Del porno considerado como una de las Bellas Artes

This is Hardcore.

Leyendo el por demás excelente Hardcore: Power, Pleasure and the “Frenzy of the Visible” de Linda Williams me topé con un párrafo increíble donde la autora se dedica a comparar la pornografía hardcore con las escenas de películas musicales estableciendo una analogía entre ambos géneros.
Disfrútenlo:

Beyond that there is the fact that the hard-core feature— unlike the silent stag— is quite literally a musical: original music and even songs with lyrics (as, for example, the execrable Deep Throat theme song) frequently accompany numbers, especially the “big production” numbers. Finally, there is the obvious sense in wich the sexual acts listed above constitute a virtual typology of numbers in the pornographic feature. Masturbation, for example, can be seen as a solo song or dance of self-love and enjoyment- à la the “Singin´ in the Rain” number in the musical of that name; straight sex is like a classic heterosexual duet— as in “You Were Meant for Me”, also from Singin´ in the Rain— with oral sex as a variation of this same theme; “lesbian” sex is like the narcissistic “I Feel Pretty” number from West Side Story; ménage à trois is a trio— “Good Monin´” from Singin´ or the beginning of the “Hungry Eyes” number from Dirty Dancing; “sadie-max” is a particulary violent and fetishistic dramatization of dominance and submission —à la the Cyd Charisse-Gene Kelly number in the “Broadway Melody” section of Singin´ in the Rain; and orgies are like choral love songs celebrating the sexual union of an entire community— “Broadway Rhythm” in Singin´ or the “everybody-out-on-the-dance-floor” number of communal integration that ends Dirty Dancing (“The Time of My Life”).

Teniendo en cuenta que el texto original de Williams data de 1989 cuando el porno todavía era bastante ingenuo me pregunto cómo compararía escenas actuales de cum-swapping, fuckthroat o el video de Two Girls One Cup. Como vimos hace un tiempo a un vivillo que quiso seguir las enseñanzas de Williams en un paper lo rebotaron mal.
En fin, todo un misterio.
