Porn Valley- James Bartholet, who plays Reuben in This Ain’t The Partridges XXX www.adultfyi.com/read.php?ID=28529 was saying that he was going to have some mainstream stars visit the Friday shoot at the LFP studios.
“But they don’t want any press around,” he says. Only Bartholet wouldn’t say who the celebrities were. But one of them isn’t Danny Bonaduce. Nonetheless, Bartholet anticipates another long day of shooting and said Tuesday’s session went until 11 pm.
“We were getting all the music-stuff,” notes Bartholet complimenting director Will Ryder [pictured] who’s also scoring the music for the Not the Partridges feature.
“People are not giving this man enough credit but he’s a very good song writer,” continues Bartholet.
“He wrote some songs and they performed with a soundtrack and I swear to God, he told me he was watching ESPN Sports Center and he was writing these things on his piano at home. I said this is as good as anything I’ve heard. These are real good, pop, easy listening songs. This is really, really good.
“I told him I was going to give it to John Oates, Stephen Bishop, all my other buddies that are pop stars. I’m going to have them listen to this thing. I go you’ve got some really good stuff here.”
“When he does this high school musical porn-thing, there’s going to be some great music there,” Bartholet adds. “We could probably sell a separate DVD just with the soundtrack. His stuff is that good. I’m very thrilled and very excited to be involved with this Partridges project. It’s going to be that great of a movie.”
According to Bartholet, he’s also got a mainstream project coming up in which he’s supposed to play Dean Martin in a Rat Pack flick taking place in Palm Springs.
“You’re going to have tough shoes to fill after Joe Montegna,” I tell Bartholet reminding him of the Rat Pack movie shot for HBO.
“He was so good in that,” agrees Bartholet. “He really had the character down, but I’ve played Dean Martin before for some things. And the only thing I’ve told them is you’re going to have to get a wig on me. Here we go with the wig again.”
“On Wikipedia they’re going to have to have a special box- who wore more wigs in their career, you or Bruce Willis,” I comment.
“Well, I’ve worn more wigs in porn than anybody,” Bartholet laughs.
