Mr. Pinup

Thanks to Avatar, the adult-film industry is banking on 3-D to be its salvation. Eric Pape on why directors—including Tarantino—want to make dirty movies you can reach out and touch.

An alluring blond woman powders her face with a brush while seated on a bed, seemingly unaware of the camera that is filming her. The pendant at the end of her gold-chain necklace dangles over her cleavage like an arrow pointing downward. Her supple breasts risk escaping from her white lingerie. She rolls on a stocking on one leg, and then the other. And then the screen goes black.

If this brief tease—which is part of the bonus features in a soon-to-be-released DVD—hardly seems like the inspiration for a radical transformation of adult entertainment, you are not wearing 3-D glasses. But the clip’s French director, Tom Sridix, tells The Daily Beast with the glasses on, “you feel like you can reach out and touch her.”

Adult film star Tera Patrick gave her porn star hubby Evan Seinfeld an ultimatum — their marriage or his steamy screen career — and he chose porn, she claims.In her new memoir, “Sinner Takes All,” Patrick recounts how she told Seinfeld, her husband of seven years, last summer that he had to give up starring in X-rated films if he wanted to stay married to her. Patrick herself had not shot a new video since 2006. After Seinfeld chose the flicks, the couple split in September.Writes Patrick: “I said to Evan, ‘I’m your wife, and that is the strongest bond two people should have, and that should come first. I’ve moved on from porn. And I want you to stop. You promised me you’d only do porn for a few years. Your few years are up.’ “

Carla Gugino has played a wide range of women in her career, but never a porn star. Now, thanks to her longtime boyfriend, filmmaker Sebastian Gutierrez (Snakes on A Plane, Gothika), she gets her chance in the dramedy Women in Trouble.

Gugino doesn’t get any sex scenes, but she does appear in lingerie, as do most of the other actresses. Parade.com’s Jeanne Wolf found out from Carla why the female cast members were ready to strip down to the bare essentials.

Maybe his accent helped.

“There is no one besides Sebastian Gutierrez that could get all of us in this movie into our underwear and still have us be OK with it. I think it’s his European sensibility and style, even though he was born in Venezuela. In countries like France, Spain and Italy, women are celebrated for their physical beauty, but they also can be strong and complex. This film is a celebration of the complexity of women. It’s like, do not judge a book by its cover. You may think you know a porn star, but you’re going to get to see a whole other side of her.”

Why she stayed away from the real thing.

“There’s a level of darkness that’s involved in the world of adult filmmaking, and I didn’t think it was going to help me to really delve too much into that. I did talk to some porn actresses and I checked out the book by Jenna Jameson, who sort of turned the whole scenario into a bestseller. I’m just not a big fan of porn movies. I want them to be sexier. And being an actress, I’m always critiquing the production and going, ‘The lighting is terrible. Her make-up is bad.’ I’m not the best audience.”

After starring in two Tomb Raider films as Lara Croft, it looks like Angelina Jolie is out as everyone’s favorite globe-trotting skimpy-clothed adventuress.  Film producer Dan Lim has been talking about the next movie in the franchise, and goodness gracious oh my, it’s a prequel reboot origin story.

“We’re rebooting Lara Croft…It’s a great origin story that we’re going to tell, a very character-oriented, I would say more realistic than the past Lara Croft movies…It’s not full-on action. I would say it’s like Terminator, it’s character driven action. For me, the Lara Croft games and movies have gone a little too action-oriented. I wanted to have action, but with character.”
