As in the rest of our Real People, Real Life, Real Sex series, XANA & DAX tells the true life love story of a real couple. The first half of the film is an interview with Xana and Dax; how they met, how they fell in love, and what they love about being in love. The second half of the film is a candid love scene, every bit as warm and intimate as the interview. The camera never turns away from the erotic details, but neither does it linger on them fetishistically -- when it's all over, you'll remember the sensuous eye contact as much as the naked bodies. Xana and Dax look like funky, city-wise hipsters, but during the pre-interviews (I typically talk with a couple for 4-6 months before we actually get down to making a movie) they won me over with their heartfelt sincerity. They were both so head over heels in love with each other, and their story had a wonderful twist from the typical masculine/feminine dynamic. When they met, Xana was bold, Dax was shy. Xana knew how to go after what she wanted, Dax was still figuring it out. Even physically they seemed like counterpoints; Xana has blonde hair, blue eyes, pale skin and a curvy figure; Dax has dark hair, dark eyes, darker skin, and a lean figure. In fact, the subtitle "When Opposites Attract" came right from Xana's testimony about how their differences seemed to pull them together. That was a story I could relate to! XANA AND DAX: WHEN OPPOSITES ATTRACT has become one of our bestselling titles. Their interview is disarming and wonderfully sweet; a terrific set-up for their boisterous, inspirational love scene, where you can see how much joy they take in sensuous play and showing off for one another's pleasure. I hope that when you see this film yourself you'll say, "Yes! That's what real love looks like. And it good!" Since its release in 2005, XANA AND DAX has gone on to play in film festivals in the US, Canada, The Netherlands, Italy and Australia. It's also used by sex educators and counselors at places like The Kinsey Institute at the University of Indiana, Planned Parenthood, the San Francisco Sex Information Hotline, The University of Michigan Center for Sexual Health and Boston University's Faculty and Staff Assistance Center. The film has also been featured in articles in Tango Magazine, Jane, Women's Health, Penthouse, and Men's Fitness. --Tony and Peggy Comstock | | | Product Details: | | | Director:

Hot, Sexy, BeautifulApr 26, 2009 Xana is the pagan goddess: voluptuous, tattooed, pierced and blond; while Dax is carved Mahogany, mocha-skinned, lean and agile. Xana is more experienced and leads Dax through sexual exploration, while Dax is shy and just beginning to build his self-confidence as a lover.
The interview is juxtaposed with snippets of the lovemaking session to follow, which builds slowly towards the climax. I really enjoyed watching the interview, as it allows you to get to know the couple a little, before they invite you to share their intimate moment.
The lovemaking is slow and sensual, as they anoint each other with massage oil as if it were a sacred ritual. You can see how much they adore each other and take pleasure in each other's bodies. Their passion is very hedonistic and filled with dreamy reverence and moments of dizzying ecstasy.
The camera moves in and around them like an extension of their desire, never obtrusive, and you get the feeling that you are sharing their experience. They are beautiful, sexy and hot to watch.
Ultimately, Xana and Dax, like Comstock's other films, delivers a much more fulfilling portrayal of sexual desire and intimacy than what you see in the mundane monotony of mainstream adult films. I highly recommend Xana and Dax for couples to share together.

Great concept; poor executionNov 09, 2007 So far I've watched two of Tony Comstock's films: this one and Matt and Khym: Better Than Ever. I recommend the latter over this one. I really like the concept of filming "real" couples who are in love having sex, as emotional intimacy can be even more erotic than just physical intimacy.
However, this movie felt very staged, like a stereotypical adult film sans the comedic entertainment value. This feeling was exacerbated by the sometimes ridiculous camera angles chosen by the filmmaker and the fact the shooting angle seemed to switch every minute. The shots I found to be erotic didn't last long enough for me to appreciate them fully.
I would not purchase this movie again.

Beautiful & Super SexyNov 08, 2007 Xana is gorgeous. Dax is beautiful. The chemistry between them is undeniable. Sexier than 99.9% of of the porn I've seen, and damn if I haven't seen a whole lotta porn.
This would be an excellent choice for both porn neophytes and old-timers.

Fantastic!Sep 13, 2007 I was hesitant to buy Xana and Dax to watch with my wife for obvious reasons. Watching an erotic film seems like it should be a fun way to get things going, but the few times we've tried it we ended up just feeling dirty and sad. Xana and Dax was just SPECTACULAR. It delivered in every way - the story was sweet, the sex was hot and it left us both in a frisky mood and ready to have fun! I highly recommend it to anyone looking to add some spark to their relationship!

A bit misleadingSep 11, 2007 Tony Comstock's films are labeled "Real People, Real Life, Real Sex." While the "real people" and "real sex" lines are true, the "real life" ... well, that's not entirely the case, and that comes into play with his second film "Xana and Dax."
Xana is a buxom, tattooed and pierced Midwestern blonde; Dax, eight years her junior, is a slim dark Brazilian. Like Comstock's other films, the first part is the couple talking about what got them together and what they love about each other; the second part is a admittedly erotic sex scene. Unlike Comstock's other films, which seem to invite the viewer into the couple's bedroom, Xana and Dax's sex scenes take place on a dark set with a brightly lit white bed. If you Google "Xana and Dax" you will quickly learn that, as the couple in Comstock's first film "Marie and Jack" were, they are porn actors, with the difference being that they don't deal with any outside actors (unless, as per Xana's website, you count women for girl-on-girl scenes). While it's obvious they're a couple, there are also more of the conventional porn elements in this film compared to Comstock's other films, namely Xana's physical appearance, which may be offputting for some viewers. Although this was the Comstock film that "O" magazine raved about, I would be hesitant to show this to the adult film neophyte. While "Xana and Dax" is miles above your average porn in quality, it's not Comstock's best.
