It was a bombshell that titillated and provoked the American imagination
at the time of its release. Now, the 70s cult classic Debbie Does
Dallas gets its due in DEBBIE DOES DALLAS: UNCOVERED, a fascinating
peek at the turbulent lives and times surrounding the world’s most
famous porn flick. Featuring interviews with the original cast,
as well as producers, directors, and other leading lights of the
porn world, DEBBIE DOES DALLAS: UNCOVERED offers rare and deeply
personal insights into the dark secrets of the adult entertainment
industry—including the drugs, the exploitation and the prurient
thrill of having sex in front of a camera. The film also takes a
smart, fresh look at the intense scrutiny and outrage that Debbie
Does Dallas provoked, from a lawsuit filed by the Dallas Cowboys
cheerleaders to the FBI’s investigation of the film’s Mafia funders.
And with help from the few people who knew her in the porn world,
filmmaker Francis Hanly probes the 25-year-old mystery of star Bambi
Woods, the small-town girl who played "Debbie" and then
mysteriously disappeared, never to grace the screen again. Neither
dismissive nor uncritical of pornography, DEBBIE DOES DALLAS: UNCOVERED
audaciously ventures into tawdry territory with chutzpah and humor,
turning an artless but groundbreaking film into a fascinating discussion
of sex and culture. |
