The documentary on Jonathan Agassi is awesome. He was a a great performer. I couldn't have guessed the back story - or that his scenes were so dependent on drugs. I suppose most of us don't think about the cost of the porn we enjoy. Maybe everyone in a high stress job is tempted to boost performance through drugs - you hear enough about drug-fuelled financiers - but more of me is invested in the porn stars I admire. They share so much of themselves in what they do that we feel we know them - they are for us 'friends' - so that, when we hear of bad things happening to them, we are sad.

So Jonathan is now working in a supermarket in Israel - but I hope that he will one day look back to the good things in his career in porn, and takes pride in the pleasure he gave so many people. You were one of the greats, lad.
