Very good episode. You should check out Hyapatia Lee’s YouTube channel. In her memorial to Jim South,, Hyapatia discusses Traci. Very interesting.
Need that interview with Stuart Dell. He did that exercise tape Warm Up with Traci in 1990, so he was around after the debacle.
Episode 11’s central propositions of mainstream movie stars secretly aspiring to be porn stars, and the exploration of Traci Lord’s comparative failure in mainstream Hollywood (and the inevitability of all porn star failure in mainstream), are fascinating and persuasive.
