Letting the industry off the hook
23 August 2022
The story of Ron Jeremy is appalling and tragic: a tale of an actor in pornographic movies who carried on off set as he did on it, eventually indicted for numerous counts of sexual assault only as his health fails. The problem with the sex industry in general is, while it satisfies basic human needs, it often seems to be inextricably entanged with abuse and exploitation; so you might think a documentary about Jeremy would focus on whether his behaviour should be considered in any way surprising, and if not, what should be done to change that. Instead, it has a childish "porn is cool" attitude, and Jeremy is portayed, devoid of context, as a lone predator. And maybe that's the truth; but this program did not convince me.
