1:20:01
Deep Throat forged
the sexual revolution

1:20:06
for good or bad,
1:20:08
(Waters)
It led to the porno business,

1:20:09
Linda Lovelace turned it,
and Deep Throat turned it,
into an industry,

1:20:14
And like it or hate it,
1:20:15
that's what she's gonna be
remembered for, forever.

1:20:20
(Bart)
Porn really does have
a yucky feel to it today,

1:20:25
Part of it, I think,
that was lost is this,
a certain innocence,

1:20:28
For that brief moment,
porn was part of

1:20:31
discovery, curiosity,
1:20:34
change.
1:20:36
Today it's different.
1:20:39
(Jong)
What happened

1:20:40
was that a very cynical
pornography industry

1:20:43
came in on the heels
of the First Amendment

1:20:46
and began coining money
hand over fist.

1:20:51
(Mailer)
So, it changed the nature
of--of pornographic sex,

1:20:54
from art to money,
1:20:58
Money is not interested in
the little alleys

1:21:01
of endeavor--
of artistic endeavor.

1:21:04
It wants the main highway,
1:21:11
[cars honking]
1:21:12
(Cavett)
It's a really dramatic fact

1:21:14
that we have gone
from people staring up
at a marquee

1:21:17
and thinking
''What can deep throat mean?

1:21:19
Surely not
what I'm thinking''

1:21:21
to kids who don't
consider it sex.

1:21:33
(Charles Keating)
They perverted it
instead of improving it,

1:21:38
They took a beautiful thing
that God gave mankind,

1:21:40
and they perverted it.
And the results are obvious.

1:21:43
All you have to do
is look around.

1:21:51
(Hopper)
Deep Throat's
legacy goes beyond

1:21:54
the sexually saturated culture
that surrounds us today

1:21:57
and reaches back to
the beginnings
of a culture war
