Deep Throat – shiny and new again
VCX’s new release of the greatest porn classic ever made, the movie that catapulted porn to a brief but real respectability, brings up something that has nagged at me for years, ever since I saw Deep Throat for the first time. In spite of Linda Lovelace’s startling ability, I was always much more interested in Carol Connors as the nurse.

I don’t know why – it wasn’t the nurse uniform or anything, and it’s not like she was a much more interesting performer than Linda Lovelace, but I always thought she was hotter. Linda Lovelace is no ball of fire, looks-wise – Sasha Grey in the more recent adaptation is orders of magnitude sexier as the world’s most orgasmic oralist – but Carol wasn’t especially spectacular either, even for the times.
There was just something riper about her. Maybe it was that there weren’t all that much in the way of conclusive sex scenes – she never gave it all the way up, and the laws of supply and demand came into play. Whatever it was, Carol Connors whas the girl I walked away from Deep Throat with the strongest memory of.
