...Bunuel, of Antonioni and claustrophobic chamber works by Bergman. But the movie's greatest debt is not to the preceding era's prestigious portraits of European decadence but to the laws of the universe--the ways of the world--as the porno movie sees them. Ferreri's is a porn epic in the grand manner, a mordant, chilling, hilarious dirty movie that, for sheer audacious lubricity, out-tangoes "Last Tango in Paris" and almost gives the devilish Miss Jones a run for her money...

Ferreri has set out with a fierce will to challenge audience sensibility, and his Rabelaisian romp establishes new levels of rauchy foul taste in art house--as distinct from 42nd Street--porn movie fare. In manner and matter, Ferreri is working on a level that the makers of "Deep Throat" could not --and would not--aspire to, but his movie's lifelines are decidedly pornographic...

...that careful study and even new test cases are needed before the effects of the decision will become fully clear, the impact seemed all too obvious to some sellers of hard-core pornography-against whom the decision was specifically aimed. In New York, Washington, Los Angeles and other cities, "porn shop" operators almost immediately yanked some of their more blatantly sexual material off shelves and display cases. In addition, New York police learned that operators of live sex shows planned to require performers to wear G strings, and that many "adult" movie-house owners were about to make a quick...

...doodley-squat!" An I now to deny this statement, along with my past, just because my Creator had other plans? No. I am free to choose my own course, and I've decided to rededicate myself to failure. I'm not going to continue writing sci-fi trash for porn magazines.
