With the release of Deep Throat, 1972 marked the year Bible thumpers and porn freaks ate popcorn and dug porn without shame. Deep Throat’s rumored mob ties, the infamous Linda Lovelace, and a $600 million gross would change the world forever. And what’s it all about?
Poor Linda Lovelace, she isn’t enjoying sex as much as she’d like. So, her room-mate throws an orgy for her, but even this doesn’t get Linda off. Next, Linda’s friend talks her into seeing a sex therapist, Doctor Young, played by Harry Reems. He examines her and discovers that her clitoris is in her throat, deep in her throat. Dr. Young teaches her the art of deep throat to stimulate her clitoris. This gets her bells ringing. Doctor Young enlists her talents as his outcall sex therapist and we follow her adventures until finally she finds her true love… a really hung guy who can ring her bells and untangle her tingler.
Three decades later, Deep Throat remains the most profitable film ever made and a cultural turning point in American history. Filmed in 1972.
