For a documentary “Wadd” ain’t so innovating, and maybe it’s too long but still my eyes were glued to screen. I knew John was a cokefiend and involved in a mob hit but I didn’t really knew he was vicious wife beater and a chronic liar/schizo that fed the cops info on pornproducers in the early 70’s. “Wadd” isn’t that pornographic (no penetration scenes) it’s more of a tragic story of a not too bright kid with the world’s biggest “tool”. Lots of people from the adult industry are interviewed (Goldstein, Flynt, Sharon Mitchell, Ciccolina etc.) as you would expect but also cops, lawyers, journalists and guys like Paul “Boggie Nights” Anderson are included. I know it’s almost impossible to make Holmes-docu that isn’t interesting but “Wadd” is a fascinating and important portrait of a legend that some called The Elvis Of Pornography!Read More »
