I recently finished "Boy in the Sand" about Cal Culver, AKA Casey Donovan. People I know who knew him describe him as a beautiful person, inside and out, and he was a superb prostitute.

 

Since I find him most intersting, and BOYS IN THE SAND is labeled as the first really good porn movie, I have visited many local LA videostores to purchase this film. Everyone in west hollywood is clueless (in more ways than one), and I have had no luck locating it on the interenet either. I have no idea which company produced it in 1971, so I am at a loss and very frusttrated since this is the classic gay porn.

 

Anyone who knows where I can find the original "Boys in the Sand" and not the sequel (called both Boys in the Sand II and Men in the Sand II), please let me know. If you have a copy, perhaps I could purchase it from you. Thank you so much.

Rod,

I don't know if it shows up on the website but it's listed in the most recent TLA print catalog for $39.99 (page 42; item # VX0378). Produced by Wakefield Poole

 

Hope that helps! :-)

Glad you found your copy of Boys in the Sand. I, too, recently read the book. I had expected a quick read with perhaps a nugget or two of interesting info. Well, it was a quick read, but I fell in love with the complexity of Casey Donovan. His desire to live his life well and his sincere hope to have lasting meaning made him a really endearing personality. I've never seen his films but am glad to have had the chance to "know" him through this book.

Our eyes met one night as we were walking in opposite directions on a deserted boardwalk, and--bingo! We were rutting like a pair of wild animals for about ten minutes. Then we pulled ourselves together, exchanged a few pleasantries, kissed good-bye, and continued to our destinations.

Isn't that how Donald met Melania in Atlantic City?

here's a 2014 article about the movie's influence, which references director Wakefield Poole's commentary in a 2002 DVD re-release, which is evidently the version posted by @JoeMendoza upthread......

Thanks for linking the article. I read in another thread about the "groundbreaking" porn flick, but since I never saw "Boys in the Sand" nor knew its historical context, I had no idea why it had a special place in gay porn.

That’s so Fire Island in days of yore.

So perhaps some of us need to go back on the Mount Rushmore thread and edit our nominees. Just sayin'
