Deep Throat

Originally posted by NotFromHere
“Deep Throat,” the infamous 1972 adult film that led to a government crackdown on pornography, is being re-released in theaters as a new generation of lawmakers wages a renewed assault on smut, trade paper Daily Variety reported in its Tuesday edition.
The movie, which was banned at the time in 23 states, coincides with the premiere of the documentary “Inside Deep Throat,” which hits theaters in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Boston Friday.
The original film, which was made in six days for $25,000 and has grossed over $600 million, will not be ready until at least Feb. 18.
“Deep Throat” popularized a form of sexual pleasure previously considered taboo. But the Nixon administration was not amused, sending in the FBI to close down screenings, and taking legal action against the film’s director, Jerry Damiano, and stars.
I've never seen this movie. Is it any good?
