Sagat

In-House Review - Oct 08 2012

Prepare to go deep! Monsieur François Sagat is easily one of the most recognizable porn stars on Earth. His much-discussed trademark scalp tattoo initially is what made him stand out in the often overcrowded field of models; once you've seen him you never forget him. Here now is your chance to go deeper into Sagat than ever before.

He rocketed to superstardom on the heels of searing performances in such modern-day gay adult TitanMen classics as Folsom Filth, Fear and Breakers in which his ferocious on-camera persona was showcased at its very finest. Yet there is much more to the man with the disarming smile, indelible ink and body of a superhero.

Having returned to his mother's home after a stint interning for designer Thierry Mugler that proved frustrating, Sagat embarked on a reinvention of body and mind - transforming himself from introspective outsider into the marvel you see today. Sagat the film takes you on this journey with Sagat the man, as he moves from the porn world into (possibly?) the mainstream.

With appearances in Saw VI, Christophe Honoré's Man at Bath and indie auteur Bruce LaBruce's controversial art-meets-hardcore porn L.A. Zombie already under his crotch, errr... belt, Sagat is ready to make his move. Peppered with insightful comments from his family, directors Chi Chi LaRue and Brian Mills, porn superstars Dean Monroe and Wilfried Knight, as well as footage from his club and runway appearances, performance art pieces and - of course - hardcore X-rated scenes from some of his best porns this film proved that François Sagat brings the heat.

i really liked this movie, just as i suspected as with alot of todays really hot porn stars they are usually covering up a past of being bullied and called names with trying to be very masculine with muscles and sagat just really broke down all the stereotypes and let you in his very lonely world of a a adult porn star...great short movie...and a great price for streaming for less then $2.00 bucks

Francois Sagat is one of the most popular gay porn film stars of all time and in this new documentary we get to know the legend, the man and how he got to the place where he is today. What made us notice him in the beginning was his tattooed scalp and his muscular body and um, er... his large endowment. His early films showed us the man as an insatiable sex machine but there is much more to the man than sex, his body and his smile that makes people want to know him.

He began his adult life by modeling for French designer Thierry Mugler but he found that to be constraining and frustrating so he began to concentrate on building his body while living with his mother. He also decided that he needed to improve his mind as well and we watch him as he and others talk about Sagat, the man. As he built quite a name for himself in the adult film industry, he decided to move into mainstream cinema and took parts in "Saw VI", "Man at Bath" and in "L.A. Zombie", the controversial film in which art and porn come together and directed by legend Bruce LaBruce. He is ready to take the next step now into bigger and more legitimate films.

This film contains interviews and comments from his family and porn producers Chi Chi LaRue and Brian Mills, from porn superstars that he has worked with or who know him on the other side of the camera, Dean Monroe and Wilfried Knight. There is also footage from appearances he has made at different clubs and on the fashion runway as well as clips from his hardcore career.
