Shag, Gobble & Spunk: A History of British Porn Cinema
Hugely impressive in its scope, with introductory chapters on social history, the film industry and theories of realism, this indispensable history of these vital years contains unusually fresh discussions of films justly regards as important, alongside those unjustly ignored. The extensive filmography which accompanies Sex, Class and Realism will also prove to be an invaluable reference source in the teaching of British cinema history.
I love this book and its interview style. Telling the history of screen porn from the early days of burlesque cinema to todays multi billion dollar industry. The book manages to be sleazy, touching, tragic and happy in equal measures. Never judgemental it allows those there to tell the story in there own words and always lets you decide which side of the porn fence you sit on. Now I would like 2 sequels. One about gay porn and one about international porn and we would be sorted.
