Movie review

From Time Out New York

What do ex–porn stars do with the rest of their lives? Director Christopher K. Long's look at X-rated hunk Colton Ford's efforts to get out of skin flicks and into the music business has been wowing the gay film-festival circuit. Of course, that could be because it's filled with footage of the muscular Ford and his boyfriend, adult-movie star (and trained nurse) Blake Harper, with their shirts off. But despite all the beefcake, Long's subjects come off as fairly ordinary guys who love each other and want to make a living doing something they like.
