Review of After Porn Ends (2012) by D M — 12 Jan 2013
A documentary which shows where a handful of ex-porn stars have ended up after that career ends. Discussed are how they ended up in porn and why they got out as well elaborating on other parts of their life.
A wide spectrum of personalities here with some totally rejecting their past (Crissy Moran is an anti-porn Christian activist, Houston has lost jobs as well as the respect of her daughter because of her past, and Roxy runs an anti-porn organization) yet others embracing it (Nina Hartley still is a major figure in the business).
Some have started new careers (Tyffany Million is a bounty hunter and Mary Carey is a reality TV star; super-hot Raylene who talks of how her son saved her from that life must not have succeeded in real estate because she is back making movies as is Seka - the last two bits of info I have garnered through my own "research").
Others are completely retired (Asia Carrera is a single mom who moved to a small Utah town for its conservative-values). Also interviewed are the children of the "stars" as well as some directors, producers, writers, etc from the business.
Most say they are happy with the decisions they have made, yet Luke Ford rightly points out no one really knows what torment goes on in another's head. A great point made is that "X is forever", these people can never escape their work because porn is so ingrained in our society.
The Jewish influence in porn is extremely evident throughout this film. Pretty interesting.
