GEVI (Gay Erotic Video Index)’s page on Mark Bitler; who, allegedly has only done this one film – The Idol – it just has to be the wrong photo – as I am sure the man playing “Terry Walker” – the “idolizer – who makes love with Kevin Redding in the final scene – is this guy – who sometimes goes as “DOUG” (in photo shoots) or… just look at the curly-haired jockstrapped guy in the photo below….



Mark Farrell in that one film other than The Idol – so my videography/magazinography (spellcheck, a little help?)
who you may remember from such films as:
- Chemistry Lesson , (1976) found in the Junior Cadets series
- The Idol (1978)
who you may remember from such magazines as:
- Young Cadets Vol 1
- Young Cadets In Action
- Hung Cadets
the above 3 are all from that same film – Chemistry Lesson
Below is a pic from SPREE, which is mentioned on the GEVI page – I guess if I weren’t so lazy, I should do a videoclip from The Idol so you’d see DOUG/Mark Farrel is our guy – and perhaps BITLER is his real name, or his porno de plume for just The Idol and it’s just the wrong pic at GEVI????
One reply on “which Mark? both Marks?”
I don’t have a lot to add to this but it does look like the pic on his gevi page is different from all the rest you found, not dramatically but off just enough to make me doubt it’s him too.
I was going to add something I read in a Manshots article about the film, how Kevin Redding (who we know The Idol was his only film) found his scene with Mark to be the hardest to film, since I guess they didn’t have much chemistry. That’s noted on Kevin’s gevi page though, so I don’t really have much to contribute here.

Good question though – and I do think that the Doug model is a match for Mark.
