약력

Jules Furthman was a magazine and newspaper writer when he began writing for films in 1915. When the U.S. entered WWI Furthman used the name "Stephen Fox" for his screenplays because he thought his name sounded too German, but he reverted to his real name after the war. Furthman became one of the most prolific, and well-known, screenwriters of his time, and was responsible for the screenplays of some of Hollywood's most highly regarded films, such as Mutiny on the Bounty (1935), To Have and Have Not (1944) and Nightmare Alley (1947).

Come And Get It
Writer
The urgent need to get it on never changes, whether the guys are chilling around the house or cuddling up as the weather turns cooler. Just like the chow bell's ring signaled to the ranch hands to feed their appetites, the simple phrase Come and Get It from these energize studs ignites their sexual appetite. Directors Steve Cruz and Bruno Bond bring their trademark high energy to eight steamed up and sweaty lads who ease into sleaze the way Summer slides into Autumn - it just can't be stopped. Nasty Spencer Fox, blond Ridge Michaels, blue-eyed Luke Milan, and hard-bodied Ty Roderick are the demanding tops for bang-up bottoms Edin Sol, Rylan Shaw, Jesse Jordan and Adam Avery. It's all-sex all the way as the overheated and these super-hung, young guys get it on in every room of the house - a cock eating, ass busting bonanza with mammoth cocks sliding up tight holes. So get ready for vigorous and carefree thrills, as these wild bucks Come and Get It.
