BBC – Ron Jeremy: Fall of a Porn Icon (2021)
English | Size: 302 MB
Category: Tutorial
For decades, the world’s most famous male porn star, Ron Jeremy, allegedly groped, assaulted and raped women.
One of the most unlikely success stories of the adult industry, Jeremy, 68, became an ‘icon’ of porn who appeared in over 2,000 adult movies and successfully crossed over into mainstream media.
Yet it wasn’t until June 2020 that he was arrested and charged with 34 sex crimes against 21 women. He is currently in prison awaiting trial.
This explosive documentary hears for the first time from some of his alleged victims as well as those who helped raise the alarm about him.
Ginger Banks, one of the first adult performers to shine a spotlight on Ron Jeremy’s behaviour, speaks about her struggle to get the industry to take action.
She says she fought to get Jeremy banned from adult expos and events where he was allegedly assaulting many of his victims. Was the industry turning a blind eye to what Ron was apparently doing? Jeremy – who has consistently denied all the allegations against him and has pleaded not guilty to all the charges – faces up to 330 years in prison if convicted.
Despite the allegations, he still has many supporters. Some friends and former colleagues believe Jeremy has become the #MeToo fall guy for the adult industry.
Conversations about consent have become more sophisticated in recent years, and in the world of porn setting boundaries on set is more important than ever before.
This documentary gains unfettered access behind the scenes of the often secretive adult world and questions what Ron Jeremy’s arrest says about the changing industry.
Has the power has really started to shift away from male-dominated studios in favour of the female performers for the first time?
