Christy Canyon: Teen Scenes (1984)
Rating: ★★★
Rating: ★★★
Porn icon Christy Canyon has appeared in countless number of adult films, some of which plotless excursions made solely to include sex scenes, while others serving as legitimate films with sex scenes sporadically placed within the plot. Teen Scenes, a fifty-six minute compilation of rare clips from Canyon's early career as an eighteen-year-old starlet, includes selected scenes from now banned and extremely rare Traci Lords films that were taken off the market when discovered she lied about her age in order to start a career in porn several years before her eighteenth birthday.
With that, Teen Scenes, which can be found on Alpha Blue Archives' Christy Canyon Triple Feature Volume Five, carries a special kind of taboo, even though all the models are of consenting age. The scuzzy videography, complete with 16mm film grain and general VHS wear and tear, only work to add to the arousal factor of watching this film. We open with a sex scene between Canyon and North, where Canyon literally commands the scene, instructing North to watch her fervently masturbate while he masturbates, in addition to performing anilingus on him before engaging him in the missionary position. Throughout the entirety, Canyon remains in control of North and the scene itself, asserting dominance in a way uncommon for such a young woman in porn.
This, amongst her older woman looks and charming wit, contribute to what made Canyon an instant star. Her career blossomed so quickly and remained relevant due to the fact that she possessed beauty and on-screen talents of a veteran actress at ages eighteen and nineteen. Teen Scenes also proves her versatility as a young porn star by showing her engage in a raunchy foursome, right after explaining her wildest fantasy was to be a French maid servicing a wealthy couple in more ways than one, as well as a wide variety of lesbian scenes turned threesomes.
Some of the most arousing scenes, next to the sex, is when Canyon interrupts and monologues to the camera about what drives her wild; she claims to achieve the most sexual pleasure from the missionary position, though doesn't neglect other positions, as well as loving a guy who can handle one of her trademark fellatios by letting her do what she wants and not interrupting her craft. Canyon truly shows her dominant side here, and the clips - taken from films like Battle of the Stars, It's My Body, and Harlequin Affair - are uniformly arousing and strung together because of their quality and not their commonality of featuring a young Canyon, something I (and probably many other avid porn watchers) can't thank the editors enough for.
