Nina Hartley's Guide to Spanking 2004, 80 min., Adam & Eve D. Ernest Greene Starring: Nina Hartley Kylie Ireland Audrey Hollander Otto Bauer Nina Hartley's guides to sex are a staple in American sex ed. They are the most often recommended; the easiest for consumers to get, and Nina has a widely recognized, trusted name. She is really the "America's Sweetheart" of explicit sex ed videos, in part due to her training as an RN, her comfort with talking about sex, understanding about sex-positivity (and negativity), her lack of gender bias and her strong female perspective on pleasure. Plus, she has a great ass and lots of sexy friends. One of the things I love about her ed videos is that they are always full of authentic female orgasms. *Real* ones, and viewers can tell. This film, a spanking film for beginners, is no exception. First, the disk frustrations. It wouldn't play in one of my DVD players (the good one), but luckily I'm the kind of porn fiend that has 5 options available in her own house. It worked in the crappy Sony.

The Little Details Running Time: 80 min. Production Date: 6 / 23 / 2004 Director: Ernest Greene Cast: Kylie Ireland, Otto Bauer, Audrey Hollander, and of course, Nina Hartley The Short Story Initial Expectations: Im not sure why, but I have a bit of hope here. Initial Reaction: Its one of the best educational type DVDs Ive seen so far. Who Should Watch It : Anybody at all interested in erotic spanking Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who thinks spanking should be dark, painful, and without pleasure The Technical Stuff Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are pretty good. The audio is pretty clear, but the balance is sometimes off a little, theres a slight hiss in the background, and theres sometimes a bit of a hollow sound to the audio. The video is pretty good. Its nicely lit, but there is a little grain and a slightly soft feel. Music: None Menus: The menus are okay. The main menu looks nice and has a little animation to help it out.
