CAST
Pretty natural amateur girls
DESCRIPTION
Beautiful erotic ode dedicated to woman, Extra Action is directed by renowned photographer Richard Kern (Model Release, New York Girls) Documents 60 amateur women (unpretentious, unadorned and undressed) set to an original musical score by Thurston Moore (Sonic Youth). This film takes you on a journey into the heart of female sensuality. This is an uncut expanded version of the short film described in the IMDB link. It only runs for 56 minutes but every minute is filled with gorgeous babes doing interesting things for the camera.
Richard Kern: Extra Action & Extra Hardcore is a collection of outtakes from photo shoots Kern did with various models, with music scored by Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth. While I&m more interested in Kern&s films than his photography, this still proved to be rather entertaining.
In concept, this is very much like the photo DVD Steve Diet Goedde released a few years back, only it&s video and not still images coupled with the music. Actually, I can see some similarity between Kern&s recent work and Goedde, at least in the fact that they both prefer a more natural look…
There are various clips of at least a dozen different girls engaging in various acts of undress and self-penetration on this DVD, with the occasional lesbian scene coming into play as well. Instead of being divided by girl, the footage is categorized by theme (”legs”, “wet”, “rub”, etc) which is actually more interesting. The majority of the girls are rather attractive, and they all seem to be having a good time. I got more than one boner while watching this thing, so it certainly doesn&t lack in that department. Actually, the only real grief I have with this thing is the music by Thurston Moore, or more so the lack of it. It seems like the guy only did 5 or so tracks for the movie, some more noisy, some more SY sounding, and they looped them over and over throughout the majority of the film. The songs themselves were ok, but it got tiresome hearing the same couple of tunes every 10 or 15 minutes. Dude should have either made more shit, or they should have found someone else to add more stuff, because it gets pretty redundant pretty quick.
Is it porn? Probably, by most definitions. Lots of writhing and naked young ladies, in bed, in the bathtub, shower, in public, you name it. And with a playful soundtrack by Thurston Moore, I place this into a new category altogether...indie porn?
Forget the Suicide Girls and their glammy burlesque swill. Veteran filmmaker/photog Kern captures the essence of REAL girls, sans the trappings of some supposed or imagined 'scene'. Emerging in the 80's amidst the cacophony of the influential New York noise/scum/rock scene (which spawned monolithic acts like Sonic Youth, SWANS, Live Skull, Lydia Lunch, and grew to encompass Foetus and others), Kern has been creating, on no budget, short films that emblazon the unbridled, uncensored creativity of the downtown NY art/hipster rock elite. He uses sex and violence in often shocking ways to shock and repulse (or titillate) viewers. He's certainly a polarizing artist in this respect.
This new hour-long film features brief vignettes of a number of girls (some barely born when Kern's dangerous filmmaking began) in various, eh, predicaments - being themselves and just 'being interesting' for the camera. There's no semblance of plot or story here, so no confusion with that. Kern is a master of visual raunch, and his films have always carried with them the weight of his musical compatriots, who add another angle to what could be pretty pedestrian work. An entertaining collection of amateur 'indie porn' with a decidedly dark twist. Including interview of Melanie Le Portier, the french hégérie of Kern.
Sex Acts: Softcore solo girls in various states of undress, posing for the camera, indoors, dildo sucking and fucking, and some brief lesbian.
