Beulah Bram A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

e-70733 Seemingly, it is very convenient to use the details of historical data to force the audience into an emotional atmosphere of a story, but it has already destroyed the basic law of drama. Because the historical value of a real event does not necessarily mean that it can play a positive role in a dramatic adaptation. This may explain why most chapters of the film seem to be unfocused. The director Milos Forman tried to save this film with a skilled emotional ending, but it was too late.

Python Hyena The People VS Larry Flynt (1996): Dir: Milos Foreman / Cast: Woody Harrelson, Courtney Love, Edward Norton, James Cromwell, Richard Paul: Rousing film about Larry Flynt and his constant battle with society and what is morally acceptable. He is the creator of Hustler magazine, which rivals Playboy in its pornographic expectations. He argues that the female body should not be disregarded but lands in court on numerous occasions. Eventually he ends up in a wheelchair after an attempt is taken on his life. He lands in court again to answer a lawsuit by a religious leader. Then his wife announces that she has A.I.D.S. Some may see it as a celebration of repulsive behavior yet the film is provocative with director Milos Foreman presents strong arguments. Foreman is at his best with material such as this especially when one looks at Amadeus, arguably his best film. Woody Harrelson delivers a flawless performance displaying Flynt's ego and arrogance. Courtney Love is superb as Flynt's unstable wife whose health suffers. Edward Norton is excellent as Flynt's frustrated lawyer who does much damage control. James Cromwell delivers interesting supporting work as well as Richard Paul who plays off the religious right wing agenda of Jerry Fawell whom Flynt mocks. Portrait of a man with questionable ethics and an argument for free speech. Score: 8 / 10

Alan Isaacman (Edward Norton) is his lawyer in the long running battle with the government.It's a great performance from Woody Harrelson in one of the most compelling modern characters. Love him or hate him, one cannot ignore Larry Flynt. Also one should not ignore this performance. Surprisingly Courtney Love gives a coherent and wonderful performance. It's a quick moving movie despite a lot of courtroom drama. It takes a dirty subject and shines a light on a brighter meaning.
