This focuses in on the early days of the '70s and how those who made the films were soon under the control of the mafia. I love reading about the mob and had never read about their connection to porn films from this era although I'd known they were involved. Deep Throat for example made the mob hundreds of millions of dollars. Even though there is a ton of sex in this, not very erotic. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/143331?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
