This bio of Linda Lovelace is nothing more than a poor telling of a fairly dull story made somehow even duller.
The first thing that strikes anyone who knows anything about the back story or Linda herself will realize that LL was not a very attractive woman so picking the very cute Amanda Seyfried for the role was a bad move to begin with. LL had a major scar on her chin from a car accident, but in this movie she does not.
Seyfried is way too innocent and childlike in her acting, the real Linda was a bit rough around the edges and a pretty wild girl, I mean she had sex with dogs in a few shorts before Deep Throat, all this is left out in the film.
"When they need a 65 year old woman to do an X-rated movie and I'm 65 I'll just be ready to do it" - LL
The movie is full of factual errors and anachronisms, some of them are just so obvious it's just silly and LL story has changed so many times over the years no one knows the real truth, but I assume the abuse was real.
DT was not filmed in widescreen but is shown in the theater as if it was.
The car in the intro to DT was a blue 1970 Caddy Eldorado hardtop, not a red convertible.
