Nose size usually doesn't figure in the popularity of an adult
film, but recently a passel of porn-film connoisseurs have been
freezing the frames of one crudely made videotape to determine if
the skin starlet with an unusually large proboscis is a prefame
Streisand.
Erlichman, her manager, says speculation about the poorly made and
oft-duplicated skin flick first surfaced in the 1970s. The
controversial flick is covered in a new book titled "Biggest
Secrets." Author William Poundstone writes about it in a chapter of
the William Morrow tome titled "Blue Movies of the Famous."
The grainy quality of the footage -- taken at a time when
miniskirts were in fashion -- doesn't help solve the mystery, and,
Poundstone writes, the film's origin "is lost in a farrago of
repeated duplication. The actress' face is not visible all the
time, partly because of the filmmaker's obsession with other parts
of her body... While it's not the sharpest film ever shot ... it's
someone who looks like Streisand, and actresses with noses that
could be mistaken for hers are not common in blue movies."
Though Streisand did not respond to Poundstone's letter asking her
to confirm or deny her participation in the film, Erlichman, via
his staffers, faxed us a statement: "This is totally fallacious.
Barbra has never been in any pornographic film. For anyone to print
it, or believe it, is ludicrous."
Streisand reportedly did do a nude scene in the 1970 film "The Owl
and the Pussycat," but the scene was deliberately obscured when she
objected to its use. And she successfully sued High Society when
the skin mag printed crystal-clear shots of the scenes. (I do not
know what the status of that issue of High Society is - dir)
