VALENCIA, Calif.—Lesbian adult film studio Girlfriends Films has set a personal record and a milestone: It has now produced a total of 700 original feature titles, going a long way towards cementing the studio’s image as the most prolific girl/girl entertainment company of all time. The title of that 700th feature isn't being released just yet, as the company plans a big promotional push for it next week, but sources say it's one of three finished titles that are all ready to go.
Founded by director Dan O’Connell in 2001, Girlfriends Films has strived to produce original all-girl content and set itself apart as a leader in the adult entertainment industry. In a compelling retrospect published online at the official Girlfriends Films blog, and in their upcoming monthly newsletter, O’Connell gives an overview of his experiences, trials and triumphs while creating some of the most memorable and engaging lesbian pornography fans have come to appreciate.
“From the beginning, I tried to do things differently from the big companies,” the director states. “When I was packing and shipping all the mail orders myself, I included a hand-written thank-you with every order.”
O’Connell also reminisces about the creation of the fictional town of Thornhill and popular series like Girls in White, Road Queen, and the saga dubbed "the most awarded series in the history of adult movies," Women Seeking Women. “Nearly all of my movies center around the snooty, old-money town of Thornhill, which give them a sense of continuity and familiarity.”
When it comes to the ultimate success of the brand as a whole, the director gives credit to the fans and everyone behind the scenes including the crew, staff, distributors, customers, and “especially our talent.” He goes on to say, “It takes a courageous soul to get nude and have sex for all the world to see. Few people have the nerve to do that."
Moose, President of Girlfriends Films, also gives credit to the fans for reaching the unprecedented milestone.
“We are so honored to have some of the best, most loyal fans,” he states. “All of us at Girlfriends are thankful for their support. We also want to thank the incredibly talented directors, cast and crew who have worked so hard to reach the milestone of our 700th movie release, and we look forward to many more titles to come.”
This summer, Girlfriends Films became the first all-girl porn company to reach 100K followers on Twitter, marking the girl/girl adult company as the most followed in their category. Last year, Girlfriends Films announced their 600th release was Women Seeking Women 131.
