Deep Inside Annie Sprinkle

"Deep Inside Annie Sprinkle" is an erotic biopic that takes viewers on a journey through the life and fantasies of adult film star Annie Sprinkle. Directed by Sprinkle herself and Joseph W. Sarno, this 1981 film embraces a semi-documentary style, blending intimate vignettes with Sprinkle's personal narrative.

The film opens with Sprinkle addressing the camera directly, setting the tone for a candid and explicit exploration of her sexuality. We learn of Sprinkle's interests and hobbies, which include a penchant for sexual adventure and a healthy appetite for intercourse. The audience is treated to a series of scenes that push the boundaries of conventional cinema, daring to showcase Sprinkle's unapologetic enjoyment of sex in all its forms.

One standout scene illustrates Sprinkle's uninhibited nature. In a display of pure eroticism, Sprinkle squirts on the chest of Mal O'Ree while sitting on it, and then, in a display of golden showers, she proceeds to pee on his cock after a wild ride. This scene embodies the film's celebration of sexual freedom and Sprinkle's embrace of her own desires.

As the film progresses, we are treated to a variety of encounters, including a romantic tryst with fellow cinemagoers and a climactic scene that surprises. Sprinkle reveals that amidst all the kinkiness, she savors the simplicity of good, old-fashioned missionary-style sex with a nice guy. This unexpected twist adds a layer of complexity to the narrative, challenging the notion that a woman who embraces her sexuality must always crave extreme experiences.

"Deep Inside Annie Sprinkle" is a bold and unapologetic celebration of female sexuality. Sprinkle's performance is a testament to her talent, as she exudes a joy and vivacity that elevates the film. While the production values may not be flawless, the film succeeds in delivering an honest and intimate portrait of a woman comfortable in her skin.

However, the ending may leave some viewers wanting more. The sudden shift to a preference for vanilla sex feels like a cop-out, especially when compared to Sprinkle's subsequent directorial efforts, which delve further into explicit and experimental territory.

While it boldly goes where few films have ventured, it also leaves room for more, both in terms of narrative depth and the exploration of its subject's complex sexuality. This film will appeal to viewers seeking an erotic biopic that challenges conventions and celebrates the power of a woman's pleasure.

For my money, the sexiest woman in porn. I saw all of her films in the 80s and wished I could have met her in person. She exuded sexuality and made you want to have sex with her and hug her at the same time.

At one time, she was working at a massage parlor in Berkeley, but sadly I found out too late where she had been working.

The current porn films have no style nor do they arouse you...it is sad.

The other 2 women who I loved were Carol Connors ( whom I got to meet ) and another actress who was from England and who was the ultimate older woman type. She was in Seven Into Snowy and I can't recall her name. One other one who quit porn at the demand of her husband was Jennifer Welles, her performance in Honeypie was incredibly hot.

The 80s was the golden age of porn and no one knows how to make films that get you aroused anymore.

The fourth of the Evart profile pictures – following Jennifer Welles, Gloria Leonard and Seka and predating Little Oral Annie and Angel Cash – centers on the unique Annie Sprinkle, one of the most gloriously sexual women who ever walked on God's earth and a great personal heroine of mine to boot. No carnal act between consenting adults could ever be kinky to Annie, the Mother Theresa of sex, whose stage shows, work shops, books, movies and what not have accomplished tons of tiny miracles in changing people's consciousness and the way they view themselves as well as the way they (and others) live and love. The once shy little Jewish girl named Ellen has struggled with her own identity and preferences throughout much of her adult life, a struggle she has candidly shared with the rest of the world, her army of admirers steadily growing over the years. DEEP INSIDE ANNIE SPRINKLE undoubtedly contains more truth than its fellow profile films and remains a lot of people's personal favorite of the series.

