VIVID ENTERTAINMENT HONORS LEGENDARY HARRY REEMS WITH SPECIAL
PROMOTION MARCH 27 THROUGH APRIL 3.
As a tribute to the
legendary
Harry Reems, the male lead in the landmark adult
movie “
Deep Throat,”
Vivid Entertainment is giving its online customers a
free download of “
Throat: A Cautionary Tale,” the 2009
multi-award-winning Vivid feature that offers a whole new take on the porn
classic.
Customers who visit
vivid.com
and purchase any Vivid video need only click on the
“Throat” link at
the top of the home page to receive their
free copy of the film that stars Sasha Grey and was directed by Paul Thomas. The
offer is valid from Wednesday March 27th through Wednesday, April 3rd.
Jared Ruter of
Adult Video News said in his
review that “Throat: A Cautionary Tale,” is “porn noir, a dark mystery about
innocence destroyed. Swiftly paced and engrossing, it plays like a mainstream
movie. But it’s the star, Sasha Grey, who brings it to life.”
“
Throat: A Cautionary Tale,” was also the subject of a 6-part series
on
Showtime under the title “
Deeper Throat.” The
storyline tracked the trials and tribulations that Vivid founder/co-ceo
Steven Hirsch went through when he tried to get permission to
make the movie.
Reems, who co-starred with Linda Lovelace in the original “Deep Throat,” died
last Tuesday at the age of 65.
