Quotes:
Lucy "Lace" Liebowitz: When I was young, I said, "I have to lose my virginity." So I did. Then I thought, "I wanna have an orgasm." So I accomplished that. Then I figured, "What's next? Multiple orgasms!" And I did it. Incredible! But then I wondered what could top all that. Now I've got my family, and it's beautiful. There's never a dull moment. more

A surprisingly charming movie, 7 July 2006
7/10
Author: jic-1 from Camberley, England

Before you view this Troma-distributed mockumentary, it's easy to imagine that you are about to see a bawdy, campy, semi-ironic soft porn movie. If that is the movie you want to see, then you will be disappointed. However, what you will see is a gentle, charming story that, despite its porn industry setting, contains surprisingly little gratuitous nudity.

This is not a wacky, laugh-a-minute comedy; rather, Writer/Director Peter Shushtari has chosen to take the route of low-key comedy-drama. The cast of little-known actors deliver performances which fit perfectly into the mock-documentary style, as does the funny but believable dialogue. This movie is well worth your time.
