Product Description The erotic documentary XANA & DAX: WHEN OPPOSITES ATTRACT was shot in early 2004 as a follow-up to our first film, MARIE AND JACK: A HARDCORE LOVE STORY. As in the rest of our Real People, Real Life, Real Sex series, XANA & DAX tells the true life love story of a real couple. The first half of the film is an interview with Xana and Dax; how they met, how they fell in love, and what they love about being in love. The second half of the film is a candid love scene, every bit as warm and intimate as the interview. The camera never turns away from the erotic details, but neither does it linger on them fetishistically -- when it's all over, you'll remember the sensuous eye contact as much as the naked bodies.Xana and Dax look like funky, city-wise hipsters, but during the pre-interviews (I typically talk with a couple for 4-6 months before we actually get down to making a movie) they won me over with their heartfelt sincerity. They were both so head over heels in love with each other, and their story had a wonderful twist from the typical masculine/feminine dynamic. When they met, Xana was bold, Dax was shy. Xana knew how to go after what she wanted, Dax was still figuring it out. Even physically they seemed like counterpoints; Xana has blonde hair, blue eyes, pale skin and a curvy figure; Dax has dark hair, dark eyes, darker skin, and a lean figure. In fact, the subtitle "When Opposites Attract" came right from Xana's testimony about how their differences seemed to pull them together. That was a story I could relate to!XANA AND DAX: WHEN OPPOSITES ATTRACT has become one of our bestselling titles. Their interview is disarming and wonderfully sweet; a terrific set-up for their boisterous, inspirational love scene, where you can see how much joy they take in sensuous play and showing off for one another's pleasure. I hope that when you see this film yourself you'll say, "Yes! That's what real love looks like. And it good!"Since its release in 2005, XANA AND DAX has gone on to play in film festivals in the US, Canada, The Netherlands, Italy and Australia. It's also used by sex educators and counselors at places like The Kinsey Institute at the University of Indiana, Planned Parenthood, the San Francisco Sex Information Hotline, The University of Michigan Center for Sexual Health and Boston University's Faculty and Staff Assistance Center. The film has also been featured in articles in Tango Magazine, Jane, Women's Health, Penthouse, and Men's Fitness. --Tony and Peggy Comstock Review 'I loved Xana and Dax because they're a real couple, with genuine orgasms, and a sincere admiration for each other,' Stacey says. 'We watched it straight through, and even though we were tired as usual, we had sex right after.' And they changed their usual routine by trying a new position from the video. --Sex Homework by Jaime Waxman for Women's Health MagazineXana and Dax look and sound not just like real people, but people I'm actually friends with. They talk about how they met, how much they enjoy each other's bodies and their general love and appreciation for each other in a way that you won't see in any other erotic movie. --Abby Ehmann - Eros MagazineI had an unanticipated and welcome response the other night watching Xana and Dax by Comstock Films (Real People, Real Life, Real Sex). Comstock has created something that producers have been trying, with limited success, to make for years -- truly sexy, artfully shot, erotic films with real couples. --Sasha - Eye on Toronto P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); About the Director Husband and wife team Tony and Peggy Comstock create films that explore the real and vital role that sexual pleasure plays in binding couples emotionally.

Icky
Ick. I threw it away. That was a waste of twenty dollars but was basically my fault as I ordered it thinking it was a different type of movie than it was.

The gold standard for a new genre of arousing, intimate documentary films
Tony Comstock is the creater and master of a new genre of films: explicit couples' sexuality documentaries. Comstock states that "intent to arouse" is often cited as the dividing line between art and porn. Of all the emotions a director might hope to induce in an audience, arousal remains the last taboo, and Tony Comstock takes it head-on.In Comstock's award-winning Xana and Dax: When Opposites Attract, he stays true to his mission of showing flesh in the context of intimacy and love. The conversation between husband and wife is in many ways more revealing than the pure sex, as the two discuss their initial attraction, personal turn-ons, secret desires, and intimate moments. In this case, Xana, the pale blonde with a gorgeous full-color back piece, is the older and more experienced of the two. Brazilian Dax is shyer about his sexuality and reveals some of his early fears about his body hair and lovemaking style.The DVD is straightforward and to-the-point. The first half consists of a conversation with Xana and Dax, with brief segments from their lovemaking style interspersed within the narrative. The second half is an uninterrupted bedroom session (outtakes from which are what add spice to the first half of the move). The viewer is a part of their bedroom, and at no time does it appear that the director has interrupted to give them any cinematic tips. This is raw and intimate, beautifully shot, with no exaggeration or acting.This is recommended along with the other Comstock Films advertised on the DVD. Just watch the outtakes and you'll be rushing out to purchase Marie & Jack (Comstock's first film, with married pornographic actors), Damon & Hunter (a male gay couple), Ashley & Kisha (a female lesbian couple), and Matt & Khym (a 30-something married couple).

Great concept; poor execution
So far I've watched two of Tony Comstock's films: this one and Matt and Khym: Better Than Ever. I recommend the latter over this one. I really like the concept of filming "real" couples who are in love having sex, as emotional intimacy can be even more erotic than just physical intimacy.However, this movie felt very staged, like a stereotypical adult film sans the comedic entertainment value. This feeling was exacerbated by the sometimes ridiculous camera angles chosen by the filmmaker and the fact the shooting angle seemed to switch every minute. The shots I found to be erotic didn't last long enough for me to appreciate them fully.I would not purchase this movie again.

Just okay.
Their discussion of their attraction for one another is open, honest and refreshing to hear. Their lovemaking is rather quiet and not all that imaginative, hence not all that exciting (to us; you may feel diferently).

No realistic
Did not like it. Couple played it on camera and it did not seem like they enjoy the process either. Anyway, did not work for me.

In love and making love
Comstock has developed a truly enjoyable formula. The disc begins with the couple talking to an unseen interviewer. They summarize the history of their relationship briefly but spend a good bit more time talking about each other - their real love for each other, and especially for each other's bodies comes across throughout. It's something I know and value in my own life, the sense of beauty that deepens with affection. It would be easy to look at one or the other and see nothing special, until you see each through the other's eyes. My own beloved is an enchanting beauty, to me, but her beauty seems hidden in plain sight from almost everyone else.Scenes in the interview alternate with sequences from the bedroom, illustrating points they make in the interview and setting a happily erotic mood. Then, about halfway through the disc, we switch completely to the bedroom. For the next twenty minutes or so, we follow this loving couple from their initial caresses and undressings, through the full heat of their lovemaking, to a warm, lazy moment at the very end. If you've been turned off by other "adult movies," the pervasive sense of affection and play will be a pleasant change. You may also enjoy the feeling that loving people don't have to meet some standard of plastic perfection - just being a regular person is pretty special, to someone who loves you. I don't know how to describe the tone of the movie, but I feel as if a nice couple with something to share has invited me over for a special evening. That very last frame, when Xana gazes dreamily into the camera, seems to say that she's glad that you, the viewer, could be part of what's so wonderful between them. I am grateful to them for their gentle, generous offer.-- wiredweird

Not my type, to others maybe or maybe not.
This DVD I found it not good and very much kinky. It definitely wasn't mine kind of movie and didn't watch after the first time.
