Shot-on-video in 1983, directed by the late Bobby Hollander, and, technically, pretty good – all things considered for that time, Personal Touch, www.deepthroat.com; www.deepthroatenergy.com, stars also the late Shauna Grant who committed suicide a year later.
And it might be porn’s first attempt at Gonzo. If not, it’s certainly one of the first to feature the cast conversing squarely into the camera.
And who can say if Personal Touch isn’t featuring the first anal creampie, as well? But you certainly have one as a young Ron Jeremy digs deep into Misty Rain’s butthole, while leaving a substantial load gurgling in her shit well. Jeremy later gets a blowjob from Jean Harlow, a blond performer who always had that post-op vibe about her.
Looking squarely into the lens, Hollander, in opening remarks proclaims in many which ways how this movie’s a new way of doing things and is going to blow your balls off. Hollander also informs us that Grant, originally a men’s mag model, has the cutest pink asshole you ever saw.
Then Grant, his protege at the time, goes on to perform with Paul Thomas. Something must have happened behind the scenes because Grant and Thomas’ coupling is shot entirely in softcore giving one pause to wonder whether certain equipment wasn’t operating that day.
AIM’s Sharon Mitchell’s, who later traded her stilettos for a white lab coat, is also featured- once in a brief lesbo scissors lock with then-newcomer, Dominique, and later with Blake Palmer. At this time of his porn career, Palmer looks young enough to have been grabbed by a talent crew out of a high school cafeteria. And Jeremy’s physique is also worthy of a 24-year comparison.
