The Best of J. Brian
Score: 0.0
Genre:
Year: 1993-01-01
This well-edited and narrated retrospective of gay fuck flick pioneer filmmaker J. Brian (Brian J. Donohue) sparkles precisely because of what it lacks: the artist himself, speaking in his own words. This serious omission allows the artist's work to speak both for him and for itself, and allows the viewer a freshness unencumbered by bias. The work, five films and seven vignettes, speaks loudly of J. Brian's vision of youth, sexual freedom, and naturalism unfettered by society or its constraints.
