By Any Other Name

Dr. Rose Fisher (Mandi Slade) is a renowned psychologist. Her specialty is helping couples who have lost the spark of desire rekindle their passion in the bedroom. But as is so often the case, the fixer needs fixing herself. Rose finds herself torn between the comforting devotion to her loving husband James (Dillon Diaz) and the youthful excitement associated with her dutiful assistant Andrew (Johnny B). Will Rose keep to the safe status quo, or will she take the plunge she counsels so many of her patients to embrace?

"By Any Other Name" is the third film I've seen from director Inka Winter, and the more of her work I see, the more I like it. She's got a knack for good storytelling, and her strongest attribute as a director is her willingness to let her stories develop without giving in to the temptation to rush into the sex. She lets her characters grow and breathe, making the sex all the more impactful. Her style is tailor-made for feature porn.

Dillion Diaz is brilliant as the husband, and I must say that the more I see him play his prim and proper gentlemen roles, the more impressed I am. He's so freaking good at them! Johnny B also delivers a helluva performance as the innocent young student who takes a chance.

The sex is all delicious. Rose and James share a passionate coupling after a romantic dinner at home, and the way they connect during their sex is going to resonate with audiences. They gaze into each other's eyes, and their focus is on pleasing the other. Rose swims in her orgasms, relishing her husband's passionate thrusting. James trembles as his loins throb inside his wife's warmth, making him moan softly as he buries himself inside her.

An eye-opening session with Mrs. Blake (Astro Domina) pierces Rose's psyche and begins to break down her carefully crafted professional armor. The session sticks in her mind beyond the clock's strike, and she finds herself unable to focus as her mind continues to imagine what depravities Allen (Leo Vice) and his wife are up to. She sees the salacious couple fucking poolside in broad daylight, caring not at all who might see them. Her breath catches in her throat as her mind pictures Mrs. Blake riding her husband freely, throwing her head back in ecstasy as his cock fills her pussy. Rose's eyes glaze over as she imagines Allen rocking his wife from behind so hard that her tits flap like a bird's wings as she bites her lip. And she finally exhales as her mind conjures up Allen's lustful ejaculation all over Mrs. Blake's dripping pussy.

The film's sexual climax is a liberating three-way between Rose, James, and Andrew that signifies Rose's surrender. She's not just fucking her young assistant in a taboo tryst; she's also admitting that being a professional doesn't mean she has to be devoid of her humanity. She's allowed to wonder, to explore, to lust, and to indulge just like everyone else. The result is a powerfully tender coupling that sees Rose experience all the pleasure she's been depriving herself of. And it's not just Rose who breaks the shackles of her inhibitions: Andrew and James throw their own chains to the floor and freely engage in pleasures of the flesh with each other. Andrew happily slurps down James' dick, while Rose strokes his smiling face lovingly. And when she takes over, he buries his face in her pussy from behind. The 69 is used to perfection here, and Rose rides her husband in trembling fashion as Andrew runs his hands along both their bodies gently. Andrew and Rose help James unload his seed all over Rose's massive tits.

Inka is officially on my list of must-watch directors now. "By Any Other Name" shows her ability to bring porn to life in a calm and measured way without sacrificing any of the sexual excitement, and that is totally my cup of tea.
