Title: Shows the Reality of a Life After Porn.
Review: It's interesting how so many of the people featured in After Porn Ends seem to have all of the same problems as "normal" people, bad relationships, self-doubt, substance abuse, compounded by the stigma of having been in the adult film industry. There is such a glamour that is constantly associated with the world of pornography that it is compelling to see that it all seems to easily slip away when the cameras are turned off. The parties and the money don't last forever and real life has different demands.The documentary style itself is adequate to the task but it is little more than turning the camera on and letting the performers talk. It's good that many of the people included are interesting in their own right since they don't seem to be prodded much by the director.Whatever your personal stance about pornography might be, this is an interesting study that shows the variety of lives that performers have led after they end their careers.
Is the review positive or negative?
