Nights in Black Leather is a 1973 gay pornographic film directed and co-produced by Richard Abel under the pseudonym Ignatio Rutkowski for Jaguar Studios, Abel was also responsible for cinematography, editing and music. The film's original title was Post Haste Hustle, but was changed by the distributor to Nights in Black Leather.
It is the first of just two gay porn films to feature German American photographer and model Peter Berlin to star as himself, credited in the film as Peter Burian, however following the threat of a lawsuit from another actor named Peter Burian, the main star changed his name to Peter Berlin and became hugely popular under the new name.
A German immigrant (Peter Berlin) walks around in San Francisco looking for adventure. With scenes shot in North Beach, Land's End, and all over San Francisco, Nights in Black Leather is both an erotic romp and a time capsule of gay life in San Francisco in the early 1970s.
