Under Her Wing

Two nice stories unfold on this DVD of Transfixed content.

In the title scene, credit actors Ariel Demure and Brooklyn Gray for wonderful performances in a dramatic setting: mature artiste played by Ariel is auditioning performers to succeed her at her nightclub, as she prepares to leave and accept a career-making opportunity to play on Broadway. She's rejected them all, including (inevitable in-joke) one named Bree Mills.

Final name on this list is Brooklyn Gray, who arrives late in the afternoon, butch styled and dressed in garb hardly suggesting the sophisticated emcee/chanteuse that Ariel is looking for.

Severely styled in a diva role, Ariel adopts the haughty manner of a Bette Davis drag queen in delivers nasty, condescending dialogue with aplomb, Brooklyn suffering through quite a verbal grilling. Gray follows up singing her chosen song "Brooklyn Bad" with an affecting torch singer vocal, that, like the acting, suggests crossover potential for these two artistes, one trans the other cis female.

Mills' direction reaches a high point when during this vocal plus piano performance a seamless edit segues to Brooklyn finishing the song in cabaret costume, suddenly glamorous and joined on the club's stage by Ariel. A transition to sex on stage for at first softcore then evolving into XXX content of a lengthy porn scene ensues. The happy ending to this romance is exhilarating.

The vignette is a breath of fresh air, and points the way for a movement from the current Gonzo trend in adult entertainment toward a more sex positive approach.

Segment titled "The First Look" has a transsexual romance that is quite romantic and upbeat, a pleasant surprise in the ongoing "Transfixed" series on the Adult Timer porn platform.

Credit must go to one Mr. Pam, who turns out to be an eccentric and somewhat irresistible Adult fimmaker: busty and a mature woman. Her oddball stage name derives from her specializing in directing and photographing Gay porn (i.e., boy/boy scenes).

She portrays a British still photographer, shooting beautiful Kate Zoha's first photo shoot. Korra Del Rio co-stars as Kate's makeup artist, and finding something missing, Mr. Pam enlists Korra to join Kate in front of the camera, leading to the duo having hot sex after Pam finishes the shoot and leaves.

What makes this so effective a "touching romance" is that the fact that both Kate and Korra are trans-females with dicks (and balls) is treated as completely irrelevant to the simple story. They are extremely compatible, and previously worked together in another Mr. Pam-piloted movie.
