    Boys in the Sand (1971)
      Joe Gage Title is taken, of course, from the Broadway play and film Boys in the Band. Filmed on Fire Island,
    - 21st it features Casey Donovan in each of its three parts. First one, Bayside,Donovan runs up from out
    century of the ocean to handsome, bearded Peter Fisk, who immediatley touches Donovan's wet, lighly
    videos hairy body, and devours his cock. Soon, Donovan is putting a leather cock ring on his new lover, as
    they stroke their cocks together, as he takes his turn sucking his partner. Beautifully photographed,
      Fred music might seem a bit "dated" or overdone these days, though. Hairy-chested Daniel DiCiccicio in
    Halsted Poolside; black telephoneman Tommy Moore in Inside.
    Bijou (1972)
      Psychedelic effects, and featuring
    Wakefield a hugely endowed Bill Harrison

    me play on the radio. He goes from


    his bed to the shower, never
    cumming, but the photography of
    his thick meat is great, and to me,
    the soundtrack adds just the right
    touch. Later, he goes to a porn
    palace of sorts, and more visual
    effects, split screens, etc. Not
    great if you want a quick whack-off, but still a fascinating film from nearly 30 years ago. plus
    Cable, Tom Bradford, Peter Fisk, Cassandra Hart, Lydia Black (don't worry, the women are in non-
    sex roles!), Robert Lewis, Rocco Passalini, Michael Green, and Bruce Williams. (note: Bill
    Harrison went on to direct The Biggest One I Ever Saw (1984); plus others under the name Ronnie
    Shark.)

    Bible! (1973)
    Using the profits from the previous two films, Poole made this soft-core straight film, costing over
    $100,000 ( Boys cost less than $5k), and it was a major flop. Reflecting on it in an interview in
    Stallion, he says the problem was that is was "not an offensive movie" - people expected hardcore
    with The Devil In Miss Jones star Georgina Spelvin (Bathsheba) in it. Also featured Bo White
    (Adam), Caprice Couselle (Eve), Brahm van Zetten as Samson, Gloria Grant as Delilah, and others.
