Title: Nothing to Hide 2: Justine
Starring: Roxanne Blaze, Mike Horner, Tianna, Nick East, Lacey Rose,
	  Dyanna Lauren, Brad Armstrong, Alex Sanders.
Director: Paul Thomas
Writer: Raven Touchstone
Company: Cal-Vista (I thought these guys were history)

  The evidence is inescapable.  After _Things Change_, _Blonde Justice_, and
even the uneven _Coven_, I must finally admit that Paul Thomas is learning how
to make a sexually hot adult movie.  One or even two might be attributed to
luck, but after a string of pretty good flicks I must say the man has got
something.  The sex here is hot, intriguing, and has a wonderful element of
tease, something usually missing from porn these days.  I guess I better go
find part 1 to this, though from viewing the movie it looks to me like this is
more like a series, rather than a multiple-part story. We'll see. 

  The plot is simple enough:  Mike Horner and Nick East are father and son.
Nick is in love with Roxanne (who hasn't met Horner yet).  Nick leaves for
a while and Roxanne and Mike get involved without knowing anything about
each other (a bit of non-realism for an AIDS-aware world, but this is a
story, right?).  Later they find out, and Roxanne leaves rather than try
to live with Nick after great sex with Dad.  Nick never finds out.  Like
I said, not much plot, but its credible enough and well-played.  In the
last few years Mike Horner has gotten to play real leading men as opposed
to the geeks and uptight types he used to, and danged if he isn't convincing
in the role.  Newcomer Roxanne Blaze is a wonderful find, a dark blonde
with a trim body, generous mouth, bright blue eyes, and real breasts, which 
are very beguiling in their non-perfect but natural state.  Add to that a
strong sexual performance and we could have a new star in the making here.

  She and Horner *are* the movie, one or the other (and sometimes both)
appearing in all six of the film's sex scenes, which are uniformly excellent,
particularly scenes 3 and 4, with their build-up and elements of tease.  A
run down:

Scene 1: Roxanne and Nick.  Straight sex, though Roxanne does finish herself
	 off with a vibrator in her anus.

Scene 2: Actually intercut with the first, this shows Horner and Tianna trying
	 to have sex.  I say trying because Horner's character can't get it
	 up.  I wonder how they managed that trick (short of saltpeter) with
	 Tianna crawling all over him.  This lack of a fucking payoff may be
	 a problem with some people, but the scene was still hot for all that.

  Here Horner checks out an adult video store.  Roxanne is also there, gather-
ing research for some article someone plans to write.  She meets Horner be-
cause the propetior convinces her to help Horner.  The prop has a great line 
concerning Horner that many of us should relate to:  

Prop:  He's never done this before.
Roxanne:  How can you tell?
Prop:  He's got that "jittery look."

  Couldn't help but chuckle at that, recalling my first few visits to a porno
shop!

Scene 3: Mike convinces Roxanne to see him and sets up a meet in a closed
	 restaruant.  After a bit, sex ensues.  After a nice scene, Roxanne
	 seems disturbed (perhaps because she's just been unfaithful to
	 Nick, but this is never really explained).

Scene 4: Roxanne gets her nerve back, and once again meets Mike in the rest-
	 araunt.  More sex after a lot of tease.  Good scene, lots of Roxanne
	 matrubating with a vibrator.

Scene 5: Roxanne, Lacey Rose, Dyanna Lauren, Brad Armstrong and Alex Sanders
	have a 5-way while Mike watches.  Hot.

  Nick's back in town and Roxanne stays with him after telling Mike their
fun has to come to an end.  When she doesn't show at the restaraunt, we
get the following:

Scene 6: Mike finally gets back and gets it on with Tianna, who's been popping
	 up for the whole movie in her underwear, trying to get in touch with
	 Mike via phone.  They do it in a good scene.

  With a running time of almost 2 hours, we get a lot of stuff in between
sex scenes, some of it with nudity, some not, but most of it contributing to
the story (except maybe the Tianna scenes).

  Technically speaking, the use of film was great, the lighting and camera
angles excellent, as well as the staging of the sex and the nice locations
where the filming was done.  I do have a gripe with some of the sound, some- 
thing PT has had recurring troubles with for some reason.  This time, things 
are not well synced during the sex scenes, with performers moans and groans 
not always conforming to how their lips move.  An unfortunate distraction in 
an otherwise superlative bit of porno moviemaking. 

  This may not be better than the best of the Golden Age movies, but its
certainly more than head and shoulders above 95% of what the adult industry
puts out these days. I can recommend _Nothing to Hide 2: Justine_ with great
satisfaction.  It's easily worth a rental, and certainly worthy of purchase
consideration.  Check it out, you won't regret it. 

  Comments, criticisms, and correctiosn welcomed.
