Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDespite 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".
- GoofsIn the oral arguments before the Supreme Court, there are nine Justices. Those arguments took 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 versionsThe 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.

Featured review
Woody does here what he always does...he steals the show.
The story the movie tells is a good one and it does a great job of creating debate about free speech.
However this movie lives and dies on the performance of Woody.
One of the most underrated actors off all time :)
