Anyone But My Husband

I recall seeing this film on Times Square at the time of its release and being quite disappointed because the money shot was missing! It seems that in the manner of age-old grind houses and drive-in theaters (celebrated in a different way in the nostalgic Cinema Paradiso) the projectionist had snipped for private use the key scene of C.J. Laing performing a deep throat maneuver on Tony (The Hook) Perez in a hot tub. A decade later I was able to view the film intact on VHS and see the missing footage, which certainly made C.J. a legend with fans back in the heady days of porno chic (pun intended). At any rate, this film is way above average, with an interesting, if far-fetched story line, and some good acting, notably by porn vets Eric Edwards and R. Bolla. I never knew till consulting IMDb that this film was directed by Roberta Findlay (using a male pseudonym) – a surprise since I interviewed her much later about her latter-day efforts directing horror films and would have asked her about this one had I known.
