It also focuses on the life of its star –real name Linda Boreman – examining issues of exploitation and violence as she is cruelly manipulated by her husband and manager, Chuck Traynor.

Amanda Seyfried stars in the title role, while Peter Sarsgaard plays Traynor. Tom Brook talks with the stars of Lovelace about the phenomenon of Deep Throat and the experience of filming the difficult domestic violence scenes.
