I always thought Joanna Storm was about the most natural in front of the camera.She played lots of different roles but you could never tell which was the real Joanna.All of her scenes she seemed to really enjoy herself and I read in a magazine when they weren`t shooting she prefered hanging out with the crew over the stars.She sure was pretty.

Some here have praised performers who were "natural in front of a camera". That's all well and good but it doesn't constitute good acting, let's be honest. Btw, am I the only one who thinks Georgina Spelvin, though good, was a bit overrated and didn't have that great a range?

Inari Vachs does a very good acting job in the film The Awakening. She is playing a character based on the late Golden Age porn star Kristine Heller. The film is directed by Paul Thomas and Heller was his ex gf who committed suicide in 1989. Kobe Tai is also fairly good in it.

Although very few pornstars have crossed over to mainstream some have done it successfully. Michelle Bauer began her career as Pia Snow and is in the original Bad Girls with Anna Ventura, et al. Jewel Shepard began her acting career in Collection Video 107 with Mike Horner. Then of course there is Traci "I'm Banned At VEF"" Lords who has done some credible work in television and in movies. However, there is probably more work to be found behind the camera for ex-porn performers. Many retrain and work in make up and hair styling or as camera operators, grips, etc.
If you have talent, then being in a porno won't kill your career. Helen Mirren, John Gielgud, Malcom McDowell and Peter O'Toole were all in Caligula and they somehow found work after that film. Michael Douglas and Richard Dreyfuss learned to direct by making low budget pornos. Michelle Bauer : http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000292/ Jewel Shepard : http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0791636/ Traci Lords : http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000183/ |

I agree with Doyle in post #29. Spelvin was a very good actress, porn or not. She certainly did a variety and range of strange characters and was believable in all of them.

Even where I went to school in the burbs, the teachers wore mini skirts and skin tight tops ( often braless). This was normal then. There was tons of sexploitation movies, sex, cocaine, and dance clubs became synonymous.( Platos. Studio 54 etc...) Bob Guccione became celebrity status due to Penthouse being the anti-Playboy magazine that went mainstream. His wealth bought him a lot of clout in those days, even in Hollywood. Which is really why Caligula came to be. Hollywood was ripe for an X-rated mainstream feature then. I dont ever see that happening again. Michael Douglas learned to direct by making pornos? Why didnt he just hang out at the sets with his dad? I mean directing wasnt his thing, producing and acting was, so I thought. IMDB, shows he only has directed one episode of the TV show " Streets of San Francisco." |

She's ok in Devil in Miss Jones and Desires Within Young Girls but, well, she's a bit mannered and overwrought in both, really.

IMDb also shows Dreyfuss with only one directing credit, a short film done in 1995. Now he was in the movie Inserts, which is about a young director fallen on hard times and makes porn films to make ends meet.

Thanks for the info TCO. But there's this. They must not have learned the craft too well or didn't like it too much if they only have one official director's credit.
