February 23, 2020 When Jamie Gillis Was Accused Of Murder… Twice: The Price of Porn Notoriety – Podcast 95
The adult film actor Jamie Gillis died ten years ago this week.
I started The Rialto Report because I wanted to show that there was much more to the world of adult films than just adult films. And Jamie was one of the best examples of that.
Jamie was one of the great performers in film history, but he was much more than that. He was a French literature graduate, a theater actor, mime artist, traveler, gambler, writer, lover of fine food, and much more. He was someone who enjoyed life and lived it to the full. I knew him well, yet every time I saw him, I discovered a new story about him.
This is one of those stories.
