User reviews Review. Top review. Andy Bellin wrote the screenplay for this biopic-type film directed by both Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman which relates the life of Linda Lovelace, known as the queen of adult porn for her controversial role in the film DEEP THROAT and the writer of the confessional book ORDEAL which gave the public the 'real story' behind the girl who was Lovelace before she died in - the girl who is used and abused by the porn industry at the behest of her coercive husband, before taking control of her life.
And the manner in which the two views on the same girl are interconnected in the film is the strong point of the movie: the technique of show 'reality' while simultaneously depicting 'fiction' works well. There are real taped interviews and comments by Johnny Carson, Bob Hope and Walter Cronkite which enhance the credibility. The film closes with an interview after Lovelace has revealed her past in her best selling book ORDEAL - and at that point the film slides down the hill of Hallmark type feel good.
The story of Linda Lovelace, who is used and abused by the porn industry at the behest of her coercive husband before taking control of her life. This fiction debut from documentarian Denes Nagy expertly captures the desperate hunger and cold of a war with no winners. The British director's grim and controversial film follows a monstrous Northerner on a journey through decaying London.
This documentary doesn't have much in the way of new insights, but the stunning archival footage more than makes up for it. One night on the town, she crosses paths with Chuck Traynor Peter Sarsgaard a local bar and restaurant owner who sees Linda as an opportunity; he soon wins her over as a girlfriend, and not long after, the two are married. Within a couple of years, Chuck shoots a private stag film of Linda performing oral sex on a partner, and decides to show it to Gerry Damiano Hank Azaria , an up-and-coming porn director with ties to the Mafia.
Damiano is so impressed by the footage that he immediately decides to cast Linda in his new picture, the hardcore comedy Deep Throat, which becomes the single most lucrative adult film of all time and turns the young woman -- renamed Linda Lovelace -- into a household name. The film then flashes forward to six years later, when Linda authors a shocking tell-all book about what really happened when the cameras weren't rolling; she describes the sadistic abuse that she endured at the hands of Traynor and a series of increasingly futile attempts to escape from his clutches, and claims that she was coerced to appear in the movie.
