dead, her tragic end keeps the duo focused on the crime, even as hijinks and bad luck surrounds them. Featuring one of the funniest adults-only parties committed to film, “The Nice Guys” is a blissed-out ride through the underbelly of ’70s Los Angeles.
Sean Baker’s portrait of faded porn star Mikey Saber feels like a southern-fried Safdie brothers movie, a ticking clock examining how far a man can fall from grace. Simon Rex plays Mikey as a magnificent fuckboi, charismatic until he’s cruel, sweet until he’s violent, a braggart who probably doesn’t even know what’s true anymore. Falling on hard times after a lengthy run at the top of the XXX game, he returns to his desolate Texas hometown to try to reconcile with his estranged wife and start a new life. But from grooming a teen to be the next big porn star to selling drugs to the wrong people, Mikey soon finds himself persona non grata to everyone around. Baker’s sharp script and visually arresting direction leave you rooting for all of the characters, even as their intentions grow increasingly dark.
Paul Thomas Anderson’s masterful look at the adult film scene in the San Fernando Valley is a meticulously made look at ’70s culture, decadence and the entertainment industry, as a career-best Mark Wahlberg takes the city by storm as the massively endowed porn star Dirk Diggler. Wahlberg is surrounded by a stable of brilliant actors, able to find the humanity within the larger-than-life personalities and hangers-on swirling around Dirk, from a splashy late career performance by Burt Reynolds to a heartbreaking turn from Julianne Moore. Add a perfect soundtrack, beautiful camerawork from frequent PTA collaborator Robert Elswit and a late ’90s audience that was game to embrace a sprawling porn epic, and a big, bright, shining star of a movie was born.
Star 80 has nothing to do with porn. Dorothy Stratten was not a porn star. What the hell is wrong with you people?
Trump should get a honorably mention on here since he cheated on Melania while she was having his baby banging porn star Stormy Daniels!
Wonderland should be on the list rather than Star 80.
I am soo excited with this to do my work that sit i hope you are satisfied with my speech
