The Girl Next Door is an intimate and humanizing look into the rise to fame of adult film superstar Stacy Valentine. The wheels were set in motion when Stacy's then-husband, to satisfy his own sexual fantasy, urged his Oklahoma housewife, Stacy Baker, to submit her photograph to Gallery Magazine's amateur pictorial competition, voyeuristically named, "The Girl Next Door." Easily winning this contest, Stacy was soon gracing the cover of Hustler magazine and accepting offers to perform in X-rated films. The Girl Next Door is the conflicting story between Stacy Baker and the world of pornography, and Stacy Valentine and her desire for true love. Stacy allows us to experience the exotic world of pornography through the eyes of a former housewife from Oklahoma.

Inside the porn world
This is simply a well done documentry. Stacy valentine was one of the biggest names in porn in the90's. This doc shows you some of the things we here about, yet never see. From her plastic surgery a sit down with her parenrs and here failed relationship with amothet big name in porn Juliane. Great footage and honest reactions.

Trash movie
First, I ordered the wrong film but what I saw of this it wasn't worth the cost even if it was free. Secondly, I'm not to sure what gives with Amazon's streaming but my screen kept flickering, becoming snowy then blank finally it hung my system. My PC is a new buildwith an AMD FX-4300 cpu on an ASUS M5 R2.0 MOBO with an ASUS Radeon HD 6670 Graphics card and 16 meg DDR3 1600 Mhz memory so I know it's not my PC since I stream from other sites as well as several webinars monthly. I suppose it could be my IPS but that doesn't seem to make sense. Anyway what I saw of it, the film sucked.

Be Careful What You Wish For
Lots of twists and turns in this story (as told by Stacy Valentine and her friends). It might be exaggerated in places, but it most definitely has the ring of truth. Small town beauty is urged by her husband to pose for Hustler magazine; money and attention draw her away from the small town and hubby; wealth and fame don't bring her happiness, etc. The big difference here is that Ms Valentine was a sex worker who tired of the complexity and got out. The point which most impressed me was a reminder that consensual sex work is NOT the same thing as sex trafficking (non-consensual sex work). Adult movies border on prostitution and both are legal in countries where logic, reason and sanity are involved in community decision making.

Ahead of its time
A beautifully told tale of a Midwestern girl wanting to make something of herself. The producer captured real, raw emotional moments where you feel very connected to the lead

interesting,and somewhat revealing (3.5/5)
i found this look inside the life of one woman in the adult film business interesting.for whatever reason,she allowed a camera crew to to follow her around,not just while working but also during her personal life.she seemed very candid and opened her self up.and allowed herself to be very vulnerable.or at least it appears that way.but it's clear she's also a tragic figure.regardless,the film is an entertaining piece and somewhat revealing.you see someone as a human being,and not just as a sex object.as interesting as the film is,there are no real revelations.and,when you get right down to it,it's still a sad subject.for me,The Girl Next Door is a 3.5/5

fascinating look at porn industry and its performers
A real eye-opener at the lives of people whose idea of success is to become masturbatory material...

Started this movie but didn't last 5 minutes.
If you are looking for a movie with a story line, this is not it. This is more a documentary about a woman who was never really an athlete in school, etc...who then decides that she has found her niche in life. This wasn't for us.

Review
Did not like it as I wanted an actual movie with a plot. When reading the description, that's what I thought it was & it was not!
