Leave The Closet Door Open For “Seven Minutes in Heaven”

There is something Unitarian Universalist about Courtney Trouble‘s charming all-girl (and trans) spin-the-bottle romp “Seven Minutes in Heaven: Coming Out,” but instead of free coffee and homemade lemon squares, newcomers get strapped.

Seven Minutes in Heaven: Coming Out

Studio: Reel Queer Productions
Director: Courtney Trouble
Cast: Joline Parton, Sarah Lee Sinful, Carson, Sophia, Puck Goodfellow, Tina Horn, Jae

Review by: Gram Ponante

In a brightly-lit room in San Francisco, seven women, most of whom have never appeared naked on camera before, and a few of that number that have never been with women before, assemble for a spin-the-bottle party.

There’s the absolutely adorable Joline Carson and Sophia, newcomer Sarah Lee Sinful, the dashing Puck Goodfellow, sunny Jae with the “48″ ass,” down-to-business Carson, and my personal favorite, “sleazy rock and roll faggot” Tina Horn.

And what follows is a testament to how good porn can be if the participants simply like each other.

Director Trouble makes sure to light the rooms so we can see, mic the stars so we can hear, and then she simply backs up and lets them flirt with each other.

Frankly, aside from the extra strap-on action and a lack of fake boobs, there is little difference between “Seven Minutes in Heaven” and a (Courtney) trouble-free “Cousin Stevie’s Pussy Party,” in that each of the participants knows she is there for the day so she might as well enjoy it.

Doubtful if the director was too (Courtney) troubled about whether this movie would be accessible to a straight audience, but I appreciated that I as a viewer was not made to feel excluded, as I often do when porn aimed outside my demographic shuts me out with manners, rules, and jargon. I felt like I could have been sitting slightly out of frame reading “Tropic of Cancer” while the cast got to know each other, and I would not have been asked to leave.

    Not an all woman cast…at least one trans man is in the movie. Great review none the less, and look forward to more. #courtneytrouble

    That Puck Goodfellow was game for all that befell (him? her?) was what mattered most to me. As you can see, I need to get my pronouns and terminology right, but what I liked about this movie was that I wasn’t penalized (and that’s not even a pun) with a learning curve, in the same way the participants weren’t.

    And Courtney, I’m banging my welcome gong for you. #courtneytrouble
