Behind the Green Door 1 (1972) is a 1972 feature-length pornographic film, widely considered one of the genre's "classic" pictures. It was the first hardcore film widely released in the United States and the first feature-length film directed by the Mitchell brothers and starred Marilyn Chambers.
It was adapted from an anonymous short story of the same title, which was circulated by means of numerous carbon copies. The story's title makes reference to the 1956 hit song "Green Door." The film was given an X-rating by the MPAA.
Chambers plays the role of Gloria. The story begins in a cafe, where a cook asks two truck drivers to tell the story of the green door. Gloria is then shown being kidnapped and taken to a sex theater, where she is placed on a stage and forced to perform various sexual acts with multiple partners in front of a masked audience.
The Mitchell brothers appear in the film as her kidnappers. First she is fondled by several women wearing robes. Her first heterosexual scene in the film is with Johnny Keyes, accompanied by a jazz soundtrack. This possibly makes Behind the Green Door the first U.S. feature-length hardcore film to include an interracial sex scene.
