Editorial Reviews
In 1972--before the internet, before the porn explosion--Deep Throat was a phenomenon: the first scripted pornographic theatrical feature film, featuring a story, some jokes, and an unknown and unlikely star, Linda Lovelace. Escaping a strict religious family, Linda discovered freedom and the high-life when she fell for and married charismatic hustler Chuck Traynor. As Linda Lovelace she became an international sensation--less centerfold fantasy than a charming girl-next-door with an impressive capacity for fellatio. Fully inhabiting her new identity, Linda became an enthusiastic spokesperson for sexual freedom and uninhibited hedonism. Six years later she presented another, utterly contradictory, narrative to the world--and herself as the survivor of a far darker story.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
but not all of it is,
ok, you have either seen or heard of "DEEP THROAT"
this is kind of what the show is about, NOT THE MOVE!
its about the story of Linda Lovelace and how she got into
porn to begin with, she was not a drug addict needing her fix or anything like that.
she was a shy young lady , that wanted to be know by others,
but ended up meeting the wrong guy and because she trusted him so much,
she ends up marrying the guy.
remember this all happens back in the swinging 50's and 60;s into the 70's
back then,m it was all about love and peace and all things rock & roll
you will hear some good old music from that era too!!
the women that plays Linda Lovelace will grow up in front of your eyes and trust the wrong people
and get hurt because of it, but you will also get to see how she makes its through all of it
what and where does she go from there or does she,
watch the show and see, you want be disappointed, unless nudity bothers you
and there is not near as you might think,
if you want the real story of deep throat without watching it,
watch this movie and you will learn a lot!!
I must admit I didn't enjoy this much.
The only redeeming factor was the costuming.
Though the era is recreated fairly well, more attention could have been paid to the spirit of the times--the sexual revolution and showing why Deep Throat was such a hit with mainstream audiences.
Linda's character, a wide eyed innocent, remains the same until the final minutes when we fast forward to the 1980's and the Donahue show. Peter Sarsgaard as Linda's sleazy husband does nothing that Eric Roberts didn't do better thirty years earlier in Star 80; James Franco is woefully miscast as High Hefner, while Azaria, Noth and Mazar are just about perfect in their roles--though lacking in depth and development.
Amanda Seyfried is as cute as pie and charming but gave a much more powerful performance as the young call girl in Cloe while Sharon Stone is surprisingly good as Linda's repressed, bitter and cold mother.
I say, skip it, and see the marvelously well done Boogie Nights or Wonderland instead.

The film cleverly portrays two versions of her story leaving the viewer to make up their mind which parts to believe – it is all told from Lovelace`s viewpoint and the narrative is sympathetic towards her regardless; that she was abused by her husband and exploited to an extent by the porn industry of the time is not in doubt, but the narrative leaves out her exploitation by the anti-pornography movement and her participation in films before the infamous “Deep Throat” that made her name.
Sayfried is excellent in the lead role, as is Sarsgaard as her sleazy husband; the film is well-cast and it captures the seedy, ambiguously darker nature of the porn industry of the period.
A good, if not great film; there is only one extra on the DVD – a 13 minute “making of” documentary that doesn`t add much to the film.
It does have subtitles in English, though you may have to adjust your screen settings to see them properly.
theme. Impossible to take your eyes off of it if you can stand the way Linda was treated by the swine who controlled her. Knew she had it difficult in her life but never imagined this. If you can stand the way she was treated and traded then I can only highly
recommend this offering. Well worth the asking price.
