I have to say I was really curious about how a drama describing a life of a porn director could look like.
And I was surprised! Never ever in my life have I thought that I would have my fingers crossed for a porn director to make more good porn movies. The story was really good, it had dramatic moments, surprising moments, good and bad and even scary moments, all in one big package.
First thing to say - if you are easily embarrased by watching adult content, you will be here as well. Some of the scenes are really explicit, so be prepared for that before watching. Generally said, the drama is not afraid to talk about all the things related to human sexuality.
I thing one of the best thing here are the actors, especially Takayuki Yamada (playing the director, Toru Muranishi) and Misato Morita (playing famous porn star Kaoru Kuroki). Their acting skills were really number one!
I really recommend watching it for everyone who is open about these topics, as it can decribe really well some part of Japanese mentality which is usually "hidden" for everyone and also it's interesting to see how the porn industry was developing through time and what was behind it. It also rises questions about human sexuality, position of women in it and many other interesting topics, all without any taboos.
