6.3 2022 Movie Documentary History TV Movie

Deep Throat, a pornographic film directed by Gerard Damiano, a film-loving hairdresser, and starring Linda Lovelace, a shy girl manipulated by a controlling husband, was released in 1972 and divided audiences, who began to talk openly about sex, desire and female pleasure; but also about violence and abuse; and about pornography, until then an almost clandestine industry, as a revolutionary cultural phenomenon.

When Annie Sprinkle has an orgasm with her lover in the hot tub, she reflects upon the incredibly diverse aspects of the orgasm experience. She then introduces twenty-six “orgasm experts” who have, over the years, taught her some key piece of knowledge about orgasm—and now she wants to share that knowledge with you. The interviews of the orgasm experts are inter-cut and layered with a lively collage of archival film clips, sexual imagery, and special effects.

In 1972, a seemingly typical shoestring budget pornographic film was made in a Florida hotel: "Deep Throat," starring Linda Lovelace. This film would surpass the wildest expectation of everyone involved to become one of the most successful independent films of all time. It caught the public imagination which met the spirit of the times, even as the self-appointed guardians of public morality struggled to suppress it, and created, for a brief moment, a possible future where sexuality in film had a bold artistic potential. This film covers the story of the making of this controversial film, its stunning success, its hysterical opposition along with its dark side of mob influence and allegations of the on set mistreatment of the film's star.
