Review

The Traveling Journeymen is one of Jean-Daniel Cadinot's most romantic and one of his most intense. As with most of the director's films there's a story here, and this no-condom film is easily one of the most lush - and at times most brutal - films he's ever done.

Two brothers on a massive farm live their lives all sweetly, or so we are supposed to think. Turns out one of the brothers is getting it on with the farmhands (an amazing orgy sequence, replete with a cavalcade of spilt mancream). When one brother finds out, he takes his anger (and pent up emotions apparently) out on his sibling, forcing him into a taboo-breaking bro-on-bro fuck scene.

When a traveler arrives (the hunky and hugely endowed Barthelemy) all hell breaks loose. One brother has recurring nightmares of his other brother - the one falling for the traveler - being repeatedly raped, thus causing his other bro to flee with the donkey-dicked stranger. (Got that?)

The flick continues with scene after lushly photographed scene of the newfound lovers banging in the woods and just about anywhere else they can sneak off to. Flick ends on a rather somber note, with the brother who was left behind pining for his now departed sibling (i.e. fuckbuddy). Top-notch tech credits all around (although some copies come unsubtitled) and some of the most beautiful scenes the director has yet created.

The cum flies everywhere - including in a couple of wide-open gullets - and the intensity of the rough scenes only make the romantic ones stand out all the more. The Traveling Journeymen is unquestionably one of Cadinot's finest. At the very least a must-see, if not a must own.
