As marketing campaigns go, this is a pretty original and immersive one! A24 said “cheers to the perverts!” with a whole ass collection of… well… ass. Of the vintage variety to be precise. It’s no secret that X follows a group of filmmakers as they set out to make “a good dirty movie.” When we meet Pearl in X, she is well into her golden years, with quite the raging libido. Pearl takes us back for a detailed look at this character, an origin story, featuring Pearl’s introduction to her very first adult film. Perhaps a pivotal moment for our young protagonist turned antogonist.
A24 is taking us back to the early 20th century for a slew of stag films, like the ones Pearl would have enjoyed. That’s right, folks. Vintage porn. To celebrate the release (ha) of Pearl and to keep it on theme, A24 has released a collection of vintage adult movies and titled it Pearl’s PeepShow. Yes, it is actual porn. Yes, you must be 18+ to partake.
If you’re so inclined, head on over and take a peek. A peep? Happy Friday.
After your stag film binge, you can head over to the theater and watch Pearl right now. Also go take a look at how her debut kill count stacks up against some slasher titans.
