The Pornographer uses its provocative title and hardcore footage merely as the backdrop to a rather typical study of male mid-life crisis.
A scene from the film “The Pornographer.”
With the current procession of post-Tarantino body count epics and Tom Green-styled “comedies,” it’s a real pleasure to discover a new indie film that is derived from genuine ideas. The casting of little-known actors is remarkable, and one can easily discern that the crew provided a positive creative atmosphere, given the admitted low budget. The project feels like a labor of love for all concerned; even the producer/director’s pets give credible performances. In the “old days,” I’d have referred to this film as a sleeper. That term may no longer be relevant, but THE PORNOGRAPHER remains as an inspiration in an era when “indie cinema” is too often confused with extended MTV-style videos. This is a real film.
