Top Models

About This Movie

So, 'Top Models' from 1985, well, it’s quite a departure from the stylish narratives Cadinot was known for. Under the name Tony Dark, he really leans into a grittier, more raw aesthetic here. The pacing feels a bit more frenetic, and there's a palpable emphasis on the physical interactions rather than the storytelling. You get the sense that this was a bold experiment during the pre-condom era—really exploring those rougher edges of kink. The performances, while not always polished, have this authenticity that adds to the atmosphere. You can tell they’re leaning into the heat of the moment, making for some striking visuals that stick with you long after the film ends.

Collector interest in 'Top Models' has been rising as it stands out from Cadinot's other work. Though not as well known, it's a fascinating snapshot of its time. Format-wise, it seems to have had limited releases on both VHS and DVD, which adds to its collectible charm. Those looking to dive into the evolution of gay adult cinema might find this title particularly intriguing.
