Michael Raven shows us his wonderful beachfront location in the BTS short subject for "Post Modern Love", but the film itself consists of 5 mechanical sex scenes shot in a nondescript bedroom, as crummy looking as any 1971 1-day porn wonder. This is lousy filmmaking by someone who knows better.
Poorly shot "witnesses" talking to the camera (the 3 principal actors) give us the entire story, in a technique badly cribbed from Warren Beatty's innovative "Reds" feature. The actual story line is boring and pointless, with Raven attempting to punch it up via a moronic version of the "Rashomon" technique. The witnesses contradict each other (as if they were watching the video with us, reacting against each other's recounting of events, an absurdity) and we see clashing flashbacks of most scenes to reflect the differing recollections.
Violet Blue, now listed in IMDb under her stupid alternate moniker "Noname Jane", is lovely as the heroine, a college student who moves into Talon's beach house as a roommate, later joined by her BFF Brooke Banner. Too bad for Violet, but Brooke early in her career steals the movie away from her, with a sexy performance and commanding screen presence, something not intended in the script.
Raven's casting is quite poor, in that all three of Violet's supporting femmes look very similar facially: Brooke, British import Ashley Long and obscure but attractive starlet DoLorian. So much so that I quibble with the IMDb character-match-up given the last two - I thought they were reversed.
With filler sex scenes injected with the girls servicing a drunken Evan Stone and guest humper Chris Cannon, nothing much happens, hardly worth regurgitating over and over from different vantage points. Basically Talon gets to hump Violet, the flashbacks shown out of order on purpose, and later laments the fact that he let the dream girl get away.
MINOR SPOILER:
Instead of falling for Talon, the lame twist is that Violet falls in love belatedly with Brooke, shifting from BFF to lover, and they go away together. This makes no sense and is very poorly portrayed, merely to set up the ending and to toss in a brief but sexy lesbian scene.
In the briefest of cameos, Mason and Ariana pop up for a couple of seconds as Violet's pals back in the campus dorm, shown topless and looking a lot like Lisa Ann and Belladonna, but fortunately they get screen credits -about the only thing this production did right, as non-sex roles are usually ignored.
