Johnny’s summary:
Beauty From Pain is a romantic drama where an American woman Laurelyn (Samantha Allsop) arrives in Australia with her best friend Addison (Arielle Cartwright) for an extended holiday. Laurelyn is a wannabe singer and when she plays a song at a bar, she is spotted by a mysterious man, Jack Henry (Jackson Gallagher), who pursues her and makes her an offer: he wants to be with her for the three months, while she’s in Australia, then they’ll both go their own way. Laurelyn is reluctant at first but Jack Henry woos her and she comes around. Jack Henry is an entrepreneur who owns a winery which is being sabotaged by a vengeful ex, Audrey (Brittany Grey), who tries to sabotage his fling with Laurelyn. Laurelyn also has her issues as her mother wants her to meet her absent father. Also, a previous fling still wants to be with her. Things go well for the most part and end up going too well as the emotionless Jack Henry starts to fall for Laurelyn, something he did not expect to do – but is it too late to win her heart before she leaves?
Johnny’s review:
Typically overwrought romantic drama, perfect for Passionflix with a fair smattering of tame sexy stuff and ends in a way that suggests they’ll be more in the future. The story is fairly rote and after an initial set-up all other characters are given the short-shrift. Pretty much exactly what you’d expect from a movie like this.
Not much nudity, but some and it looks to be a bit steamier than you usually get from such romance flicks. Especially the shot of her sitting on his face. There should be more of that in these romance movies, as there is nothing more romantic from my perspective than a hairy pussy being ground into you that way. Okay, let it be preceded my nice candlelight dinner, with some red wine, and good conversation…but let’s get eventually to him eating her out.
