Juliet ‘Aunt Peg’ Anderson Dead at Age 71

admin — Wed, 13 Jan 2010 11:35:18 +0000

The body of Juliet Carr, better known by her adult career name Juliet Anderson, and even more frequently recognized as one of the characters she portrayed, “Aunt Peg,” was discovered this morning in her residence in Berkeley by a friend. The cause of death is not yet known, but the actress suffered for many years with Crohn’s disease, which had only recently been diagnosed, though she had suffered from it for most of her life.

“I found her in her bed,” said her friend Kevin Fong, who became close to the actress over the last 18 months. “She looked like she was just asleep. There were no empty pill bottles, nothing out of the ordinary. There wasn’t any alcohol; her wrists weren’t slit; nothing.”

Fong had arrived to take the former actress to a doctor’s appointment for a colonoscopy that morning to help in the treatment of her Crohn’s.

“She had chronic Crohn’s disease, and you can only control so much of that with diet,” Fong said. “She was a health nut, she was in great shape, and this was a total shock. … In her case, it was congenital; she had it since she was a little kid, and it stopped her from even going to regular school as a child. it’s something she had forever, probably all her life.”

Carr’s adult career was unusual, to say the least. Born in Burbank in 1938, the diminuitive blonde began acting in adult at the age of 39, when, as an employee at an advertising and engineering firm, she was discovered by famed director Alex DeRenzy, who cast her in his 1978 blockbuster hit Pretty Peaches. Her career took off quickly, and she performed in more than 80 movies over the following 10 years.

Her best-known role, however, was as “Aunt Peg,” her character in the movie of the same name. “Aunt Peg” was a Hollywood agent who had an unusual method of choosing her clients and of getting them work, as displayed in Aunt Peg Goes Hollywood and Aunt Peg’s Fulfillment. She also appeared in such top hits as Tangerine, Vista Valley PTA, Dixie Ray Hollywood Star, Outlaw Ladies, Taboo 1 & 2, Hustler Video Magazine 1, and in half of the first 24 volumes of the Swedish Erotica series.

Carr also took credit for discovering world-famous star Nina Hartley, having cast her in 1984 in Educating Nina, which Carr directed. However, when she was unable to find distribution for the movie, which she had financed herself, she quit the industry altogether.

“It was a huge undertaking with a strong story, talented actors and superb production values,” Carr wrote. “However, this gem was a financial and emotional disaster for me. As the first woman producer of X-rated films, the men who ran that industry were intimidated by me and retaliated by never releasing Educating Nina. Devastated, I quit the adult entertainment industry.”

“This is really sad news,” reflected Hartley. “Juliet did put me in the movies all those years ago and was a mentor for several years. I saw her in November up in Berkeley when I did a personal appearance there. She was in fine health; she was happy. We took a couple of pictures together, she flashed her boobs—they were still lovely—and since it has to happen to all of us, I’m grateful that it seemed to happen peacefully without other incident.”

“She was the original cougar before ‘cougar’ was hot,” Hartley added.

Carr’s life was, for want of a better term, eclectic. According to her website, she followed her American lover to Japan in 1960, married him briefly, became fluent in the Japanese language and even attended the university there. In 1965, she lived in Mexico City and taught English to IBM executives there, and two years later did similar teaching in Athens, Greece. In 1971, she was a “top-ranking” radio producer in Finland, creating programs in English about Finland. Between those jobs, she worked as a secretary to a nudie film producer, an Avis Rent-A-Car employee, a cocktail waitress, a fashion model and a receptionist for the home offices of Burger King, all in Miami, Fla. Later, she managed a bed-and-breakfast in Northern California, and eventually became a massage therapist, a profession which she practiced until her death.

In 1996, Carr, already an AVN Hall of Famer, was inducted into the Legends of Erotica Hall of Fame; the XRCO Hall of Fame in 1999; and she received a Lifetime Achievement Award from Free Speech Coalition in 2001. She also received an honorary Doctor of the Arts degree from the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality in 2007.

“She was just a wonderful woman,” recalled director Wesley Emerson. “She started late in the industry, and I interviewed her about a month ago because several of her films are about to be rereleased in France—Coed Fever, Inside Desiree Cousteau and Talk Dirty To Me—and they wanted some commentaries from different people. I also talked to her about how she got started in the eight-millimeter business. She was one of the big stars of the Swedish Erotica series, and she worked with practically everybody. We talked about how she got started and all the things she did in the industry. She was talking about that film she did about older couples having sex [Ageless Desire, 1998]. I had worked with her many years ago on the film Bad Company; it was one of those one-day wonders that you shot in 35mm in those days, and she was great, she was just an amazing person. She was always there on time, always ready with her lines, and I thought she was just a wonderful person.”

“I heard on the grapevine about a hot new ‘older’ woman in the biz and was soon in her apartment interviewing her,” remembered photographer Paul Johnson. “Her name was Judy Carr, later to become Juliet Anderson. We did a great shoot in a hot tub and patio that became the Connoisseur Series mag The First Time. [Juliet] was my sexy assistant the last few years I worked in the biz. Juliet had a great eye and after I taught her to use a Hasselblad she did great work when I was modeling POVs or fill-ins. I joked with Juliet that she could learn to use a Hasselblad but never could learn to flick a Bic. When Juliet and I worked together we would say that we will always be friends, seems to be true, we had breakfast together 3 weeks before her death.”

“Juliet was a great assistant,” he continued. “She had a great eye for dressing the set, did make-up when needed, and could crack the whip to keep the rest of us moving. And sometimes when a male was having trouble keeping it up, Juliet would lend a hand or whatever it took. Away from the biz I probably spent more time with her than anyone else.”

