And on that i believe you to be wrong. If i bought the softcore footage from a producer who shot the Traci Lords movie and I took all the softcore footage from it and edited together a new movie - it would not need to comply with 2257. The only legal problem would be totally seperate issue, if the cops found out that during that shoot she was also hired underage to perform sexual acts then the producer would be charged with a crime. But me with my softcore movie made from footage shot on that day - not a thing they could do about that. no way, no how if i wasn't involved in hiring her to perform sexual acts.
