    Search Movies based off adult industry

    Hi there,

    So I LOVE watching movies plus I'm in the adult industry so movies about the adult industry fascinate me.

    I would love to hear movies you suggest that are relevant to anything adult industry! It can be t.v. shows, documentaries, or movies! Let's hear 'em! I'll compile a more official list once we get more input!

    I just watched "Girl 6" and was actually pretty impressed with it since I'm considering going into the phone sex business.

    a few others:

    "Pretty Woman" A classic about escorts.

    "Jenna Jameson: True HollyWood Story" Her book is way better, but this is great if you don't want to read it.

    "Heroes" - the first episode is a camgirl, I haven't seen much more yet, but I'm pretty interested.




    would love to hear what you've seen as I need something new to watch!

    Have you seen "Boogie Nights"? Its a well reviewed/regarded movie about filming porn in the 70s and 80s. Starring Mark Wahlberg, Burt Reynolds, Julianne Moore, John C. Reilly, Heather Graham, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Don Cheadle, William H. Macy

    I was going to say Boogie Nights but there are others. Inside Deep Throat is a documentary produced by none other than Ron Howard about the movie and the porn industry. A tv movie I saw years ago was called Shattered Innocense and it was about Shauna Grant. Apparently a lot of it was fictionalized. There was also Wonderland about the Wonderland murders that John Holmes as involved in.

    I liked "Closer." It's not centered on the adult industry, but one of the main characters is a stripper.

    Sasha Grey has a film called "The Girlfriend Experience" about a call girl's life. A lot of people hate it because of her acting style and the directors taste for "experimental film," but I thought it was interesting enough.

    I'm wondering how the new Playboy Club series is going to be...

    In terms of series there's always "Secret Dairy of a Call Girl". "Satisfaction" is an Australian series about 232-a high end city brothel in Melb', the girls, their lives & their clients. "Underbelly-The Golden Mile/Underbelly-Razor" are also Australian and both touch on this theme. "The Playboy Club" (new & not exactly about the adult industry-focuses on the bunnies/patrons of the original Playboy Club in 1960).

    Tangentially speaking, "8 MM" with Nicolas Cage and James Gandolfini spent a lot of time exploring the shadows of the adult entertainment industry. It was ultimately about "porn turned snuff" and was very unsettling but it did contain a scene or two featuring an acquaintance of mine that were critical to the story.

    Boogie Nights was a good one. It's a pretty good take on an industry that is now only a mere shadow of what it once was. I also like Diary of a Call Girl as far as series go. G-string Divas was great but doesn't appear to show up in reruns too often. LOL, I love the scenes from the Sopranos at the "Badda Bing!". 8mm is very dark but it definitely draws you in. I don't know if movies about snuff films are everyone's cup of tea But Nicholas Cage, James Gandolfini and Joaquin Pheonix are all great in it. Down right creepy...

    Yeah, this was a good one!

    I personally didn't care much for The Girlfriend Experience by the way. Sasha Grey has all the acting chops of plant food. She was better playing herself in Entourage last season...

    This Girl's Life is very good drama about a porn star. Her life from her point of view. I have some criticisms of it but interesting. Plus Rosario Dawson is in it!

    Pretty Baby- set in early 1900's Storyville New orleans tells of a teenage prostitute growing up in a brothel. It was inspired by Bellocq's photographs of the prostitutes in storyville. directed by louis malle staring brooke sheilds
    Whore- a very harsh film about a prostitute that I have only seen once. Directed by ken russel. is about a street walker. this one definantly plays into sterotypes.
    The life or Yo Puta- intercuts interviews with prostitutes from around the world with the fictional story of a young grad student getting into prostitution. stars denise richards.

    Ah, but the Giesha's were not prostitutes (although they did border on it in some areas).
    Geisha have been confused with the Edo period's high-class courtesans known as oiran, from whom they evolved. Like geisha, oiran wore elaborate hairstyles and white makeup, but oiran knotted their obi in the front. It has been commonly thought the obi was tied that way for easy removal, though anthropologist Liza Dalby has suggested that it was because it was the practice of married women at the time.[citation needed]
    During the Edo period, prostitution was legal. Prostitutes such as the oiran worked within walled-in districts licensed by the government. In the late eighteenth century, dancing women called "odoriko" and newly popular female geisha began entertaining men at banquets in unlicensed districts

    Really Excellent Movies and TV Shows:
    Exotica. I can't really explain this movie. It's incredibly strange, complex and haunting. A lot of the story centers around a strip club in Toronto. Mysterious Skin and Gardens of the Night are both very beautiful, intense movies about prostitution. They both could be criticized for promoting the stereotypical correlation between childhood abuse and sex work but still portray a certain "mood" that rang very true for me about the darker side of this industry.

    Lilja 4-ever is about a young girl in Estonia who is forced to work as a prostitute and is subsequently trafficked to Sweden. Ok so I feel like people (the government, Ashton Kutcher) latch on to stuff like this and use it to hurt consenting sex workers but I'm still including it anyways (as relevant) because it's a really really good movie. Also, Sex Traffic is an amazing two part British-Canadian tv series about, well, the title is pretty self explanatory. If you are a fan of The Wire I would especially recommend this.

    Dollhouse!!!! Joss Whedon tv show. People have their memories and personalities erased and exist in a doll like state in underground "dollhouses" and rich people pay to have their perfect personality downloaded into the dolls so they can take them on romantic engagements. Firefly also has a courtesan as one of the main characters.

    Pretty Good Movies:
    Accomplices is a french movie about a call boy who is murdered and his girlfriend who he recruits to work with him. It definitely does not have a realistic feel to it but it is very entertaining none the less. Enter the Void is about a junkie living in Japan who is murdered by the cops and his bond with his sister who is a stripper. This movie is....well it's a whole lot of things. It's brilliant and tedious and very, very complicated. It is directed by Gaspar Noe, who also directed Irreversible.

    Stuff Worth Checking Out:
    I am a Sex Addict is a pretentious, obnoxious, compelling, revolting, and powerful autobiographical "documentary" about a man who is obsessed with prostitutes. This movie changed my life, and I'm not really sure what that says about me. In the same narcissistic vein is the Showtime tv show I Can't Believe I'm Still Single, which I recommend much less affectionately. Women in Trouble is more of a campy parody of sex work, but it is absolutely hilarious. It's several different vignettes starring the female cast of Friday Night Lights and Entourage playing porn stars and escorts.

    "The Wrestler" with Mickey Rourke was about a wrestler with a dancer girlfriend struggling with a lot of the same issues he was. I believe she was played by Marisa Tomei.

    Welcome to the Rileys. It's got Kristen Stewart in it. Some parts are a little unreal, but I found it to be pretty interesting in general.
