HOLLYWOOD ? A new documentary titled Larry Flynt: The Right to Be Left Alone will be shown Tuesday, Aug. 21 at the ArcLight Hollywood theater, as part of the International Documentary Association's DocuWeek.

The film, by first-time director Joan Brooker-Marks, was privately financed and began shooting in Oct. 2005, after Brooker-Marks was introduced to Flynt by her husband, Walter Marks, an old acquaintance of the Hustler founder's. Flynt gave the director free reign with the project, providing her access to his vast personal archives.

"I wanted to touch on the seminal events in his life," Brooker-Marks told The Hollywood Reporter, "but also wanted to really, really concentrate on his court battles on behalf of the First Amendment. Personally, I think the First Amendment is unequivocal, and Larry's efforts have been significant ? particularly for writers and satirists, even though they have been minimized because he is a pornographer."

I'm sure this documentary would be well worth watching. It seems a lot of people don't realize the significance of what Larry did, especially when he did it.

Even the hollywood movie "The People -vs Larry Flynt" was a great film.
