(2013) Lovelace.
DRAMA.
It's like watching a very poor adaption of an actual book, in this case I suspect a book written by Linda Lovelace called "Ordeal"- it's like the makers read her biography and then go 'Hey, I could make some money by making a movie out of this , and at the same time avoid paying royalties by not making it accurate' It stars Amanda Seyfried as the title character after the studio dropped Linda Lohan who was initially offered the role to play the actress starring in "Deep Throat", the first adult film playing on theatres(as I've remembered) except that the makers failed to make a point of it. It said instead that she was the first female person in film to ever show her performing a 'blow job', except that any actress who goes into porn can do exactly the same thing. Peter Sarsgaard stars as the abusive boyfriend and Sharon Stone stars as the unrecognizable mother. And I have no doubt in my mind that the book that this film may be based on is going to be better.
2 out of 4 stars.
