Perhaps better knows for his all-girl raunchfests like "Sex With Peaches" and "Tales Of The Clit", Euro porn maestro Viv Thomas turns to exploring an (even more) kinder, gentler brand of smut with "The Art Of Sex", a stab at explicit couples' porn if there ever was one: it's described as "(a) collection of scenes stripped of pretension and style, it is untreated, unscripted, and simply presents real sex, captured in all its beauty." All of which might sound a little too touchy-feely if all you're interested in is, say, rubbing one out to the divine Mya Diamond. But at least watch the trailer — all tinkly piano music and creaky bedsprings — before you pass this one up; from the looks of things, Thomas and his cast didn't sacrifice any genuinely hot sex on their way to producing one of the classiest porn flicks we've come across in quite a while. And isn't feeling classy what watching porn is all about?
