:49:00
of the obscenity law
of the United States,

:49:02
it was also
a highly organized
crime enterprise,

:49:08
(Kelly)
I didn't know

:49:09
who the Peraino gang was
at that time,

:49:12
But I soon found out
when I started investigating

:49:14
that they were heavyweights
out of New York,

:49:17
They were part of
the Colombo family operation

:49:20
who had moved
to Fort Lauderdale area,

:49:25
l haven't seen them
since l--l left.

:49:33
And l want to make sure
l--l don't get a phone call

:49:37
or get a knock on the door
that they want to talk to me.

:49:39
Because l've been
away from them for 30 years.

:49:43
And l--l--l'd like it
to be that way.

:49:46
(Terry)
This is-- this is shit
as far as l'm concerned.

:49:49
Excuse my language
but l can't stand it.

:49:52
He can tell you things,
your hair would
stand up on your heads.

:49:55
l didn't mention
any of those things,
Terry.

:49:57
what?
l didn't mention any of them.

:49:59
l don't-- l don't
want you to.

:50:00
l didn't.
:50:01
we haven't heard
in 32 years.

:50:03
Thank God.
:50:05
So, how do you know?
:50:06
l don't know
if they're living.

:50:09
They could be dead,
Terry.

(Hopper)
In its second year of release,

:50:17
Deep Throat was still
number 1 1 on the charts,

:50:20
It's a dirty movie,
:50:22
Look, try to look at it
as a satire of
contemporary sexual mores

:50:26
with lots of
redeeming social values,

:50:30
(Hopper)
Porn chic was all the rage,

:50:32
Films like Damiano's
The Devil in Miss Jones

:50:34
and Behind the Green Door
:50:36
followed on the heels
of Deep Throat's
unprecedented success,

:50:40
giving Hollywood films
a run for their money,

:50:43
(Peter Bart)
The studios were in shambles
in the early '70s,

:50:47
There's this movie out there,
everyone's going to see it.

:50:49
How does that affect you
and the pictures
you should be making?

:50:53
(Lovelace)
I've been the first one
to go down the path,

:50:55
I'd like to see, uh,
legitimate films

:50:58
and so-called
pornographic films
merge together,
