He was lighting director for the film, but when the original actor for the part didn't work out Reems was substituted, the rest is history.  |  IP: Logged Gary Meyer Film Handler Posts: 20 From: Berkeley, CA/ USA Registered: Dec 2004 posted 03-21-2013 03:53 PM                        Read more here http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/03/21/entertainment-us-deepthroat-harryreems-idUSBRE92K0HP20130321 or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Reems  |  IP: Logged Martin McCaffery Film God Posts: 2481 From: Montgomery, AL Registered: Jun 99 posted 03-21-2013 10:05 PM                        Harry Reems was the only one to take a criminal hit for Deep Throat.  |  IP: Logged
