Inside Deep Throat Page #4

(True)

Young people today

would be in it for the money

whereas in the old days,

it was for the rebellion.

(Craven)

Frankly, everybody

in one way or another

was connected to that business

because psychologically,

socially, it was happening.

(Harry Reems)

You know, it was part

of a social movement

at the time.

Anybody who took chances

in breaking the social mores

of the time,

was considered a hero.

(Damiano)

I believed in it.

I believed that it was

about time to say

that sex

is a beautiful thing,

the human body is

a beautiful thing,

and you really

shouldn't be ashamed of it.

(Hopper)

Securing financial backing

from partners

with underworld connections,

Damiano raised

enough money to shoot

a hardcore sex feature.

It was going to be called

The Doctor Makes a House Call.

Then Damiano met his muse,

Linda Lovelace,

and everything changed.

To me, I always looked at her

as the girl next door.

(Hopper)

Before she became world-famous

as Linda Lovelace,

Linda Boreman

dreamt of opening

a clothing boutique

until she met Chuck Traynor.

(Patsy Carroll)

I guess he was an escape

for her.

She was not comfortable

living in her parents' home.

And he took her away

from that.

But things

started getting strange.

Linda told me

that she had quit smoking,

and I said,

"Well, how did you do it,

how did you quit?"

She said that

Chuck had hypnotized her.

She said every time

she tried to have a cigarette,

that she would hiccup.

I'm like, "Oh, well, okay."

(Hopper)

Within a year,

they were married.

I curse the day that

she ever met

Chuck Traynor.

Unfortunately, he died

before I could kill him,

so lucky for him.

Then I lost contact

and her mother told me that

uh, they're living in New York

and he's doing

documentary films,

and I thought,

"How nice, how exciting."

[camera whirring]

(Damiano)

Chuck had come to my office

and I needed a scene

for another film.

He says, "Well,

Linda can do something."

You know, she...

There was no name for it.

He says,

"She gives head very well."

I said,

"Well, that's wonderful."

So we set up with her

and an actor

to do a--a bit

for another film.

And when I saw

what she could do,

I says, "Stop the cameras."

[camera whirring]

All I could think about was

what she was doing

was so unique

that I could build

a whole film around it.

Making a motion picture

specifically about

that sexual act,

I--I found very daring

and very courageous.

(Damiano)

The first thing that came

to my mind was--was the title

of Deep, Deep Throat.

Because something happened

deep down in--in her throat.

What? The clitoris

is in her throat?

Gerry, you can't do this.
