  • Lisa Loves, working in England with the Kendo team for the daring! porn label, specializes in soft (but XXX) eroticism of which A WARM EMBRACE is a good example alongside perhaps her best work J'ADORE. It's an acquired taste and could bore the uninitiated to tears.

    The five unrelated vignettes pair attractive women with huge-dicked men, and place a heavy emphasis on slow-motion, "cloud" effects (various visual distortions) and dreamy music of the New Age school. To keep awake I guess you need to be a couple in bed using the video for inspiration, the way folks used to get off humping during Johnny Carson's late night show.

    Best segment is likely the last, when the feature's token big-breast model Cathy Heaven is serviced by Pascal White. This segment delivers an anal payoff, very well-photographed and certain to satisfy anyone looking for that genre of video.

    The other girls are all good-looking, though I thought Megan Coxxx overdid it with the fake eyelashes which even Lady Gaga might have turned down as too extreme.

    The BTS featurette typically touts Lisa's post-production emphasis, in which careful color grading and composites create stylish special visual effects not generally associated with porn. I merely wonder whether going to all that trouble is appreciated by the fans, who like their video in-and-out action clearly and unambiguously presented, not much interest in School of Visual Arts style. From my perspective, it is the absence of story lines (what's wrong with her mentor Kendo's work) that is the major drawback when it comes to holding the viewer's interest and involvement.
