See Amanda Seyfried As A Porn Star

Early images from LOVELACE, the story of DEEP THROAT star Linda Lovelace.

The New York Times ran an interesting article about Lovelace, the Amanda Seyfried-starring Linda Lovelace biopic. The Deep Throat star's journey was very troubled - abused, she claims she was forced into pornography by her husband Chuck Traynor (played by Peter Sarsgaard in the film); later she became an anti-porn activist before doing one final spread prior to her death. 

Lovelace is one of two competing biopics; the other, Inferno, stars Malin Akerman. The producers of Lovelace sort of put that one down, saying it's too dark and that their movie has some levity in it, but Linda's story is a dark, dark one. I'm actually curious how these films will stack up against each other, and how they'll deal with some of the more sordid aspects of the story - as well as getting across the strange and massive impact Deep Throat had on the culture. Jackie Onassis went to see it!
