After a lot of talking and speculations, the first trailer for “The Canyons,” a “contemporary L.A. noir” style movie was released on Monday.
The film, starring troubled actress Lindsay Lohan and Jewish porn star James Deen in his first non-X-rated film, focuses on “the dangers of sexual obsession and ambition, both personally and professionally, among a group of young people in their 20s and how one chance meeting connected to the past unravels all of their lives, resulting in deceit, paranoia, cruel mind games and, ultimately, violence.”
Despite some adult content in the movie, Deen told “Animal NY” that it is anything but porn, “We are not trying to arouse people. If someone does get aroused, well, it happens. It’s not graphic sex for the sake of graphic sex. In the script you don’t see anything like, ‘You see [Lindsay’s character] turn around and flash her boobs!'”
This current trailer pays tribute to 70s films, while according to the Youtube page, trailers in the styles of ’50s melodramas and ’60s sex comedies are also in the works.
