Max Hardcore (born Paul F. Little on August 10, 1944 in Racine, Wisconsin, USA) is a controversial and unique male porn star and producer whose films usually feature him engaging in variety of sexual encounters with young women who dress and act like prepubescent girls. He has faced obscenity charges and charges of simulating child pornography (no longer illegal in the U.S.), but has never been convicted of these.

Hardcore's films are considered by some to be highly obscene—more so than most commercially available pornography. Some say that his works are misogynistic. Others claim that he is merely exercising his constitutional right of freedom of expression.

In some of his films, usually only available to the European market, he urinates in the mouths of the actresses. Graphic anal sex predominates over vaginal intercourse in his films, and anal to oral activity is common. One unique feature of his films is a setup where he inserts a test tube-shaped cylinder in a woman's anus. A long plastic tube connects the cylinder to her mouth. Hardcore then urinates in the cylinder while the woman sucks the urine out into her mouth through the tube, or she simply siphons out Hardcore's ejaculation.

Other films involve deep throating and vomiting. The actresses vomit and sometimes collect it in a large glass bowl, sometimes visible throughout the scene. In some scenes, Hardcore draws lipstick across the face, vagina, or anus of the actress. Infrequenty, he or another actress slaps the face of an actress.

The plots of Hardcore's videos usually involve him deriding the young women, calling them sluts and whores, and often involves him "tricking" them into performing with the promise of a modeling contract or by playing to their vanity. He not only physically humiliates them, he (according to his characters) makes them revel in their worthlessness as people. He usually has the actresses refer to him as Mister.

Hardcore, who often appears wearing nothing but socks and his signature cowboy hat, is usually the only male actor in his films. The actresses who appear in his films usually dress in very bright and colorful child-like clothing and sport pigtails. Most of the sex scenes take place upon a bright yellow leather couch.

Although he often depicts his actresses as young and sometimes beneath the age of consent, they are not actually under 18. In one of his films, an actress over the age of 18 was portraying someone younger, and the fictional character states that she is 12 years old. This prompted the United States government to bring charges of child pornography against Hardcore which resulted in an indictment. What made the case so significant is that the government did not dispute the fact that the actress was over the age of 18; they brought charges based solely on the fact that the actress was portraying a character who was under the age of consent.One of the most intriguing aspects of Hardcore's adult video career is the fact that he is one of the oldest-looking males appearing in American X-rated productions. One critic noted that Italian porn star Rocco Siffredi planned to exit adult acting at age 40 because he (Siffredi) felt any male over 40 was far too old to appear on camera. Hardcore, on the other hand, has a grandfatherly look that adds to his sometimes sinister onscreen persona. He, like 65-year-old adult actor Dave Cummings, looks more like a card-carrying member of the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) than a porn star.

Just before the case was brought to trial, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the statute prohibiting adults from portraying children in films and books was unconstitutional (See Ashcroft v. Free Speech Coalition ). Based on this ruling, the child pornography charges against Hardcore were dismissed. The city of Los Angeles charged Hardcore with distribution of obscenity, but these charges were dismissed after a jury failed to reach a verdict. An additional obscenity charge was subsequently levied against him by L.A., again resulting in a hung jury. The government has since ceased prosecuting him. Hardcore commented that "it was a frivolous waste of public resources."

In 2001, Hardcore faced charges when a British documentary filmmaker allegedly filmed Hardcore raping porn actress Felicity, who had come to audition for one of his films after being referred by porn agent Dick Nasty. However, Felicity, through her own free will, returned to do a second filming. No charges were ever filed. There was, though, an enormous fallout after the incident, which saw a temporary backlash against the British pornography industry. Following the incident, Hardcore released a statement reading:
