Connections Edited from Exhausted: John C. Holmes, the Real Story User reviews Review. Top review. Rashomon meets Boogie Nights to produce an interesting if imperfect 'job gone wrong' crime biopic. John Holmes was the worlds' biggest porn star in all senses of the world, however after the fame came a basic life of drugs and crime to get by.
One such job was a robbery and murders at Laurel Canyon in With the police investigating the violent aftermath of the robbery, they take in David Lind who tells them a story of how Holmes set up the whole job and how the planned robbery of 'The Arab' turned out to be a robbery of kingpin Eddie Nash, leading to Nash's revenge killing of the gang except Lind.
However, bringing Holmes in for questioning they get told an entirely different story. With an intriguing and stylish trailer, I was looking forward to the film and, despite it coming and going quickly in the cinema I managed to catch it on DVD. I'm not sure of the true John Holmes story and, after this film I'm none the wiser about the truth or even basic facts.
In a way this does enough to keep the story moving and keeps it interesting enough to watch, with the brutal 'truth' being a very difficult scene to watch, however as a total story it is unsatisfying.
Attempts to bring in issues around John's relationship with Sharon felt too rushed and didn't work, likewise his relationship with Dawn wasn't very well handled.
