cavanami Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 "Deep Throat" star Harry Reems dies at 65 http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-207_162-57575458/deep-throat-star-harry-reems-dies-at-65/ Harry Reems, star of the 1972 porn film crossover hit "Deep Throat," has died at age 65. Reems, who was born Herbert Streicher, died Tuesday afternoon at the veterans' hospital in Salt Lake City. Reems' wife confirmed his death Wednesday. The cause of death hasn't been determined, but Reems was suffering from multiple medical issues, including pancreatic cancer. Reems began appearing in pornographic films in the early 1970s, reaching national fame when "Deep Throat" premiered in the summer of 1972. He was quoted to say, "I loved sex. I was very promiscuous. And I loved acting."... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 All the money he must have made ... and he ended up in a VA hospital? At least he seems to have got his act together before the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobbledonk Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 All the money he must have made ... and he ended up in a VA hospital? At least he seems to have got his act together before the end. I dont know if they really made that much money - I recall reading a Penthouse piece back in the 80s which claimed that the women were the most highly paid, even though they had very short careers - the industry revolved around fresh faces and genitalia (the Japanese AV industry today is much the same). The brightest women soon realised that they were better off putting the money toward an education than up their noses - most of the guys dont seem to have thought that far ahead. The big difference between LA in the 80s and Japan today is that a career as an AV actress - even in hardcore movies - doesnt seem to ruin their chances of doing something else later - I dont have any firm proof of that, but I'm prepared to put in as much research as it takes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 It is amazing how attractive some of the Japanese porn gals are, considering the crap they do (e.g. bukake). But Japanese women are delightfully goofy, more so than Thais. I remember a TV show that stopped young women on the street and offered to pay them to flash their boobs. Many of them did! Try that in LOS and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainsdrifter Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 With the amount of free porn available these days on the internet, actors make very little in the way of real money. 20-30 years ago it was the actresses that made the higher salaries. At least Harry survived the Vietnam war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Don't think he set foot in RVN. "Reems served briefly in the United States Marine Corps, receiving an honorable discharge following hardship leave," Wikipedia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobbledonk Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 Boris Berezovsky had it all - a Russian billionaire with friends in high places, but it all went sour from the day he clashed with old chum Vladimir. From rooster to feather duster, so it comes to us all. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/world/uk-police-probe-death-of-kremlin-critic-boris-berezovsky/story-e6frg6so-1226604273830 Boris, old mate, you could have spent that money flying teams of hookers from one end of Russia to the other - instead, you felt the need to tell the world what we already knew, and to give your money to scumbag lawyers. A sad end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainsdrifter Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 He ran out of money, from being a billionaire to losing a multi-billion dollar lawsuit. Very sad indeed. Some are saying he was assassinated by Vladimir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
