as the colder months approach: i wish you all a healthy, calm end of the year. i wish you tasty cups of tea, comfortable clothes, warm beds, nutritious meals in safe homes, good music, new friends and unwavering health. you deserve good things now.
I was so flummoxed by this I had to learn more, so I took to Google, where I found this blog post by Dan Cardone, who was a grip on this film. Some highlights:
This was the first set I had been on that featured three directors, and hopefully the last. One director was there to primarily film the sex scenes, which he did effectively and economically. The other two directors handled what is called in porn-lingo āB-Rollā, i.e. everything non sexual. Which on this film was substantial. The plot for To The Last Man involves two ranches populated entirely by horny men who have random sex and feud over water, as they are in the middle of a crippling drought. Which is why we filmed in Arizona during thunderstorm seasonā¦
Itās amazing no one got killed, or seriously injured. There was horse riding, there were fight scenes of rocky escarpments, there were drownings. When the real guns and live ammunition came out for a scene I thought, āThatās it, Iām going back to the truckā.
Fortunately, one of the models was also a fully qualified nurse, so that saved money, time and also lives. Plus, he was sexy, so it was win/win.
āFORTUNATELY ONE OF THE MODELS WAS ALSO A FULLY QUALIFIED NURSEā my god I am LOSING my MIND
would like to point out that it is not within scope of practice for nurses to insert sutures in California or Arizona. but good for the gay nurse pornstar! we love a man in (out of?) uniform!
or something. I was looking up paintings for something and thereās a whole genre of art focusing on confessionals, and this one painting (that also inspired this illustration) (henri lehmann, le confessionnal) was giving off MAJOR pyramus and thisbe energy, to me, in the overall compositions (and intent) shared between them. so, again, my priest/knight agendaā
