Synopsis
A raucous and revealing oral history of the birth of the adult film industry, The Other Hollywood peels back the candy coating to let the true story be told - by the stars, movie makers, and other industry players who lived it. And what a story it is: Through hundreds of original interviews, contemporary newspaper accounts, police reports, court testimony, and more, Legs McNeil and coauthors Jennifer Osborne and Peter Pavia trace today's billion-dollar industry from its makeshift, mob-connected origins to the Internet age. Along the way we encounter porn stars such as Linda Lovelace, John Holmes, Traci Lords, and Savannah - along with countless mainstream stars, politicians, FBI agents, and more. Epic, hilarious, and moving, The Other Hollywood contributes to the porn industry the one thing missing in all previous accounts: a vivid, tragicomic, irresistible humanity., In this uncensored history of the porn film industry, acclaimed underworld chronicler Legs McNeil pulls back the grimy satin sheets on one of the most astounding success stories in the history of American business., As a recent New York Times Magazine cover story pointed out to average Americans, the adult film industry is a $10 billion-per-year business. It has infiltrated the American mainstream, with its stars (such as ReganBooks author Jenna Jameson) showing up as mainstream TV hosts, making guest appearances in Hollywood feature films, and gracing the CD covers--and arms--of rock stars and Hollywood actors alike. But what most people don't know is how the porn industry got started--with a $22,000 Mafia investment in a film called Deep Throat--or how it mushroomed over the next quarter-century despite efforts by politicians, the FBI, and others to bring it down. The Other Hollywood tells that story, through hundreds of interviews by the people who lived through it. In the riveting oral-history format that made his first book, Please Kill Me, one of the most memorable accounts of 1970s underground culture, Legs McNeil now pulls back the grimy satin sheets on one of the most astounding success stories in the history of American business. Careening back and forth between two groups--the actresses, directors, and others who made the films and the shady underworld figures who financed them--The Other Hollywood offers scores of never-before-told stories, all in the voices of those who lived them: *The true story of Linda Lovelace and husband Chuck Traynor, drawn from the last interviews with them before their recent deaths--including how Lovelace was used first by the porn industry, then by anti-porn activists *The first male porn star, John Holmes, and the Wonderland Avenue murders he set up *The demise of Savannah, the ur-porn star of the 1990s, who ended up a coked-out suicide *The truth about the feud between Ginger Lynn and Traci Lords *The story of the decades-long fight between the mob and the feds over porn--including the untold story of MIPORN, the very first undercover op in the history of the FBI *The rise of the porn studio system with Vivid, Wicked, and others--and of today's megaporn moguls, like Jill Kelly and Jenna Jameson Witty, always compelling, and ultimately moving, The Other Hollywood is a Hollywood Babylon for today., A raucous and revealing oral history of the birth of the adult film industry, The Other Hollywood peels back the candy coating to let the true story be told -- by the stars, movie makers, and other industry players who lived it. And what a story it is: Through hundreds of original interviews, contemporary newspaper accounts, police reports, court testimony, and more, Legs McNeil and coauthors Jennifer Osborne and Peter Pavia trace today's billion-dollar industry from its makeshift, mob-connected origins to the Internet age. Along the way we encounter porn stars such as Linda Lovelace, John Holmes, Traci Lords, and Savannah -- along with countless mainstream stars, politicians, FBI agents, and more.

Esta recopilación de hechos los hará enfrentarse a personajes anónimos, orgías y drogas en habitaciones de moteles, desesperados, gente damnificada por este trabajo, vidas en ruina y, a las implicaciones que la mafia tiene en este negocio. Un relato oral e impactante de mucha gente que participa de esta industria que lo llevará por las prácticas más escalofriantes de este género, que destruyen el mito de lo erótico de este ambiente y sus protagonistas para mostrar la realidad de la abundancia de sexo y violencia en que viven.
