Director Conny Haller's "French Erection" is a play on the French adage of "le ronde" (what goes around, comes around). It comes to the U.S. by way of Ikarus Entertainment, perhaps the only Swiss company in the gay porn business, a company that stands behind two standards: outstanding production values and international casts filled with studs from virtually every European country.
This flick takes place in France in the summer, primarily outdoor settings. Forget the plot. By the end, the cast is literally hanging from trees. Concentrate on the sex and the emergence of another one of those beautiful Czechs who is not top-billed, Beny Motolka, but steals this flick like the infamous American bank robber Willie Sutton stole money.
In a field, lanky and flop-haired Horst Wieland is sucking his bleach-blond friend Toby Steiner. Eric Chateau, a dark and hairy interloper who apparently owns the estate, spots them, gets excited, whacks off, and in his hasty retreat drops his wallet. Toby bends over and Horst fucks him. Voila! They both cum, kiss, and then discover Eric's wallet. They decide to return it to his villa.
Meanwhile, three visitors in the area go cycling and stop for a tripartite fuck. This would be the goofy-faced cute blond Pierre Lindt, the very handsome and suave-looking brunet Tom Ewans and Beny Motolka, who not only resembles Tom but is an absolute clone of American porn stars Danny Rhymes and Tanner Hayes. This is a frenetic sexual encounter that is splendidly edited. The prey is definitely Beny who at first seems somewhat trade-y as both he and Tom go after the puckish Pierre. But then Tom discovers Beny, whose unique oriental neck tattoo brands him throughout the flick as "not Tom," and begins a loving dive into his hole. It's beautifully filmed and you can almost taste what Tom is lapping up. With a black Labrador retriever barking in the background, Tom plunges his cock into Beny's heart-shaped ass as Pierre stuffs the beauty's mouth with dick. It's a surprise, and it's followed by a funky rim by Pierre of Tom, who hangs upside down from Anton's shoulders. The three cum all over their shoes and take off.
Adorable blond studpup Anton Elsinski tells his friend Eric how he was assaulted and then seduced by a riverbed by blond Karel Prochazka and preppy brunet Aurelius. They carry him off, strip him, and Aurelius sucks his cute post-pubescent cock while Karel covers him with kisses. Aurelius then doggy-fucks the blond while Karel feeds his mouth cock. The two friends then reverse roles. Anton eventually finds his most comfortable position atop Aurelius' big cock cowboy while rimming Karel's sensational blond-covered pink hole that Karel offers up to Aurelius doggy as Anton eats Karel's cock. Anton gets a double dose of cream on his face and lips as he explodes luscious loops from his fat cock. "Ciao, ciao" the interlopers say as they run off to the pool at Eric's estate.
Poolside, Karel is admiring the splendidly built Tom, who is on his back on the diving board taking in some rays, his massive cock showing promisingly through his tight swimsuit. Never one to let a cock go by him, Karel immediately seduces Tom and they kiss, lick, 69 and fuck their way through a romantically sweet session which is simply Tom in Karel doggy, missionary, sidesaddle and crosswise on the deck and in the deck chair. Both explode in juicy bursts and clean each other off, wrap themselves in towels and pad off.
Meanwhile Beny has been discovered under a tree by Aurelius and Toby, while sweet Anton has succumbed to the wishes of his host, Eric, and is fucking his older host doggy by the barbecue pit while lunch is cooking.
Back under the tree, it has become obvious that while there's plenty of cock to be had by all there really is only one ass to fuck, Beny's, which is impaled by Aurelius as Toby shoves his cock into Beny's throat. Anton and Eric come by and soon it's "let's watch Aurelius fuck Beny" time. A stand-up doggy-fuck-chain is put together with Eric in front, Anton up him, Toby in Anton and Aurelius in Toby as Beny spends his time eating out Aurelius' hole. Everyone gets an asscrack cum-bath, except Beny, who is at the end of the chain.
Tom the rake is now alone in his bedroom with Toby as they share the most intimate and believable love scene so far, kissing and hugging and licking and rimming in and out of the comforter, above and over the bed, until Tom takes Toby for a magic face-down doggy-fuck. Then, in a major surprise, the seemingly super top Tom sits on Toby's fat boner and rocks and rolls his way to ecstasy, most of which is framed from above in a manner that contrasts the two splendidly. Tom is more evenly tanned than the lighter Toby, who is not really a blond but comes off as such with his pinkish body and cheeks. The close-ups of Toby's fat cock between Tom's perfect lobes are worth the price of admission, as are their spectacularly splashy cum-shots.
Toby looks out the window and sees that as night falls Beny has made a move on Aurelius as they stand smoking under a multi-branched old tree. They kiss and entwine tongues, limbs and crotches in the blue-tinted moonlight before Beny drops to his knees to give the best blowjob in the flick. He holds Aurelius' hard cock in his fist and pulls it in and out of his mouth in hungry gulps. They continue this way as Karel comes up to join them, kissing Aurelius deeply as Beny continues to feast on Aurelius. Then things simply get out of hand as every other member of the cast moves into the scene, lit in white light against a blue backdrop. Before you realize it, there are arms and legs in the branches, cocks hanging out all over the place, mouths and holes devouring cocks, and, through it all, Beny in the middle lapping up dick and being worshipped by one and all. It is a scene which cannot be described in a "he did this to him and then this one did that to him" sort of way. It's almost like a phantasmagoric sensual send-up of an Edwin Gorey illustration. But, in the end, it's cocks spilling cum, rather than bodies spilling "sang."
