Bonjour Pierre,

I like your films and european porn in general. I have a certain idea that maybe you can help me understand and that is: the presence of straight men who are directing gay films. I can think of two: Alberto Rey and Herve Bodilis. But I hear there are others. I just find it interesting.

Herve Bodilis makes some really wonderful films with beautiful female talent and .
So I am not trying to question whether or not he is "really straight." I am only interested in how he is able to turn out gay films and why he is interested in doing so. he seems to take the making and directing of this type of porn very seriously and to have genuine abilities in working in this genre. He has created many of these films which suggests they like doing them.

Did he ever talk to you about his involvement in gay film? Do you have any opinions about these types of men? he seems to have this other side to them... this ability to deal with eroticism between men, which is a bit different...

Do you think that maybe some European men are a bit different, that there is a different sensibility over there than in other parts of the world?

Thanks, I'd be happy to hear from you.

He is my friend, I know Hervé since 15 years !!!
He was my photographer and assistant already in 1999 and for sure he is not a gay ...
I never have the feeling he can be gay but the only thing I know about myself, I can't shoot gay movies...but I could make a gay video line with my name on it, I have no problem with homosexuality.

Okay,

Sounds like you don't know too much about his other side... Maybe he love women but he is ALSO able to relate to and understand eroticism between men in some way. He is able to get pleasure from evoking and filming sex between men.

Anyway, my girlfriend really likes Herve's gay movies. She is interesting, no? She told me about him : "do you know if is he still directing at this time, still performing in straight porn or has he retired from the industry?"

Thanks

For sure he is not retired from industry !!!
He is the responsable of the Marc Dorcel video department for whom he also shoot nice production regulary.
Today morning had a breakfast together at the Marriott in Paris. We are old friends still ...

He has worked a lot with Miss Lenvin too, did you talk about her with Hervé, if so what's his opinion, does he find her a bit unreliable or he thinks like me and almost everybody else that Ines is amazing?

You should ask him if you want have the perfect answer. As far I know, he likes her of course !!!

PW

Thx, I will

Is he still in the business? All of his social media accounts are inactive for a long time, and I haven't seen any movie directed by him to come out lately...

He is now the managing director for Dorcel and supervise all productions !!!
