My Andrea True Connection

I just got a call from Andrea True. She was calling from Florida where she had just seen Inside Deep Throat. "I'm calling from my car, parked in front of my house, with the air conditioning on." She'd been to the 5PM matinee in Ft. Lauderdale. She said the theatre was quite busy. "It was an elderly crowd, white-headed retirees. They were older than me, most of them in their sixties." She went on to say how much she loved the film.

I asked if anyone recognized her. "Are you kidding? I had my hair up in a ponytail and a big pair of sunglasses on." What a star!

I asked what she liked about the film. "It's a real commentary on the times, the '70s. It captured something about the '70s that I think people have forgotten. By the way, Georgina Spelvin and Herb (Harry Reems) looked fabulous."

Was there anything that surprised her about the movie? "I was hurt by the girls at the AVN convention. It was shocking to me that they didn't know anything about the history of their craft."

We chatted for awhile, and she reminded me that if there are any great grandmother parts [Ed. note: not great-grandmother parts] in any upcoming films we are doing that we better consider her. I assured her we would. I was about to hang up when she suggested that perhaps we should set up a website where people could access the entirety of the interviews we've conducted. "People spend a lot of time on those computers, people wanna be entertained. Charge people, charge 'em five bucks. And advertise it on those pornsites." Hmmm, great idea Andrea. Got any more, more more?
