Kink

Christina Voros' Kink (US, 2013) - James Franco continues to build the most singular resume of any Hollywood leading man by producing this diverting docu on the online BDSM scene, though he's safely offscreen throughout. Viewers may understand why after seeing the extreme fetish equipment hauled out for display here, from standard-issue riding crops to whirring anal drills. Still, director Christina Voros is here to educate rather than titillate, aiming to remove the unsavory stigma from an unusual leisure activity. It remains to be seen who will get the message, as scene after scene of explicit sadomasochistic activity will keep the pic confined to the fest circuit. 2013SUN. RATING: 7.
