Sexual Intimacies (IM12)

Studio: Abby Winters

Stars: Indiana, Jilly, Irene, Sahara, Gillian and Kitty

Running time: 2:10 (feature) 4min (bonus)

It's no secret that I love Abby Winters titles. In a porn world were all the girls are rail thin, gaunt, tattooed, siliconed, salined, botoxed and spray-tanned to where nothing original is left, who howl at orgasm loud enough to set off car alarms on the street, and deep-throat dildos larger than my arms--there's this little oasis on the other side of the world where the girls look and act like women I'd meet in the local coffee house. There's a place for the glitz and the glamor and the gloss (Michael Ninn's stuff is great), but I'm glad Abby Winters gives us real.

Six girls in six scenes, plus a "bonus". The scenes:

Indiana and Jilly help each other out. Indiana is a moderately busty blond, Jilly is a brunette. There's a mix of mutual masturbation and side-by-side independent action.

Irene and Sahara are two cute brunettes who masturbate each other.

Indiana is back for some solo fun.

Kiki is a very pretty, busty black girl who takes care of business on a sofa.

Gilian and Kitty M, two brunettes (one with a lot of highlights) do some side-by-side, but no-contact, masturbation

and finally Mandy M., a moderately busty brunette, finishes herself (and the DVD) on a bed.

One of the things I really like about AW titles is that there's a lot of variation. Many genre compilations look like checklists, and each scene looks like every other scene, except for the girl and the panties she take off. This, however, gives us a lot of different stuff. There's solo masturbation, two-girl solo masturbation, and two girl lesbian masturbation. There are blondes and brunettes and one black girl. A couple who are classically pretty, others who are girl-next-door types. A couple who are exotically attractive. There are no toys, but the girls take care of themselves different ways--some play with their breasts, some spend all their time on their clits, some like penetration. Some are louder than others, though (thankfully) none of them have a raise-the-roof screaming O that's featured in every lame-ass scene found elsewhere. If you have some voyeur in you and you like the idea that you're seeing what these girls would be doing when nobody's truly around, this is great stuff.

Great photography, but it's static camera (they set up and leave the room before the performers begin), so sometimes the girls are positioned in ways you may not like, but usually blocked views are only temporary. No annoying music. Good sound, though a couple of times I thought some energetic pussy rubbing sounded like sanding a block of wood, and worry whether there'll be any clitty left at the end.

Special Features: Just one scene, a short scene with Indiana and Jilly who talk among themselves about masturbation before their scene begins. I'm not sure why this got cut and tacked on as an extra instead of being part of Scene 1, but there it is. Also: four trailers for other AW titles, and in my opinion AW trailers are better than most porn features I've seen. If you can get off quickly, these might be worthwhile just by themselves.

One special note: my copy of the DVD has a goofed chaptering. Even though Mandy M. gets her own chapter title, each time I clicked on it I was taken to the Gilian and Kitty scene instead. The only way I could get to Mandy was to start the whole movie and then manually skip to it. Annoying, since Mandy is my favorite on this DVD and should not be missed. Hopefully Abby will fix the menuing on subsequent runs, if they haven't already.

Final verdict: If you like real-world masturbation: real looking women getting themselves (or each other) off in a realistic way, and especially if you like masturbation-centered lesbian action, then this is a must-have. It's up to AW's typical production standards. There's a lot of variety. And it's a winner with me.
