What's your opinion on PW?

PW on FB

I'm looking for a new place and my first impression is good:

his "whore record": 3778 (October 14th 2009)

here's an excerpt of an episode with him and Brina Yuzna from "Au coeur de la nuit".

He makes shitty porn.

I've always loved Pierre Woodman's "Casting" interviews. I love the reality aspect of it. I am yet to find other porn that consistently asks questions that are designed to elicit real rather than fake-titaliting answers. (If you have doubts about that, there are absolutely horrifying childhood molestation stories that Woodman has left intact, one that was especially bad because the girl didn't even realize she had been raped/molested).

Simple questions I love that no one else asks: how many guys have you had sex with in total? This has elicited anything from one to thousands. What sexual acts do you refuse to do, which ones do you like/dislike (including always insisting an answer on semen in the mouth/face and anal sex.) He'll ask whether she is dominant or submissive in her sexuality. He will find out if she has done kinky/extreme things sexually. Questions about the age they first had sex at sometimes lead to very personal revelations.

The typical interview porn will ask a girl what her favorite position is, she'll say "doggy" this followed by "ooh, nice rack, please show it, let me touch it". Zero erotic value. The closest to Woodman I've seen in american porn was Video Virgins Gold 1 - 4.

From a Woodman interview you get to know something about chick. Knowing that she despises or fears or loves or has never done anal sex gives a charge to the scene you see moments later with a cock in her ass. Knowing how slutty or not she is gives the sex that follows much more of a charge.

As an aside I was just prompted by this to see a couple of YouTube interviews with Woodman and one shot at this year's Cannes film fest. also featured his adult daughter, Alexandra Geyser, who is apparently a successful (well, published, anyway) writer in France. I'm enclosing a shot of the two of them.

I really like the idea of the "Casting" videos with the first interviews with the girls and then getting to see them in action. But I don't like him being in the scenes. I also don't think a lot of the porn scenes he shoots are that good even though they appear to use elaborate sets and costumes etc. Good porn should have great lighting, girls should be dolled up and look incredibly sexy and you should feel turned on watching it
Maybe a better idea would be to still have him doing the interviews but then have Jules Jordan or someone do the scenes
Another thing I don't like about the Casting series is that he sometimes forgets to translate the interview so I have no idea what they're talking about

I also like the casting interviews but the sex scenes that follow are super shitty. The fixed camera angle and nonexistent lighting make the whole scene seem wasted to me.

He may actually be trying to go for a really amateur feel in his videos. I don't know.

I have just seen him waste some great opportunities at making really fresh, good porn.

Aside from the interviews the casting series is super dull. I hate POV stuff but Woodman's stuff would be improved if he picked up the camera.
