The career of director Arthur Bressan Jr. offers an unusual ride of dramatic intensity, going from documentaries (“Gay U.S.A.”) to narrative-driven features detailing troubling subject matters (“Abuse,” “Buddies”). Somewhere in the mix, there was time for more sexual adventures, including 1984’s “Daddy Dearest” and “Juice,” which explore an adult entertainment side to the helmer as he takes on two tales of fantasy, and, in many ways, the demands of daily employment.