“She was very health-conscious,” Emerson noted. “When I saw her last month, her body was still pretty doggone toned and healthy.”

“She was doing an essential kind of massage,” said another acquaintance. “She had an amazing touch with her fingers; it would melt you. If she would just run her nails down your arm, it felt great.”

“Her mom is still alive, and she spent Thanksgiving and Christmas with her mom and her family,” Fong noted.

“Juliet and I talked, just in passing, about what she would want done if she died,” Fong said. “She said she wanted to be cremated, and I’ve talked to her family a little bit, and we talked about donations to the Humane Society in lieu of flowers or any of that.”

Do women want porn for women?

admin — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 14:35:09 +0000

There has been a lot of talk over the past few years about women and porn. Pretty much all commercial porn produced over the past 35+ years has been made by (and for) men but is porn even gender specific?

There have been attempts over the years for more female oriented products – notably Candida Royalle’s Femme productions which she describes as “Something men can share with the women in their lives”(1) and “less graphic, good story lines, good original music and real characters of all ages”(2). Femme’s movie boxes are even made to look like romance novels, which is very clever.

Vivid are another company also known for producing “couple friendly” porn which much like Femme is noted as different by being less explicit.

But who says this is what women want?

It seems to me that by attempting to “liberate” women by giving them their own brand of porn, these people are missing something quite important – that everyone has different tastes regardless of their gender.

I acknowledge that I know women who like the softer couple friendly movies, but I also know just as many that like to watch DP action in Private movies, and even very hard gay movies. I’m also sure that a lot of men like watching couples movies on their own.

One thing Candida Royalle’s movies promote however, which is something ALL porn should promote in some way is what she calls “positive sexual role modelling”(3), all too often women are not portrayed in a positive way in this industry and we should remember that it wouldn’t exist without them.

what’s your opinion?

Adult web designers

I’m always curious to see what other people are doing in the industry and in the interest of knowledge and I have listed a few adult website designers found through various seach engines.

website design is only part of my work as I also do a lot of print based work and photography.

Here is a list below to give you an idea of what people are currently offering as services and prices.

Open DNS

admin — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 17:01:48 +0000

If you are worried about what your children might see on the web and aren’t as computer savvy as you’d like then I would recommend looking at Open DNS.

This is a service that works by replacing the DNS servers your ISP provides to give better speeds and stability to your internet connection. What makes Open DNS better however is that they provide a totally free adult site filtering service – you just have to follow their easy instructions and reister for a free account.

This means that while your kids are blocked from adult content at router level, you are free to turn it off when you want to enjoy some smut

JasmineSinclair.com

admin — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 15:01:11 +0000

Jasmine Sinclair has been a well known model in the UK for a while now including appearences on Page 3 of national newspapers.

She has had a website for quite a while which specialises in bondage and while this isn’t my thing I joined up recently to check it out.
I would describe the site as small and personal which is a nice change from faceless corporation websites.
Jasmine’s bio page is an interesting read (for a change) and mentions how she is naturally submissive and how her website is a way to explore this side of her personality in a safe environment.

Content

There is a mid level amount of content on the site, according to the members page there are 160 photosets (containing 13,711 photos) and 66 videos (totalling over 10 hours of footage).
Images are not of a fixed size so some sets have lots of different sized photos. Generally they are around 1200 pixels on the longest length.
Photosets are viewable or availible as zip files for download.
Videos are provided as WMV “large, WMV “small” or “large” Realmedia – as an example the following sizes were observed for one movie:
WMV large: 57mb – WMV Small: 20mb Large Realmedia: 77mb
The usual sections can be found on the site (photos, videos, bio, forum etc)

Presentation

The site has a pink and gray design with a butterfly motif and is quite plain but functional. The main members page shows all the latest updates, Jasmine’s news and upcoming updates in a simple layout thats easy on the eyes.

There is also an rss feed you can subscribe to and recieve the latest updates, which are daily.

Interactivity

Jasmine goes out of her way to fulfill member requests and labels sets or movies with an icon to show which material is from requests. There is also a contact address if you wish to send in ideas. Users can also rate and comment all photosets and movies.
I had a brief speed problem with the site when I first joined so I e-mailed the webmaster. I was impressed that he got back to me within minutes with some helpful advice.
Jasmine’s site also has user forums but I didnt check these out as you need to register to view them.

Conclusion

Jasmine is a pretty hot babe and while bondage may not be your thing, the content is still quite hot and includes a lot of G/G material – there are several other girls on the site like Mistress Alexandra, Lucy Zara and Kelly (who appears in a lot of sets).
The photosets could be better presented in a uniform size with less retouching and also the movies would benefit from a streaming flash version instead of the realmedia option or possibly a HD version.

The presentation isn’t so good but its functional, quick and bug free. I get the impression that not much time was spent on it so there is room for a lot of improvement there. The interactivity is what makes this site nice, especially if you are a bondage fan – I give jasminesinclair.com a good 6.5 out of 10 rating.

Hello world!

Well I’m around 90% done building the site and adding content.
I found so much material to use that I realised most would have to be left out.

I decided to render a lot of the Vivid dvd boxes and Private material as its more interesting to see the product rather than a flat piece of artwork. The Daring! renders were produced at the time of the design though to aid in visualising the whole product package including the disk.

I’m stuill having issues with lightbox scripts not working properly but I’m guessing this is a conflict with other javascripts on the site, other than that – the site is progressing nicely.
