The Henry Flagler Memorial on Monument Island recently made what is likely its first ever cameo in an adult movie, and history buffs - and city officials - are not entertained.
When Miami-Dade voters agreed to spend $1 million to restore the Flagler Memorial on Monument Island, many hoped the beautification of one of the countys most revered historic structures would attract new visitors.
But probably not porn stars.
The lushly landscaped island between the Venetian and MacArthur causeways, which boasts a 110-foot obelisk honoring Florida pioneer Henry Flagler, is now the backdrop for an online porn video produced by RealityKings.com.
The film shows a redhead creditted only as Brooklyn showing off what could loosely be described as her acting chops with fellow thespian JMac.
Miami Beach officials - and at least one local historian - are not amused.

Er... 'thespianism'?
“The Freudian implications of filming a sex scene in the shadow of a soaring obelisk is ripe for debate.”
As if the porn actors are any worse than the corrupt political wh*res who run the Dade, Broward and Palm Beach County commissions.
At least these pathetic “thespians” are not stealing from the public.
Anything to make a buck. Bleh.
Baracchio screws the country daily in the shadow of the Washington Monument.
If the movie is any good it will attract more visitors than $1 million in restoration taxes....lol
I'm guessing I can predict at least one of the camera angles used... Let's see, had the obelisk in the background and ...
TTIWWP?
Actually, back in 2007, I posted this comment about Gregory Peck and Laurence Olivier.
I remember watching the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson many years ago, when Gregory Peck was on. They were discussing the recent porn trial of John Holmes, when Peck said: "You know, someone once asked me that and I said the day that Laurence Olivier drops his pants on the screen is the day that I will support adult actors, and then I saw the movie The Betsy."

We used to call them ‘thesbians’. That always got a good laugh in high school.
Maybe a mass debate.
I think it was Freud who said,
“
Sometimes, a soaring obelisk is just a soaring obelisk.
“
>> Walters said the rules only apply if someone witnesses the act.
God forbid the exhibits of bears and Popes.
>> soaring obelisk.
If Freud, then to whit a soring obelisk.
Thay it with a lisp. Or at least that’s the way I heard it put by College actors in the day.I thought they were mostly-if not all a little squishy.
