Award-wining adult film writer/director Jacky St. James is both a creator and a devotee of edgy material, making her a natural choice to provide insights on quality BDSM-themed erotica in the run-up to the release of the ’50 Shades of Grey’ film adaptation.

The trio’s selections span from “the mainstream to the niche”, embracing such titles as Secretary, The Piano Teacher and 9 1/2 Weeks, as well as Dr. Ava’s Guide to Sensual BDSM For Couples.
