The People VS Larry Flynt (1996) **Spoilers**

[GetDownOnYourKnees]

I just got through watching this.

I didn't know much about Larry Flynt, previously other than he was the creator of "Hustler", and got shot.

After watching, I love Larry Flynt, I love how he went after Jerry Falwell. The Supreme Court decision was indeed a great moment for free speech. Even if you have something against consenting adult pornography, you should like Larry Flynt for his free speech and civil liberties advocay.

One of my favourite line's form the movie is: "Your Honour, I am an Atheist, I cannot swear to a god I do not believe exists". :p

In real life Larry Flynt was a friend of Madalyn Murray O'hair, the founder of the "American Atheists" organisation which she founded after winning the 1963 Murray VS Cureltt surpreme court cases banning teacher-led prayer and bible reading from public schools. He actually gave her a gold necklace.

Long Live Larry Flynt!

I got a 720p version, good enough for me.

Interesting footnote, Edward Norton's character was a composite of several lawyers from Manson's own 1st Amendment legal team in the '90s.

And, yeah, it's definitely a great movie with a surprising star turn by Courtney Love she never really lived up to again, unfortunately.

Speaking of which, 720's fine...but I'm gonna watch her tits in all their glory in her prime, I'd rather have a 1080 remaster, lol.

;D
