From the late 1960s until the mid-1980s, adult entertainment films dominated the theaters along 42nd Street between 7th and 8th Avenue in New York City, earning it the nickname “The Deuce”. Throughout the week, those theaters played hardcore pornographic movies for those brave enough to walk the chaotic and disruptive street.
And the person who ran those theaters was Chelly Wilson, a Jewish Greek grandmother.
Wilson, a Holocaust survivor, became one of the most influential figures during the era, eventually producing and distributing adult films in theaters that she owned.
Bunkered in an apartment above the all-male Adonis Theatre, she regularly held court with entertainers, poker players, female lovers and more all while her grandchildren ran at her feet.
A new documentary, Queen of the Deuce by Valerie Kontakos, explores Wilson’s life from escaping Europe during World War II to becoming an unlikely influential figure at the height of the golden era of adult entertainment, with interviews from both friends and family.
“Grandma Chelly was, to us, larger than life. Going into her apartment was always an interesting experience — she was living over a pornographic movie theater,” said one grandchild in the film’s trailer. “She owns most of the porn theaters in New York — and then I’d get that right note, what does your grandmother really do? I was like ‘no, that’s the truth actually,” said another.
Wilson was one of the last people to leave Europe before the Nazi occupation in 1939. She left her two children behind, instructing a caretaker to never turn them over to anyone else, and sought a better life in New York.

And she found a different type of life on 42nd Street in the mid-1970s. The neighborhood’s provocative theaters inspired peep shows and massage parlors to open up around. Sex workers walked the streets at all hours every day. One New York Times article from 1971 claimed “40 prostitutes are arraigned” on a “normal Thursday.”
Muggings and violent crime were constant in the area too.
But when faced with an environment everyone else ran away from, Wilson set up shop above one of the theaters.
Her film career began by playing Greek movies in rented-out theaters to honor her heritage and cater to the Greek community in Manhattan. She married her second husband, Rex Wilson, a film projectionist and the two had a daughter together.
After the war ended, Wilson brought her two children other children to New York. Her connections in the film industry helped her obtain her own movie theaters and seeing how profitable pornographic film showings were, she ventured into the industry.

The public perception of adult films shifted during the “porno chic” era. Movies like Blue Movie and Deep Throat captivated audiences and critics – pushing the films from taboo to mainstream.
Wilson seized on the era’s lucrative opportunity to build a better life for herself and her family. She unapologetically embraced the envelope-pushing energy – even inviting her female lovers to live with her and her family.
Ms Kotankas, the documentary’s director, writer and producer, knew Wilson personally and said from the moment she met her, she knew she wanted to make a movie about her.
In an article for CBC, she recounted meeting Wilson and her second husband, Rex, at “11 or 12 years old” in Athens.
“I was fascinated and struck by the role reversal I saw that day. Rex had arranged to have a manicure, so there he was, sitting on our balcony getting his nails done, while his wife was holding court in the living room with my mother. They were smoking and drinking coffee, laughing about this, that or the other,” Ms Kotankas wrote.
Through interviews with Wilson’s family and close associates, Ms Kotankas tells a story about a trailblazer who wasn’t afraid to be herself.
Queen of the Deuce is available to stream on Apple TV or Amazon Prime Video.
New surveillance video shows wanted suspect limping away from crime scene
Philadelphia police share new surveillance footage Monday that shows a suspect wanted for firing down a Kensington street after being knocked off his scooter, limping away from the crime scene.
PHILADELPHIA - New surveillance footage shared by police Monday shows a shooter wanted for firing down a Kensington street after being knocked off his scooter hobbling away from the crime scene.
Investigators say the unknown suspect was riding a motorized scooter on the 300 block of East Allegheny Avenue last Thursday afternoon when he collided with a turning car.
The crash caused the suspect, described by police as a Hispanic man wearing a gray GAP hoodie and long pants, to be thrown from the scooter and tumble down the road.
The man briefly sits on the side of the road while the car he struck continues to drive away. He then hops to his feet and hobbles down the road while firing a gun.
Three people were hit by gunfire, including a 47-year-old woman who was shot in the face and a 9-year-old girl who was grazed in the head. A 45-year-old man also suffered a gunshot wound to the leg.
New video shared by police three days after the crash-turned-shooting shows the suspect limping across a nearby street as he fled the crime scene. Police believe he suffered an injury to his right leg and ankle as a result of the crash.
Anyone with information on the suspect's whereabouts is urged to contact police.

Demi seems unfazed by the nude scenes saying: “I had someone who was a great partner who I felt very safe with.
"We obviously were quite close — naked — and we also got a lot of levity in those moments at how absurd those certain situations were when laying on the tile floor.
“But ultimately. it’s just about really directing your communication and mutual trust.”
And she isn’t the only actress of a certain age still prepared to bare all in the name of their art.
The raunchy scenes featuring Liz and 28-year-old co-star Pear Chiravara appear in 22-year-old Damian’s directorial debut movie Strictly Confidential.
But Liz, who exudes body confidence by regularly posting bikini snaps of herself on social media, says people were making a lot of fuss about nothing.

