So you wouldn't be interested in any of that kind of work yourself?
No.
You've described yourself as a commodity. Can you discuss that a little bit?
Well, getting into the adult industry at 18, I knew that a lot of people would have problems with it, and I wanted people to know that I was very clear on my intent. That, yeah, I know I'm selling sex, and I'm not just getting into this by accident or by mistake. I may have other reasons as well, creative and artistic goals to reach, but it's still business, and I understand that and I'm okay with putting myself out there as an object.
Also, these adult films are incredibly political, because you're dealing with the First Amendment, and two adult-film companies right now are on trial for obscenity, when obscenity is still not something that's clearly defined in our Constitution. I feel like our rights are being taken away. We're not hurting anybody. This isn't involved with the mob or slave trading or sex trading.
As Steven was saying the other night at the screening, at the end of the day we're all selling something, and we all want something, whether it's monetary or not. But now I have transitioned from being the laborer, where I get a small piece of the pie, to owning my own company, directing my own films, where I solely benefit.
And your directorial debut is what kind of movie?
It will be a feature, actually, for adult films. For my company. It's . . . well, I don't want to give it away.
But it's got a narrative?
Yeah.
And graphic sex?
Mmm.
