#	Quote
1	I put the film in one end of the projector and out of the other end comes money.
2	I've exploited the basest human emotions, but the one I exploited most was loneliness. That's who was paying my way, a lot of very lonely men.
3	I've got a high school education in making movies, but a PhD in selling them.
4	I have to admit I've made a pretty good living exploiting the lust, greed, and ignorance of the American public.
5	[Talking about the professionalism and reliability of Blood Feast (1963) star William Kerwin] He was what we called in the outdoor show business "good all-around show people".
6	[His philosophy on such things as permits and licenses] When you ask for permission, you got a 50-50 chance they're gonna say "No.", and the other 50% is gonna be, "What do I get paid?"
7	I never wanted to produce or direct adult hardcore films, because my work ethic in exploitation is: "Sell the sizzle, not the steak".
8	The whole idea of an exploitation film is to give people most of the show beforehand.

#	Fact
1	Started, with partner Dan Sonney, the Pussycat Theater chain of adult-film theaters. They sold it to Vince Miranda in 1968.
2	Unlike many of his fellow "exploitation" producers, Friedman came from a wealthy and prominent family--his father was a newspaper publisher in Birmingham, Alabama, and a close friend of US Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black.
3	Owner of Entertainment Ventures Inc., a film production/distribution company.
4	Lives in retirement since the early 1990s in his home town of Birmingham, Alabama. [February 2008]
5	He was a partner in Modern Film Distributors.
6	His first jobs in the industry included a stint as a film booker at a Paramount exchange by day and a union projectionist and stagehand by night. These jobs were interupted by a draft notice during World War II.
7	Because of his film experience as a civilian, when he went into the army he was assigned to the Signal Corps, where he attended Army Film School and was trained in motion picture production, distribution and exhibition.
8	After World War II, he bought some brand-new army-surplus searchlights and advertised them for sale. His first customer was the "king of exploitation", Kroger Babb. His meeting with Babb led to an association with the showman, especially with the producer's notorious roadshow attraction Mom and Dad (1945).
9	Coined the term "Mall-seleum" to refer to multiplex cinemas.
