RETRO GAY PORN HISTORY: FOCUS ON DIRECTOR JERRY DOUGLAS
posted by Madam Bubby
Becoming one of the best directors in the 1990s because of his flare for unique drama and a command of narrative, Jerry Douglas actually began making films in the late 1970s, for example, The Back Row.
In 1970, the groundbreaking erotic play Score, which blatantly featured bisexuality, was playing in New York City's Martinique Theater. Jerry Douglas wrote and directed it. This play featured Sylvester Stallone in a brief role, as a telephone repairman.

Score was later made into a movie (1974, directed by Radley Metzger) which was later released in both soft-core and hard-core (male frontal nudity, fellatio, of course) versions. Cal Culver, aka the famous Casey Donovan, appeared as the male lead, the closeted gay husband, Eddy. (Click here to view the trailer for Score.)

Douglas made three films during that time, the Golden Age of Gay Porn, but did not begin making gay porn films again until twenty years later, in 1989, with Fratimony.
Concentrating on narrative, character development and good action, as well as hot sex action, Douglas brought the “coming out” process as a narrative to a greater, more realistic height of naturalism and spontaneity. Delving into his characters, thus not making typical loop-type flicks, he stressed reality and truism in his films.
His models won praise for their acting and even won best acting awards from various gay porn outfits (Tim Lowe, Michael Braun and Joey Stefano). His films Kiss-Off and More of a Man won best gay video awards in the past.

Featured Classic Gay DVD:
CASEY - D00124
This charming 1971 classic has a strong story centered around Casey (Casey Donovan in his first film appearance, as this was shot before Boys in the Sand) as a man searching to resolve conflicting inner needs and find physical release and a relationship with another human being. Casey talks to his alter ego, Wanda Uptight (played by Donovan, in drag) and gets advice about his escapades. Humor, wit, playful fantasy sequences, and good dialogue and acting performances combine to make this film an entertaining gander at sexuality as freeing and fun. A must-see for Casey Donovan fans!
