Content
The film profiles the life of 16 notable adult film actresses.
Reception
The film was generally badly received by critics; it was referred by the Village Voice as "a tack better suited to Anderson's famed photo collections than a narrative medium" in which the interviews "are cut into such narrow snippets it's impossible to piece together anyone here into a coherent personality".[1]
The Hollywood Reporter wrote that the film "lacks the depth to be much more than a glossily sexy curiosity".[2] According to the Washington Post film critic Michael O'Sullivan, despite being in some moments "surprisingly moving" the film "arouses curiosity without really satisfying it".[3]
