Nora Louise Kuzma a.k.a. Traci Lords was the biggest, hottest, sexiest porn star and and most singularly searing X-rated carnal fixation of Youngman McBeardo’s put-upon puberty years.

It was unbelievably cool, then, when both The Object of Affection and The Objectional Erection turned out to have been born right about the exact same time.

Of course, the scandal of Traci Lords performing in hardcore porn films when she should have been in high-school nearly capsized the entire adult-entertainment industry, but it created a Legend of Lust to endure eternally for the (under)ages.

X-Rated Ambition: The Traci Lords Story, a new UK documentary available from Shocking Videos exposes the dirty truth about Traci (McBeardo’s is self-explanatory). Click for the box cover for the E-cup-normous, up-turned scoops.

Many people are familiar with the story of Bob Chinn without being aware of the fact due to Burt Reynolds’s Oscar-nominated performance as Jack Horner in Boogie Nights, as the character was loosely based on Chinn. Chinn began making adult movies in the early 1970s and retired in the late 1980s, only to return for a brief period in the late 1990s and early 2000s. He is best known for the Johnny Wadd films he made with the legendary performer John Holmes. In the enormously popular series, Holmes portrays a private detective who solves crimes in between servicing women with his mighty meat sword. On September 23, 2008, VCX released the original Johnny Wadd, taken from a pristine print, for the first time on DVD. Recently Mr. Chinn took some time out to discuss his movies and life with Mr Skin’s C.G. Hilliard.

Porn purists may have scoffed but, like it or not, filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson’s Boogie Nights is Hollywood’s definitive statement of the shadow industry of X-rated cinema throughout the 1970s and early ’80s. It opened in theaters to great critical acclaim on this date in 1997.

Boogie Nights flashily chronicles the rise-and-more-rises of Dirk Diggler (Mark Wahlberg), a naturally gifted cocksman (loosely inspired by legendary loin-wielder John Holmes) who makes it big (and often) in the jizz-biz during the waning days of theatrically-released sex films, just on the cusp of home video.

Burt Reynolds portrays a disco-riffic hardcore director, while Heather Graham and Julianne Moore are indisputably awesome as the frequently naked female talent.

Also look for real-life erotic stars Nina Hartley, Skye Blue, and Summer Cummings in sexy supporting roles.
