Forced orgasms = good. Forced dialogue = bad. That is the Cliff's Notes version.
A more in-depth analysis will begin right now by giving credit to Nica Noelle for trying to boost porn's IQ several points. In her latest effort, she attempts to breathe new life into a classic piece of Old English erotica. If anyone could pull this one off it would be Nica as she is well adept at weaving basic, yet interesting storylines through her films. But, creating couture through literature is a gamble, especially when it comes to Victorian novels, and her ambitiousness may have clouded the fact that porn stars, not Shakespearean actors are in charge of making her newest project take flight.
Nica's latest effort, "A Man with a Maid: Tales of Victorian Lust," is based on a piece of Victorian-era erotic fiction called The Way of the Man with a Maid. Written anonymously and published near the end of the 19th century, the story revolves around a man named Jack, whose unscrupulous sexual practices include forcing himself on women and other deplorable acts of misogynistic violence. His belief is that women are there for his pleasure and those who repudiate his advances should do his bidding and be subjected to brutality and humiliation by his own hand. He further believes that women secretly want sex by force and that, during the moment of penetration, they will undoubtedly find their degradation appealing.
The book itself is a finely detailed account of a man caught in the recesses of his own mind, thinking himself a sort of anti-hero, one who is able to "liberate" virginal lasses through his misguided and supremely ignoble sexual appetites. It is an excellent template for a porn film, though Nica becomes a victim of her own style of filmmaking. Don't misunderstand: that statement is not a general indictment of Nica's films. She is extremely talented at capturing the essence of raw, unencumbered sex and putting it onto the big screen. Films like "The Stepmother: Sinful Seductions" and the Lesbian Confessions series are the savory pudding that holds the proof. However, her vision skews toward producing films that appeal more to women than men. She incorporates much more kissing and intimate subtleties than you would find in more typical male-dominated films. And much of the violence you might see in a standard porn film also tends to be absent; in Nica's work it is more implicit. While there is absolutely nothing wrong with that, it does tend to sully the depiction of forcible sex just a bit. Those fantasies that bore themselves out in AMWAM almost border on civility. Oh, there are some shrieks and some horrified looks, and even a bit of shoving of scantily clad bodies onto beds, but you never completely get the sense of utter violation that Ben English, who plays Jack, hints at through conversational tone.
Further, as mentioned at the top of this review, the dialogue is written to retain a Victorian feel. Though some of the actors and actresses in Noelle's cache of talent have developed fairly believable acting chops, feigned accents and lofty vocabulary don't do the film proper justice. Even Ben English and Magdalene St. Michaels, themselves of European origin, seem unable to rescue a few of the more clunky exchanges.
Now, most of us don't watch porn for the dialogue or the literary references and it's safe to say that we can live with porn-standard acting ability and staccato vocal deliveries if the fucking is completely balls out. AMWAM doesn't quite go that far, but it pairs up some good performers. There is a threesome with James Deen, Magdalene and Elexis Monroe; some natural lesbian action with Stephanie Swift and Nicole Ray; and a couple of one-on-one scenes between Ben and Stephanie and Ben and Nicole, the latter of the two being the stronger. It is the one that gives you the best viewing of Nicole's superlative natural tits and her shaved pussy getting infiltrated by Ben's big banger. And you'll find a good shot of Nicole's beautifully shaped behind and tight asshole riding his cock later in the scene followed by a decent cumshot onto her lovely breasts.
In addition to that, there is a little bit of tease using some feathers and a nice shot of Nicole eating Stephanie's pussy from behind in the second scene. This is important to note because, in the original manuscript, the author apparently knew little about how two women engage each other when they fuck, describing it as "women lying on top of each other in the missionary position, in direct mimicking of heterosexual sex." Nica, on the other hand, knows exactly how it's done, making the girl-on-girl action much more scintillating than what you would find in the book.
If you like period Costumes and some International flair with your porn, you may be inclined to check this one out. Nicole Ray is always worth the effort. All said, Nica's heart and naughty parts were in the right place for this one, but there are stronger Noelle titles from which to choose to get your fix of real sex and real orgasms. The two mentioned earlier are a good start. Kudos to Nica for trying to improve literacy among the porn loving populace, though it's possible not even Sir Ian McKellen or Patrick Stewart could pull this one off. Well, maybe Patrick Stewart.
