Amanda Seyfried credited as playing...
Linda
- Linda: You know I spent exactly seventeen days in the pornography industry and somehow these seventeen days are suppose to define who I am for the rest of my life, but I hope that people can see me for who I really am. I mean Linda Lovelace was a fictitious character. My name is Linda Marchiano. I can finally be myself. I'm a mother and a wife and that is where I found my joy.
- Linda: I had the misfortune of meeting Chuck Traynor, but it didn't start out like you're describing. He was a gentleman when I first met him. He was always opening doors for me and lighting my cigarettes and he was very charming when he wanted to be... and I was young, you know, I was twenty-one when I went to live with him... and it wasn't until after that, that things just started to change. He started talking about different sexual things, things that I had never heard of before, things that I - I couldn't imagine, you know? I didn't want to. I was raised... I was raised to obey my husband, to please him for better or for worse... so that's what I did.
- Chuck: You lost us a movie deal tonight. Just sittin' up on stage, taking bows like - Princess "Fuckin'" Grace.
- Linda: I'm sorry, Chuck.
- Chuck: Fifty, maybe a hundred thousand.
- Linda: To do another fuck film?
- Chuck: No, Linda, it's Shakespeare. I told them you do a great English accent, particularly with a cock down your throat.
- Chuck: Come on.
- Linda: I don't want to.
- Chuck: You know, maybe that's because you're not any good at it. Come on, you're going to love it.
- Linda: Really?
- Chuck: Yeah.
- Linda: I'll like it? Choking myself?
- Chuck: I could teach you. Remember how I got you to quit smoking?
- Linda: Yeah. You gonna hypnotize me?
- Chuck: Its the same mind-body control technique. Yeah? Outta sight! Ah! Okay, your mind has control. Come on. A little more. There you go. Take it in. That's right. Don't forget to breathe.
- Harry Reems: Linda? Harry. We're getting it on in the next scene.
- Linda: Oh! Hey, its nice to meet you. I thought your name was Dick?
- Harry Reems: My stage name used to be Dick Long. But, it sounded kinda obvious, so, you know.
- Linda: Yeah. I agree.
- Harry Reems: It's a great business, isn't it? Anyway, I just thought I'd come by and introduce myself before we started going at it.
- Thomas - Photographer: I don't think for the movie poster we can be so - anatomical.
- Linda: I just don't want to disappoint anybody.
- Thomas - Photographer: Tell me about the role you're playing.
- Linda: A girl who's clit...
- Thomas - Photographer: I know all that.
- Linda: Okay.
- Thomas - Photographer: Tell me about the person - you're playing.
- Linda: Well, at first I'm - closed up - like a flower bud.
- Thomas - Photographer: Yeah?
- Linda: And - and then, gradually, the petals start to - to open. And - and then, I finally learn about about myself. And I learn - how to - to enjoy sex.
- Thomas - Photographer: Beautiful.
- Linda: And I feel free.
- Harry Reems: You okay?
- Linda: I'm a little nervous. I never had lines to talk before.
- Harry Reems: We got the best job in the world. We just tune everybody out and live in the moment, like we're the only two people on the planet.
- Linda: Tune everybody out. Live in the moment.
- Harry Reems: Exactly. You're gonna do great. And I can't wait to get it on.
- Hugh Hefner: I think you can be a star. I don't mean just an adult movie star. I mean - a real star.
- Linda: Oh, I wish I could believe that.
- Hugh Hefner: Linda!
- Chuck: That's what I call a welcoming committee. Right on.
- Hugh Hefner: Linda.
- Linda: Hi, Mr. Hefner.
- Hugh Hefner: Hef, please. Welcome to your party.
- [to Chuck]
- Hugh Hefner: How about I trade you two blondes for a brunette?
- Chuck: Yeah!
- Lie Detector Operator: Just answer yes or no. Is your name Linda Lovelace?
- Linda: Can we start with an easier question?
- Feminist Journalist: How does it feel to be the poster girl for the Sexual Revolution?
- Linda: It's just a goof. To me it's - it's a movie. Like any other movie, only it has so many better things in it.
- Feminist Journalist: Like what?
- Linda: Like me.
