The Porn Game: An Interview With Bel Ami's George Duroy. Bel Ami star Jean- Daniel Chagall. Do you like porn? If you're a gay man, probably. But while the product is meant to be a mindless escape, its production is a rich and controversial subject, even in a community legendarily open about sexuality. When the phrase . Instead, images of countless . There's almost a wholesome quality to Bel Ami's smut, even if the action is as dirty as the business. Speaking of which, the porn industry has undergone a slew of changes in recent years. Beaten down by easy access to free porn online, crowded out by amateur exhibitionists and in some cases ill- equipped to adapt to the market's declining interest in DVDs as opposed to downloads, video companies have come and gone and publishers have mostly just gone. Then there is the hot- button issue of bareback porn, which for many years during the onset of the AIDS crisis was absolutely taboo—Can actors be assured of the status of their co- stars? Does marketing it encourage unsafe sex among viewers? Does anyone care if the money is there?—but which has quickly become a major aspect of the industry in spite of some companies' seemingly principled refusals to succumb to it. With the news that the venerable COLT has filed for bankruptcy, I wondered how other companies were faring and wanted to bring up some of the issues that surround the porn industry. What better company to focus on than one of the largest still standing? What follows is my interview with George Duroy, the founder and president of Bel Ami. He, more than anyone, has an interest in figuring out if gay men will automatically think of his product when the phrase . T: Do you intentionally cater to an American or any other market? GD: Fifty percent of our customers are American and another twenty percent use English as their first language. Bel Ami was originally created as an American company and moved to Central Europe only after George W. Bush declared eradicating pornography to be one of his priorities. The whole company is still run according to the American regulations, and all the systems are in English. All the important employees are required to speak English; our COO is Australian and we have five American employees (another thirty are Czech, Slovak or Hungarian). I write most of my notes in English automatically. T: Bel Ami is famous for its models; how do you find them? GD: Nowadays, mostly through scouts. We have four full- time scouts working exclusively for us and there are others who work with us on a non- exclusive basis. Of course, some boys contact us directly or through our business partners. Occasionally, I meet somebody socially and he ends up as a model.

What qualities does a model have to have to be considered for Bel Ami? GD: I'd say eighty percent of them are exclusive. Being an exclusive is not only about looks anymore. But personality, reliability and a reasonable level of wholesomeness are equally important. Quite often, we take them for long trips. So the question is—can I have him around for three weeks? Is he able to get along with other people? Does he have a drug problem? Would he resist escort offers while working for us? If any of these questions are answered unsatisfactorily, I wouldn't take that boy as an exclusive. Is this a cultural difference, because I think it's hard for some Americans to see them enjoying enthusiastic sex with men, then identifying as straight. GD: . I don't see this necessarily as a cultural difference—most of the models working for Corbin Fisher or Sean Cody are straight as well. I know some gay models in the U. S. I, for one, certainly wouldn't be able to be . We live in a world where traditional labels don't apply anymore, partly as a result of gay emancipation. Being gay is not taboo anymore, and I'd say at least thirty percent of city boys in the Central European region happily experiment with their sexuality. Many enjoy it, but they wouldn't think of themselves as being gay. They simply mingle freely, going with their girlfriends to gay bars and fondling other boys in front of girls. And now tell me—what is their orientation? Sometimes I joke, saying that very few gay men are so enthusiastic during sex with other boys as these . I suspect that gay men lost their monopoly on gay sex as a part of their social acceptance. Or that experimenting with all- male sex is simply . T: Are models ever harassed or do they ever regret being in porn? What happens to them after their days as stars in your films; where is Lukas (pictured) today, for example? GD: Lukas is still a part of the company. About thirty percent of our employees are models. In a production unit, most of them are either active models (like Luke Hamill or Todd Rosset) or ex- models (Lukas, Johan, Marty). Many of our boys are university students and come from regular, middle- class families. And quite a few are bright. For example, Mark Aubrey is our lawyer while Claude Cocteau built and runs our Web site. Dolph Lambert will get his I. T. In September, we will send a number of models for