A strong love story from director Dwight Antoine and Black Forest Productions centers around long-time lovers Gene Lamar and Damien Michaels swapping stimulating stories to reinvigorate their sex life!

The video stands out in its explicit discussion of the AIDS crisis in its narrative, as the couple shares ideas about how to keep their sexual relationship exciting — and safe. They decide that exchanging erotic tales is a sure-fire way to heat things up, and focus in on one very popular men’s room and all the naughty encounters they and their friends had there in past days of ample anonymous sex.

The film segues into a series of flashbacks to that infamous public john, with its plentiful cruising, gloryhole action, sucking, fucking, and jacking off! Worked up by their tales, Lamar and Michaels kiss and make love in a romantic finale.

This feature is a great example of Black Forest’s signature blend of creativity, playfulness, social commentary, and strong sexuality. It finds thoughtful ways to integrate discussions of relationships, anonymous sex, and safer sex into its storyline (though depicted sex does not feature condoms), and also features potent chemistry and erotic enthusiasm among its attractive cast members, with couplings exuding genuine joy and pleasure. A refreshing warmth and a sense of humor are present throughout, along with tenderness between the men, even during the naughty raunch of anonymous cruising/hook-up sequences.

This video has been newly remastered in 2024 by BIJOU for the best quality release yet available of this classic!

“As the lovers, Lamar and Michaels are first rate, both theatrically and sexually. The contrast between their first unfulfilled scene and their libidinous last is choice. Ty Jones is excellent as the guy who gives totally until he comes, then shuts off the charm and exits without a backward glance. Robert James skillfully portrays a mixture of vacillating fear and desire. Opano More’s orgasm graphically washes over his body with convulsively involuntary twitching, which is rarely seen in porn. Burt Noardman and Steven A. Love provide one of the most sexually wrenching moments as cock and lips prepare to initiate the newly made gloryhole.” ~ Manshots

Curator's Note: PinkLabel.TV is curated by its creator Shine Louise Houston based on a set of criteria that aims to expand our notions of adult film. Our collection includes erotic and adult videos that often exist outside of conventional pornography, whether in depictions of bodies and desires that are underrepresented in commercial porn, through titles with historical cultural relevance, or movies with original concepts and cinematic craft. With these factors taken into consideration, we hope you appreciate the film.
