Larry Flynt documentary to play Los Angeles.
In a timely response to a current political situation where the fundamental civil rights of Americans are being contested, the film offers an eye-opening and authoritative overview of Flynt's long-standing struggles to expand the parameters of free speech and expose the hypocrisy of this country's elected leaders.
Featuring rarely seen documentary and television footage, as well as in-depth interviews with Flynt himself, the documentary focuses on the self-described smut peddler's usually contentious entanglements with politics from his precendent-setting Supreme Court case against evangelist and adulterer Jerry Falwell, to his jailtime sentence for refusing to name his source for the tapes documenting the FBI's entrapment of John Delorean, to his campaign runs for both California governor and United States President.
'Larry Flynt: The Right to be Left Alone' will be featured in the 11th Annual DocuWeek Theatrical Documentary Showcase. The Showcase is made possible by the International Documentary Association (IDA) and will be playing at the ArcLight Cinemas in Hollywood, CA and at the Landmark in Los Angeles from August 17th to August 23rd.
