I prefer story films, but "Pure" lives up to its tile as pure Jenna Jameson, lovely in various role-playing skits that constitute wall-to-wall sex content but of the agreeable Andrew Blake-style. It's as ephemeral and as effective as leafing through a dirty- pictures magazine like we all did before the advent of widely-distributed moving pictures porn.
The five vignettes are staged fairly cheaply on simple sets in the studio, but a good cast of sex performers bring the eroticism to life. Probably the ablest is Jeanna Fine, well-cast as the mistress of the house who punishes maid Jenna for watching Fine's self- shot dirty VHS tapes, by having sex with the girl. The tandem directors Brad Armstrong and Greg Steelberg use CCTV to double up this scene as we watch the two J's lesbian sex scene while simultaneously seeing it projected on a big-screen TV from the 2nd camera's angle.
Jenna and another femme have fun in period costumes dancing around in a tribute to the '60s replete with lava lamp props. This scene is set-up with a fun nod to the Peter Greenaway NC-17 classic "The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover' in which Jenna walks through a door to emerge on the other side in vintage costume & cue the Stax Records-type period music track.
A lesbian threesome featuring Julie Rage is a highlight, staged with daisy chain-antics. In one vignette Jenna indulges a smoking fetish (with long cigarette-holder) but doesn't participate in the sex, acting more as host/voyeur.
All told an excellent introduction to the Jenna phenomenon, already yesterday's news in the rush-to-obsolescence Adult world.
