Caligula was the only porn flick my wife freely admitted to paying admission to see, back in her younger days. She and the group she was with all walked out, though... she said it was just plain bad.

As far as porn films using mainstream actors, you can't really say that since NONE of them appeared in any of the sex scenes, that was all edited together later. As for thew plot and set and clothing, hell that was the main game before the advent of videotape in porn. Not stuff like Deep throat or Debbie Does Dallas, but The Opening of Misty Beethoven, Working 8 to 4, the Autobiography of a Flea you take out the sex you have an almost decent movie. And in the late 1990's early 2000's you had stuff like Pirates, which was a Pirates of the Caribbean ripoff, but had a huge budget and decent script and now with the rise of porn parodies you have people like Will Ryder making stuff like Not The Brady Bunch XXX which if you buy the DVD can be watched with or without sex and is halfway decent. |

Since Guccione died, and all of his assets sold off, it's surprising no video was offered for sale, just slides, artwork, furniture, etc. Some of the women from PH in that movie were faves of mine, and it would be great to see some kind of decent porn movie made from all the stuff he shot, which must be somewhere.

I loved the lesbian scene most of all as I could concentrate on the two women instead of a mass orgy.

A fine but failed attempt at moving porn into the mainstream. The story isn't quite good enough to hold the attention, and the porn not quite plentiful enough to hold an erection.

Citizen Kane of porn? No, because the known version is a Frankenstein of a film. It was an Italian film, with an Italian director, Tinto Brass, shot in a melodramatic style, explicit in both sex (though originally softcore) & violence (quite hardcore, though the gore effects were amateurish), and was political commentary on fascism. Guccione shot a bunch of hardcore, took the original edit from out of Brass' hands, clumsily edited the hardcore footage in, and came out with a failure.
However, there have been a lot of recent developments with the film. A German film student, Alexander Tuschinski, has been allowed to reedit the film based on what he thinks that Brass was trying to achieve. From https://avn.com/business/articles/vi...la-765798.html: Quote:

It also appears that this Alexander Tuschinski thinks that there is a significant work in that footage, at least from what Brass shot, so maybe a Citizen Kane of softcore is forthcoming? For more on Tuschinski's vision, check out a short version of Mission:Caligula on Vimeo, and 106 pages of analysis of the film at http://www.alexander-tuschinski.de/analyses.html . |

As Not The Nine O'Clock News put it on its release... "Sir John Gielgud and Helen Mitten reacted with horror to the film Caligula today, and added there was no mention of the explicit scenes of sex and violence when they read the original paycheck."
Surely, for its impact, "Deep Throat" has to be the Citizen Kane of porno? |

Since Helen Mirren was in a couple of the sex scenes, and featured heavily in the "Imperial Bordello" sequence, me thinks the lady doth protest too much.

Would've been better if Helen Mirren and Teresa Ann Savoy had been involved in actual sex …..oral & penetration. I've of loved to seen Teresa riding a cock!
