:15:09
(Mailer)
There was something exciting
about it,
:15:11
lt--it lived in some,
uh, mid-world
:15:14
between crime and art
:15:17
and it was adventurous,
:15:25
(True)
Young people today
would be in it for the money
:15:28
whereas in the old days,
it was for the rebellion.
:15:34
(Craven)
Frankly, everybody
in one way or another
:15:37
was connected to that business
:15:38
because psychologically,
socially, it was happening.
:15:42
(Harry Reems)
You know, it was part
of a social movement
:15:44
at the time,
:15:45
Anybody who took chances
:15:47
in breaking the social mores
of the time,
:15:49
was considered a hero.
:15:53
(Damiano)
I believed in it,
:15:54
l believed that it was
about time to say
:15:57
that sex
is a beautiful thing,
:15:59
the human body is
a beautiful thing,
:16:00
and you really
shouldn't be ashamed of it.
:16:03
(Hopper)
Securing financial backing
from partners
:16:05
with underworld connections,
:16:06
Damiano raised
enough money to shoot
a hardcore sex feature,
:16:10
It was going to be called
The Doctor Makes a House Call.
:16:13
Then Damiano met his muse,
:16:15
Linda Lovelace,
and everything changed,
:16:25
To me, l always looked at her
as the girl next door.
:16:36
(Hopper)
Before she became world-famous
as Linda Lovelace,
:16:39
Linda Boreman
dreamt of opening
a clothing boutique
:16:42
until she met Chuck Traynor,
:16:47
(Patsy Carroll)
I guess he was an escape
for her,
:16:51
She was not comfortable
living in her parents' home.
:16:54
And he took her away
from that.
