    • Trivia
      Despite being portrayed in an Oscar-nominated movie, Larry Flynt was refused an invitation to the 1997 Academy Awards, so Woody Harrelson brought Flynt to the award shows as his "plus one".
    • Goofs
      In the oral arguments before the Supreme Court, there are nine Justices. In fact, those arguments had place on 2 December ,1987, when there were only 8 Justices on the Supreme Court bench: Justice Lewis F. Powell Jr. had retired on June 26, 1987 and his successor, Justice Anthony Kennedy, would be sworn in on 18 February , 1988. Kennedy took no part in the consideration or decision of the case.
    • Quotes

      Larry Flynt: Who is this magazine for, anyway? I mean, you know, it's like if you don't make twenty thousand plus a year - you don't jerk off. Seven million people buyin' it, and nobody's readin' it. Gentlemen, "Playboy" is mocking you.

    • Alternate versions
      The film was cut by 18 minutes to remove sex references, pornographic images, drugs, and language for television to grant a 'U' (unrestricted) certificate by the CBFC in Chennai in 2007. The uncut version is rated 'A' (adults) in Mumbai for video release in 2009.

    8/10
    Very good autobiographical drama
    Before watching this movie, I had nearly no idea who Larry Flynt was. I read a quick summary a few minutes before watching it, but I hardly knew any specific details. After watching it, I know exactly who he is, and what he stands for. He stands for freedom of speech. Some might call him a pervert. Others call him a patriot. I believe he is the latter. While I don't know the exact story of Larry Flynt from any other sources than this movie, I don't know if it's completely accurate. The plot is great, for a biographic piece, the acting is superb, by most actors, especially the three main characters. Most of the cinematography fits the movie perfectly. The only thing that bothered me a little, was there was relatively little information about why Larry Flynt did what he did, believed what he believed so strongly. I sympathized with his character in several scenes, but I never fully understood him. The director should have had at least a few more emotional scenes with Larry, to explain his actions better. Overall, a very good drama. Recommendable to most fans of the genre, as long as they can stand what the movie shows them. If you have an open mind, you're not too easily offended and you're into autobiographical dramas, this is a good film to watch. 8/10
