Two restored classic gay adult films by Arthur J. Bressan, Jr. ('Passing Strangers', 'Forbidden Letters', 'Buddies') No other filmmaker better embodied the spirit of the gay liberation movement than Arthur J. Bressan, Jr. (Passing Strangers, Forbidden Letters). A true pioneer of queer cinema, his films fearlessly blurred the boundaries between the artistic, the erotic, and the cinematic--especially with his final two adult films, the critically-acclaimed Daddy Dearest and Juice. Altered Innocence and the Bressan Project are proud to present these two classics of gay erotica, newly restored in 2K from their original film elements and with a host of new bonus features. Daddy DearestEdward Thompson (Daniel Holt) is a gay filmmaker hard at work on his latest triple-X epic: the story of a pair of college buddies (Dean Johnson and Andrew Dupree) wanting to hook up with an older daddy (Richard Locke) called Fuck Me, Fuck Me, Daddy! But as shooting gets underway, Edward finds his happy memories of his ex (Johnny Dawes) and his private fantasies of the couple he peeps on (Jan Boscamp and Robert Vega) bleeding into the action happening on set. The concluding chapter in the loose trilogy started by Passing Strangers and Forbidden Letters, Daddy Dearest is a lighthearted but provocative exploration of fantasy, memory, and cinema. Year of production: 1984. Running Time: 72 min JuiceJim Bennett (Michael Christopher) is a photographer with serious artistic aspirations--much to the chagrin of his editors (Eric Ryan and Jeremy Scott) at Juice, New York's hottest gay magazine. Tasked with finding and photographing more scintillating subjects by the end of the weekend or losing his job, Jim sets off on a 48-hour odyssey through New York's porn theaters and gay bars, encountering everyone from an angelic jogger (Vincent Thomas) to a pair of opera queen leathermen (Butch La Cross and Jeff Stone) in the process. The final erotic film from Arthur J. Bressan, Jr., Juice is a playfully sophisticated satire of the age-old tug-of-war between respectable art and pornography with a climax--literally--that has to be seen to be believed.
