First rule of journal ism — don't start a story with a question. But what can be said about The Fashionistas can't be said?

Ten AVN Awards, including those big awards John Stagliano probably told his parents about — Best Film, Best Director (for Stagliano) , Best Actor and Actress (Rocco Siffredi and Taylor St. Claire), Best Cinematography, and Best Music — not to mention those others he wouldn't tell his parents about.

So what's left to be said? How about this?

Stagliano's shot-on-35mm epic of kinky sex and gaping assholes is a great DVD. Encompassing four discs (three DVDs and a CD with the film's soundtrack), Stagliano hasn't cut corners on anything, least of all compression. Two of the DVDs are dedicated to the film (with an audio commentary worth listening to), with the third exclusively set aside for extras. The extras disc includes a behind the scenes featurette that's as interesting as the feature, video from pre-production, and encompasses the 14 days of shooting bonus sex scenes.

Pre-nom for Best DVD, Best Menus, Best Extras, and nominable the Evil Angel DVD crew for authoring.
