Why is there a television movie being made about Linda Lovelace?
Deep Throat is a 1972 American pornographic film written and directed by Gerard Damiano (listed in the credits as “Jerry Gerard”) and starring Linda Lovelace (the pseudonym of Linda Susan Boreman). One of the first pornographic films to feature a plot, character development and relatively high production standards, Deep Throat earned mainstream attention and launched the “porn chic” trend despite the film’s being banned in some regions and the subject of obscenity trials. A sexually frustrated woman (Linda Lovelace, credited as playing “herself”) asks her friend Helen (played by Dolly Sharp) for advice on how to achieve an orgasm. After a sex party provides no help, Helen recommends that Linda visit a doctor (Harry Reems). The doctor discovers that Linda’s clitoris is located in her throat. She then goes on to work as a therapist for the doctor and performs a particular technique of oral sex – thereafter known as “deep throat” – on various men, until she finds the one to marry. Meanwhi