intense language courses to Cape Town so we can start to shoot with them in English. Our initial selection usually pays off. On average, our models stay with the company at least five years. Are they ever harassed? Sometimes really badly. Recently, Kris Evans lost his job with the police force and the tabloids got involved. It is never pleasant, often stressful, yet always good for their integrity and their ability to defend their position. T: Who are your favorite models of all time? GD: Some of them are better performers, others better companions, but I like them all. They can be pretty jealous. T: Bel Ami started doing bareback films a while ago. Some would call this irresponsible for encouraging viewers to do it, others would point out it takes risks with the health of the models and others don't care—they just like it. What do you think about the various reactions to barebacking in porn, and what precautions does Bel Ami take on bareback sets? GD: I guess we've released no more than twelve to fourteen condom- free episodes in all these years. But this question requires a more elaborate answer, even though I have tried to explain my position many times with negligible effect. But let's try it again: Bel Ami is the only company in this business which (in seventeen years) hasn't had a single case of ANY STD on the set. I have the good luck to work in a country where, in the first twenty- five years of the AIDS epidemic, only eight people died of HIV infection as compared to 4. U. S. Eight deaths in twenty- five years doesn't constitute an epidemic—many more people die of ordinary flu here. Therefore, I think that while in the U. S. I also don't think that not using condoms is a single reason for the AIDS epidemic, otherwise everybody in Slovakia would be dead already. I know very few people in this country who use condoms, and all the rest are perfectly healthy. I suspect that it has something to do also with alcohol, drug abuse, promiscuity and the whole gay party/club culture—that's what creates a really deadly mix. I'd also like to say that I carefully followed the situation for twenty years before coming to this conclusion. It doesn't mean, of course, that something can't happen tomorrow on my set. But the chance a model would die in a car accident is about a thousand times higher. As for encouraging the viewer: I don't encourage and I don't promote. If I did, I'd be much richer now. I promoted condoms and healthy sex for seventeen years in my films. In exchange for my goodwill, I lost about thirty percent of my customers at one point. I am unaware of a single case of somebody paying for my films simply because I was promoting safe sex. But I got a lot of hate mail for being . Most of them didn't even acknowledge in these magazines that we (or any other porn studio) exists. Mainstream gay media treats porn like dirt, but keep using porn profits to finance their operations. If they want to promote safe sex, they should start promoting my safe- sex porn in their flagship glossy magazines. That is if they really believe we influence public sexual behavior that much. And if it is not so, then it would seem we simply create . For the time being, I'll settle for compromise and try to stay afloat. Quite a monologue for somebody who still shoots ninety percent of his production using condoms! T: Your use of real twin brothers (pictured) has also been controversial. How did you find them? Was this something they'd been doing together already? Do you have concerns about obscenity charges, especially in the U. S.? GD: Controversy is the way to attract new customers. Nobody would write about you simply because you are a nice guy shooting good stuff. Michael Lucas could tell you something about this. It took me some time to digest this lesson. So I suspect obscenity charges would be good for sales. In the end, it was not Bel Ami who produced this film—I wonder who would be charged? It was shot in a country where it is perfectly legal. They do it with rare energy. They were bugging me half a year that they wanted to shoot it, and believe me I was not in a hurry to agree. Legal counseling cost us more than both their salaries combined. Are they doing it together in private? I've never been in their bedroom, but they stated that if one of them dies the other one would commit suicide—and I don't think they were joking. T: What's your favorite film you've put out? GD: I shot or produced quite a few films, but the only one I shot the way I planned is An American in Prague. But my personal favorite is Summer Camp. It simply has all the elements I like in erotica. T: Have you ever shot a film that you had to scrap or do you have any other disaster stories? GD: I keep scrapping all the time. I daresay I am the biggest porn scrapper in history. We have a whole line of films based on scrapped material, the Out at Last series. In the beginning of each episode, I explain where it was supposed to be and why it wasn't. Lunch provided ($5). VBS: Vacation Bible School Day Camp. June 2. 6–3. 0, 2. For all kids ages 3 (by 6/1/1.
