We had absolutely no idea what this film might incur, purely attracted by the name and its appearance in a top 25 controversial films list.When we put it on, we were greeted by a long introduction showing a woman driving along the road, with some awful 70's music behind it. We thought it would be a funny, stupid film, at this point.
But then the first scene came along. The main character, Linda, walked into her mother's house to see her with her legs spread on a worktop and a man's head down there, you know, doing what you do... This scene went on for a long while, with long closeups, and some more terrible (but hilariously funny) music. We realised that we were in fact watching a glorified porno, which turns out to be one of the first porn films to have a plot line. The controversy obviously is for its' pornographic content and how it was released.
We didn't watch the film for long. The scene where Linda goes to the doctor to ask about why she doesn't orgasm is fantastic though. He pinpoints the problem instantly and tells her that her clit is in her throat. Subsequently, he suggests deepthroat, she tells him that she chokes whenever she tries, he then explains how to do it ("It's easy really - just regulate your breathing with the motion of your mouth" - with hand demonstration) and she proceeds to practise on him. The 'doctor' pulls some priceless facial expressions, and finally she orgasms, signified by the camera flicking between the blowjob, bells ringing, a rocket firing up, and such. Genius!
Nonetheless, Marc and I felt a little odd watching a porn film together, and we stopped it soon after this scene.
