Plot
A washed-up adult film actor returns to his Texas home town and tries to rebuild his life through a young girl at a doughnut shop.
Sinekatalog’s take
Sean Baker's comedy-drama follows a washed-up porn star charming his way back home. Simon Rex is a magnetic, infuriating rogue, and the film is funny, uncomfortable and sharply observed.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
