Biography

When a teenager in Egypt, Jean Guilloré discovered and practiced erotic photography but soon forgot about it to become a famous French writer for children, awarded, invited to public lectures in schools. He also collaborated with a famous magazine 'Je Bouquine' (I read), held by the catholic press group Bayard. Besides, Jean Guilloré worked as a technician for French national television (Thalassa) and even adapted his book Le voyage de Nicolas (The odyssey of Nicolas) for French national TV. He got married with 3 children (3 girls). But, by the age of 40s, while he had everything everyone could want to be happy, he realized he could get old without having done what he really wanted to do when a teenager... and, after a experience with a German student in literature who had come for an interview about his books, he decided to use his skills to make erotic pictures. He elaborated and produced the first interactive CD for adults. Unexpectedly, it proved to be a huge success and, in spite of the strain generated in his family life (he got divorced), he decided to pursue. Nowadays, he has become the most talented and the most interesting porn movies French director. He considers himself as a movie director acting in a specific field, trying to deal with censorship, and suffers from being considered, as any other porn director, as a guy making money with ordinary sexual frustration. His movies are really well written ('XYZ' reminds Eric Rohmer's movies) and well made (technically, 'French beauty' can compete with most of mainstream movies).
