The People vs. Larry Flint

Milos Forman|Biopic

The life story and legal scandal surrounding Larry Flynt, the publisher of the pornographic glossy magazine “Hustler”, until his appearance before the Supreme Court in 1988. The film amalgamates documentation, operatics and irony to form a brilliant portrait, which uses an extreme case to highlight the elementary meaning of the right to freedom of speech.
