Larry Flynt - Skandalernas man

The People vs. Larry Flynt

Detta är ingen film om droger, sex eller annat som vid första blicken verkar uppenbart - utan en film om frihet, friheten att göra val.

Harrelson and Love deliver convincing performances...

Love proves she is not a rock star pretending to act, but a true actress, and Harrelson matches her with his portrait of a man who has one thing on his mind,and never changes it.

Far more All The President's Men than Showgirls, Flynt sidesteps skin-flick visuals for an often painfully intense look at the madness of the American courtroom.

Why is The People vs. Larry Flynt entertaining? Probably because the lead character is so much bigger than life, and perhaps because, by making him into a sympathetic man, we're spared the darkest portions of his personality.
