San Francisco

About This Movie

So, 'San Francisco' is an interesting piece from the early 80s that really captures the vibe of the time in gay adult cinema. J.W. King is front and center here, showing off his skills with a level of enthusiasm that feels genuine, almost infectious. The film has an amiable atmosphere, the cinematography is quite striking and polished for its time, which adds a unique charm. It’s more than just the typical sex scenes; there's this narrative thread with Scott Andersen's journey, which gives it a kind of warmth. The pacing flows nicely, allowing you to savor the moments without it feeling rushed, which is refreshing.

This film has had a bit of a shaky release history, with some early copies becoming quite scarce as the years have gone by. Collectors tend to find the original formats particularly appealing, as later releases often lack the same quality. Interest seems to remain steady among those who appreciate the early evolution of adult films, especially given its unique blend of narrative and performance.
