    Not Quite the Brat

    In my comments on "Jamie Loves Jeff", I noted that video as seeming to be part of the "Brat" series of comedic adult videos from Vivid. Interestingly, this is another film that seems to be in that series, but I should first note that I made a slight error in my original comment. Apparently Jerry Butler portrayed the Brat's husband Mort in the very first installment of the series, and he returns to the role in this one.

    Mort has apparently gotten a divorce from "Jamie" (implicitly Jamie Summers, the original Brat) and is now happily married to Jenny (played by April West.) He's *very* happy, and even comments that this whole situation is too good to be true. Jenny is cheerful, frugal, hard-working, dynamite in bed, and -- as she tells him straight out -- secure in her self and in their love that she doesn't mind if he fools around a little with other girls. Mort claims that he doesn't want any such thing, of course, but -- well, this is porn. Of course he's going to, specifically he gets a birthday surprise in the elevator to work from Lynn Le May.

    Unusually, Mort is portrayed as being ashamed of this, even though Jenny is too blasé to be believed. So, perhaps to balance equations, he arranges for her to get half-an-hour with a handyman/exotic dancer (played by Philip Campanero, who bears an uncanny resemblance to Brad Garrett.) Jenny is perfectly willing to get down with that ... which sets the whole film towards its conclusion, with her essentially taking on all of the Brat's unpleasant personality traits.

    Unfortunately, there weren't any sequels to this new take on the Brat films, which is unfortunate, because April West was both an enthusiastic performer and a talented, if broad, comedienne. ("How would you like a ... massage?" asks her beautician, portrayed by Stephanie Rage, looking at the camera as she delivers the last word. "I'd love a ... massage," April replies, doing the same with a broad grin. Sapphic revelry is just around the corner.) She only made a handful of videos in her two years in the business, and was rather good in all of them.
