It was in that rare moment when pornography left the quarter machines and went to the late night cinemas. Deep Throat was not the first, but received a mass of notoriety.
Truth to tell, there was a charm to having a plot line to these things.
Boy that film caused quite a stir when first released. I remember it well.

Hi David
Good to see your Smilin Face
Yes it was the movie that took porn mainstream onto the streets from the alleys as it where. I knew people who would never dare think of watching a Porno movie that couldn't get to a big city quick enough to see Deep Throat.
It also set the standard for future films to rip off current regular movie titles and TV Shows where parodied as well. A little creativity with your jollies made porn much more palatable.
Harry Reems & John Holmes became stars and some people got very rich from them
Time seems to fly by and people from the era are coming into old age.

Not to confuse this gentlemen with that kind of entertainment but one of the worlds biggest stars and a Hockey Hero & Legend just turned 65. Bobby Orr, perhaps and arguably so imho the Greatest Hockey Player ever...65, a senior citizen. Where has the time gone.
