Vintage USA porn: 'The Pizza Boy: He Delivers'
This 1986 film has to be the granddaddy of all gay films if only because its subject matter has been a trope of porn straight and gay for so long, indeed it still is if the number of videos of boys greating their pizza delivery boy completely naked - often with a hard on - is anything to go by. Made by gay adult film director William Higgins when he was still working in the United States, shooting on film and working with real people. As one reviewer on IMDb says:
'It has a great cast...such as David Ashfield and Grant Fagan who look like everyday guys you might work or go to school with, and that makes the sex scenes feel very real. It is no coincidence that Ashfield and Fagan headline PIZZA BOY's two hottest scenes, which both take place in a "park" at night (read: picnic table in a dark soundstage). In the first scene Ashfield, playing the more experienced (but still boyishly innocent) role, introduces Fagan to the joys of oral gratification. Of course, Fagan responds enthusiastically (with both having nice slow-motion pop-offs shot from several angles, a Higgins trademark). In a second scene later in the film, Fagan stretches out on the picnic table as Ashfield takes it to the next level. Ashfield and Fagan's chemistry (complete with semi-realistic dialogue, at least by Pornland standards, that they actually seem to have fun with) makes their pairing the high point of the film. The other actors' tableau are good, but they all (particularly the voyeurism scene at the end) pale in comparison. The weak ending, though, has been a career-long weakness of director Higgins: He never seems to know which sex scenes are the hottest, so his films always end on a slight downswing. In this case, it is the only thing that keeps PIZZA BOY from scoring a perfect 10.'
