No Room for Jealousy

Adam & Eve is one of porn's oldest labels, its heyday occurring decades ago. Nowadays it is most familiar from ads for sex products broadcast on late night tv, and a national chain of sex shops.

This well-titled feature about polyamory has a whole team of filmmakers assembled from a previous era -they worked for A & E back in the 1990s. Ernest Greene made many an instructional video for the label starring his wife Nina Hartley, while the team of Luc Wylder and Alexandra Silk also contribute, after toiling years ago on innumerable A&E pictures including the "Amateur Angels" series.

Budgetary restrictions are glaringly in evidence. All the scenes take place indoors (suitable for sex scenes) and the entire cast of five have almost equal leading roles -no supporting cast. It's just a case of mix and match as a married couple (April Olsen and Black stud Tee Reel) share their bed with roommate Paige Owens, and expand their menage to include another couple (Tommy Pistol and Black starlet Olivia Jay).

There's no conflict or drama at all, a deadly dull decision by screenwriter Greene. Relentless positivity, demonstrating how openness is the answer smacks of porn proselytizing but is pleasant enough -strictly a time-killer.