As usual, director's credit goes to the star, though veteran filmmaker Joe Sarno once again helped out as evidenced by the many extremely well-handled sex sequences which tend to get a tad "nastier" here in keeping with Annie's "anything goes" nature. Highlights include the star's worship of male buttocks (and all that comes with them…) courtesy of curly-haired cute guy Marc Valentine (Christie Ford's trick from Howard Winter's PLATINUM PARADISE), a totally erotic urination scene with Scott "Mal O'Ree" Mallory similar to the one they shared in Gerard Damiano's stupendous SATISFIERS OF ALPHA BLUE and the romantic lovemaking with hunky Ron Hudd, the "perfect stranger" telephone repair man with Samantha Fox in Chuck Vincent's wonderful JACK 'N' JILL. A seven girl slumber party offers several interesting configurations, like a deftly executed daisy chain, and features the likes of Lisa Be (the worldly wise aunt from Phil Drexler's SCENT OF HEATHER) and Colleen Anderson a/k/a "Heather Young" (who played the lead in Drexler's SATIN SUITE) who, in a trivia note, is introduced by Annie as "Heather Gordon" which was a pseudonym for Hillary Summers. The old guy in the movie theater is of course porn's favorite pensioner Jake Teague, "Harlan, the Magician" from Howard Winter's NEON NIGHTS, with underrated Michael Gaunt (brilliant in Richard Watkins' American BABYLON) lending his penis to the proceedings. Truth be told, there are no dull moments here and this has as much to do with Annie's powerful and ingratiating personality as with the intimate imagination on display. Her legion of fans will want to own their very own copy. If you're not among them, you may actually find yourself walking away as one. In that case, poetic justice has been served.

"Deep Inside Annie Sprinkle" (1981) offers an intimate and explicit glimpse into the life and career of adult film star Annie Sprinkle. Directed by Sprinkle herself and Joseph W. Sarno, the film delivers on its promise of raw, uncensored sexuality, showcasing Annie's versatile talents and unapologetic attitude.

The film shines a light on Annie's day-to-day life, presenting her not just as a performer but also as a photographer, musician, and artist. "Deep Inside" aims to provide a holistic view of Annie, and it succeeds in portraying her as a multifaceted woman who embraces her sexuality and exudes confidence.

The sex scenes are undeniably the film's main attraction. They are explicit, intense, and diverse, featuring acts that push the boundaries of what was considered taboo in mainstream porn at the time. From golden showers to threesomes, Annie embraces her kinks and invites viewers on a journey of exploration and pleasure. One of the most memorable scenes depicts Annie sitting on a guy's chest and unapologetically indulging in her infamous talent for urination, challenging societal norms and embracing her unique brand of eroticism.

Annie's performance is enthusiastic and authentic. She embraces her sexuality with a sense of ownership and empowerment, presenting herself as a sexual pioneer who challenges societal expectations. Her unapologetic attitude and articulate, intelligent demeanor shine through, making her a captivating and relatable figure despite the explicit nature of the film.

However, "Deep Inside Annie Sprinkle" falls short of perfection. With a runtime that feels excessive, the film could have benefited from tighter editing to maintain a consistent pace and better deliver on its promise of providing insight into Annie's daily life. While the sex scenes are undoubtedly the main event, the film markets itself as offering a deeper look into Annie's world, and it only partially delivers on this front.

Overall, "Deep Inside Annie Sprinkle" is a must-watch for fans of classic adult cinema and those intrigued by the intersection of sexuality and feminism. Get ready to embark on a journey that's both naughty and illuminating, as Annie Sprinkle bares it all!

It is hard to review a porn flick within the confines of the guidelines laid out by the IMDB. I guess the only real comment I can make is that this movie did what it was supposed to do, and that is arouse me (and my partner)

Annie is such an enthusiastic performer, and kinky enough in this mainstream porno, that you love going on the journey with her. This is what porn should be. Fun. Not taking itself too seriously, and most of all, I didn't feel like the actors were there just to get cash for their drug habits. They seemed to dig the whole thing as much as I did. Annie, if you ever read this... know that I think you're an absolute goddess! Never stop until you want to.
