Filmmaker and photographer Pat Rocco tries to get Jim Cassidy drunk. Pat was Jim's biggest fan. In fact, it was Pat who gave Jim his stage name.
Mr. Rocco was a huge supporter of the LGBTQ community. His activism, as well as his photographs and films, attracted the attention of the LA vice squad. In 1974 they raided Pat's home and spent hours going through his personal belongings. They found nothing. Eventually the case against him was dropped.
Mr. Cassidy was one of the early "stars" of gay adult films and he parlayed that into a career that kept him busy throughout the 1970s. He's credited for approximately 100 films and that number probably does not include the times he was called in to "stunt dick" for a scene. Stunt dick? Yeah, it's exactly what you think it is.
