  Just a slight disagreement with Leo's terminology - while Bruce
laBruce's works, including "Super 8-1/2" usually include some explicit
sex, of the type that gets labelled 'hard-core,' they shouldn't
necessarily be lumped into the dismissiive category of 'porno films.'
They have different (sometimes confused) intentions than hard-core
erotica, and can even be seen as trying to de-eroticize
representations of gay male sex.
