WOWExclusive: Hugh Hefner Talks Sexual Revolution & the Founding of Playboy for “Inside Deep throat”

By James St. James on September 28, 2017 5:46 pm

In 2003, World of Wonder sat down with the late Hugh Hefner to talk about the beginnings of the sexual revolution in America, how he started Playboy as a response to the repression of the times, and his first exposure to hardcore pornography…

…And that’s just the first three minutes of this free-wheeling and far-reaching conversation!

Other topics include: The Playboy Philosophy, fighting government censorship, stag films of the ’20s and ’30s, The Kinsey Report, when pubic hair could finally be shown in Playboy, and a really funny Talulah Bankhead anecdote…

Watch below:

In addition to the Hefner interview above, Inside Deep Throat features scenes from the film, news of the time and interviews, both from archive and purpose-made, with director Gerard Damiano, actor Harry Reems, actress Linda Lovelace, Gore Vidal, Larry Flynt, John Waters, Camille Paglia, Dr Ruth, Annie Sprinkle, Erica Jong, Mafia money collectors, and other people involved or just commenting on the film. Much of the material was compiled from approximately 800 hours of interview and archive footage collected by the filmmakers.

It’s a fascinating documentary about a fascinating time in pop culture, and if you still have a dvd player, you can get a copy here.
