| Sumario: | The article examines whether pornographic movies for women are able to address questions of gender and sexuality in a more reflexive and less phallocentric way than that of traditional pornography. Analyzing the movie All About Anna (2005) I discuss why the producers seem to avoid one of the most distinctive features of pornography - the feeling of authenticity, of ";real lust"; visible on screen. This ";real lust"; has so far mostly been symbolized via the visible male come shot, and the film producers struggle to find a female equivalent. I argue that the film producers' inability to visualize female lust in an ";authentic"; setting is caused by their still being constrained by the traditional porn genre's phallocentric gender patterns. Using the French lesbian, queer and transgender pornographic movie One Night Stand(2006) as an example, I argue that by changing the gendered expectations and by consciously deploying the genre's quest for authenticity, this movie solves some of the problems that appear in All About Anna. |
