Inside Deep Throat Directors' Journal

WEDNESDAY JULY 28 2003

FLORIDA - In the afternoon, we did the legendary Count Sepy, whose house was used as a location for shooting the original film.� We arrived, DP Teo Maniaci already rolling as he came out to greet us in black leather shorts. He had designed and built his house in Coral Gables to resemble a bull. He points at the roof line as if it's self-explanatory, but we can't really tell if entering the front door we are entering through the tail or the horns. It felt a little of both.

Inside, the house was a sensurround aphrodisiac crammed with erotic primitive art, much of it from Borneo.� Overlooking the vast living room was a loft with the prow of a Viking boat that served as a bed,�and in which the count claimed to have been deep-throated by Linda Lovelace. Someone later referred to the boat as a canoe, but you refer to the count's prow as his canoe at your peril.

He took us to the wine cellar where the infamous glass dildo and Coca-Cola sequence was filmed (you'll have to watch the original film if you want to know anymore), and regaled us with stories about orgies in the '60s.� Just then, a pair of unbelievably and barely clad nubile babes arrived in an open-topped sports car to go "swimming." Time for us to go.
