Connection
Alex de Renzy is a Director American born on 13 august 1935 at New York City (USA)
Alexander de Renzy (August 13, 1935 – June 8, 2001) was an American director and producer of pornographic movies.
Born in New York, de Renzy served in the United States Air Force, as a Survival Instructor. Back in the United States, he began making documentary films in San Francisco. In October 1969 he went to Denmark to attend Sex 69, the first porn trade show hosted in Copenhagen after the legalization of adult pornography there. This resulted in his first movie, Pornography in Denmark, which was released the following year.
Alex de Renzy not only filmed hot sex scenes but he also endeavored to tell a story. He was the editor on Sexual Encounter Group (1970), was cinematographer on seven movies and wrote five screenplays. His production Lady Freaks (1973) introduced porn star legend Annette Haven. His films also include the two 1970s porn classics Babyface (1977) and Pretty Peaches (1978).
Another de Renzy discovery was Desireé Cousteau. She won the Adult Film Association of America award in 1978 for 'Best Actress' for her starring role in Pretty Peaches and became an international sex star. The plot of Pretty Peaches derives from Voltaire's literary classic Candide about a naive young woman undergoing a series of hardships which constitute the satire. But de Renzy's film is more high camp than high art. Peaches contains a notorious enema scene (and for a time censored from the VHS release, restored in Alpha Blue's DVD release) in which the powerful jet-spray from Cousteau's hindquarters knocks the administering physician to the bathroom floor, to which Peaches bemoans "I don't think he could cure anything!"
A third actress de Renzy introduced to adult films was Juliet Anderson, better known as "Aunt Peg".
He won the Adult Film Association of America award in 1977 for Best Director for "Babyface", and was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame and the XRCO Hall of Fame.
After filming his final story-driven works, "Slave to Love" and "Two Women", de Renzy reinvented himself as Rex Borsky in 1991. He churned out adult-video quickies, shooting over 200 hardcore videos, with a special emphasis on anal action. With titles like "Anal Siege", "Anal Madness" and "Anal Sluts and Sweethearts", it was clear what Borsky's intentions were.
Alex de Renzy suffered a fatal stroke and diabetic attack while in his hotel room in Los Angeles during the production of his last video.
Les films qu'Alex de Renzy réalise par la suite incluent deux classiques de la pornographie des années 1970, Babyface (1977) et Pretty Peaches (1978), dont le scénario est librement inspiré de Candide. Il a notamment lancé les carrières d'Annette Haven (Lady Freaks, 1973), Desiree Cousteau (Pretty Peaches, 1978) et Juliet Anderson (Aunt Peg).
Au début des années 1990, Alex de Renzy abandonne les films scénarisés - son dernier est "Two Women" (1992) qui lui vaut l'AVN Award du meilleur réalisateur - et se tourne vers des productions entièrement constituées de scènes de sexe, généralement centrées sur la sodomie, qu'il réalise sous le pseudonyme de Rex Borsky. Il meurt en 2001 à Los Angeles.
Il est membre du XRCO Hall of Fame et de l'AVN Hall of Fame.