“Yes, of course, people have got their knickers in a twist about it a bit,” she said.
“But actually for us it wasn’t a big deal at all, just one of the seven scenes we were shooting on that day. We didn’t have a lot of time. It was a night scene… and the minute it gets dark the mosquitoes start dive-bombing you. There was a bit of exposed flesh for the mosquitoes to get.”

Oscar winner Kate is no stranger to on-screen nudity, famously stripping off as Rose in Titanic.
But after giving birth to three children, Kate, now 48, vowed never to get naked on film again.
However she changed her mind to normalise the idea of a middle-aged gran having sex and one night stands in Mare of Easttown.
Not only did she strip off for a sex scene with Guy Pearce, she told the New York Times she refused to let director Craig Zobel edit out “a bulgy bit of belly," saying: “Don’t you dare!”
She said: “Listen, I hope that in playing Mare as a middle-aged woman, I guess that’s why people have connected with this character in the way that they have done because there are clearly no filters,”
Winslet added. “She’s a fully functioning, flawed woman with a body and a face that moves in a way that is synonymous with her age and her life and where she comes from.”
Julianne Moore

Oscar winner Julianne was 49 when she got naked in the movie Chloe about a married woman who embarks on a steamy lesbian affair.
Amanda Seyfried, then aged 24, starred opposite as call-girl Chloe, and both women had to shed their inhibitions for the intimate scenes, which Julianne admitted made her nervous. “It’s tricky stuff to do,” she said, adding: “Obviously there’s something inherently dangerous about doing a scene like that, but it was all very deliberately staged, we watched playback, we were able to adjust things.”
But in 2019, Julianne stripped off again aged 58 to star in Gloria Bell, about a free-spirited divorced mum-of-two who falls in love.
Despite first getting naked on screen in 1993’s Body of Evidence she says she never gets used to it.
"Somebody asked me, 'How do you become comfortable?' And I'm like, 'You don't. Nobody's comfortable,' she said.
Helen Hunt

Hunt was Oscar-nominated for her part as sex surrogate Cheryl in the 2012 film The Sessions.
The film was based on the story of Mark O’Brien, a poet who was paralysed from the neck down due to polio and hired a sex surrogate to lose his virginity.
The role required full frontal nudity from the then 48-year-old Hunt who said she embraced the sex scenes.
"I think I thought a couple of times before we shot the movie. I said to my boyfriend: 'I'm about to do this'. Should you be stopping me from doing this? Because this is about to happen,” she recalled.
"I said to another friend of mine, it's getting late... who cares? Maybe one of the great things about getting older is, who cares?
"To get a chance to embody a woman, particularly a woman who's not 20 years old, and celebrate that we all have bodies and everybody has a god-given right to feel pleasure. I liked being part of bringing that to life.”

Stripping off at the age of 62 was “a challenge” admitted Dame Emma, who tackled full frontal nudity for her role in Good Luck to You, Leo Grande.
Emma played Nancy, a sexually frustrated widow, who hires a sex worker in the hope of experiencing her very first orgasm.
In order to break the ice, she and her co-star, 29-year-old Irish actor Daryl McCormack, went for a walk together on Hampstead Heath to get to know each other.
But she says the demands society places on women to look a certain way meant she was still apprehensive about getting naked.
"Oh, God. Well, it’s very challenging to be nude at 62," she told the Daily Mail.
“Especially in a world where nothing has changed in the dreadful demands made on women to look a certain way.
"It’s something I’ve been thinking about writing on since I was in my 20s, and the young female actors I speak to now still suggest there’s the same thing going on, a sort of tyranny to make women lose their self-confidence.
I said to a friend of mine, it's getting late... who cares? Maybe one of the great things about getting older is, who cares?
Helen Hunt
“It was very interesting to me, because I realised that if I’m not near any mirrors and I look down at my body, it looks fine. I can see my toes and it doesn’t look horrible.
“But as soon as I look in a mirror, I see nothing but flaws. It was definitely an interesting thing to experiment with.”

Dame Helen has been naked countless times during her career since her very first on-screen nude scenes in the 1969 film Age of Consent aged just 22.
But she was 58 when she confidently stripped off in the 2003 British comedy Calendar Girls about a group of middle-aged Yorkshire women who decide to produce a nude calendar to raise money for Leukaemia Research with the support of the Women's Institutes.
Calendar Girls director Nigel Cole previously joked that Helen was almost too comfortable on set during her nude scenes.
He said: "After one nude shoot, I recall having to tell Helen Mirren to put her robe back on three or four times”.
Helen decided to undress one more time in 2011 in a nude photoshoot for New York Magazine, but the actress later declared that this would be her last time going naked in front of the camera.
In a CBS interview, the actress said: "I was doing nude scenes [from] the first moment I started doing movies, it was the era. It seemed to be nothing to get your knickers in a twist over.
"That’s the good thing about getting older, you don’t have to do that sort of thing any more."

She later revealed she was so anxious about filming the raunchy scenes that the night before she got drunk and burst into tears.
Anne, who also starred as Valerie Barlow in Coronation Street, said: ”I rang my son and I was weeping and he said, ‘Look Mum, it’s a great part, if you’re inhibited it’s not going to work so just go for it’".
