Bertrand Bonello - Le Pornographe (2001)

A well-known adult film-maker from '70s is brought out of semi-retirement by the offer of a job that will earn him some much needed cash. Unwilling to compromise his style and embrace the the changes that 30 years' worth of developments have bought about, his experience in the modern world of porn movies forces him to reasses his life and the relationships he has with friends and family. (-DVD cover)




This controversial French film, starring legendary actor, Jean-Pierre Leaud caused outrage when the British film censors insisted that an 11-second sequence be removed from one of the film's sex scenes. When released in its native France, The Pornographer could be seen in its fully uncut version by anyone over 16 years old. (-DVD cover)




Bertrand Bonello, the film's director commented, "I am very surprised and upset. The film has been sold in over twelve countries and this is the first time such a thing happens. With the fine cast of this film, does it make all these people pornographers? - We are all pornographers." (-DVD cover)




The film received the prestigious FIPRESCI award at Cannes Film Festival 2001, and has gained critical acclaim from the international film festival circuit. (-DVD cover)




Jacques Laurent made pornographic films in the 1970's and '80's, but had put that aside for 20 years. His artistic ideas, born of the '60's counter-culture, had elevated the entire genre. Older and paunchier, he is now directing a porno again. Jacques's artistry clashes with his financially-troubled producer's ideas about shooting hard-core sex. Jacques has been estranged from his son Joseph for years, since the son first learned the nature of the family business. They are now speaking again. Joseph and his friends want to recapture the idealism of 1968 with a protest. Separated from his wife, Jacques strives for personal renewal with plans to build a new house by himself… (http://imdb.com/title/tt0262699/plotsummary)




Now in his late-fifties/early-sixties Leaud is still a fine actor who hits all the right notes in his performance as an aging pornographer. Leaud plays Jacques, a pornographer that had a slew of hits in the seventies but has retired. He now has a wife and an adult son (Jeremie Renier, Dardenne-"L'Enfant") he rarely speaks too, but decides to return to making movies. Problem is, porn has changed since Jacques was making it and he's not able to make it the way he wants it too. As his world falls apart around him, Jacques begins to reexamine himself and, in the process, begins to lose his mind. The movie is actually a really good character study. (www.amazon.com)
