- teh_klev 6y agoIt's a great movie, I can highly recommend. Especially seeing Falwell getting put in his place (fictionally of course).

- RichardCA 6y agoThis is good too. It's a PBS Frontline episode from 2002. If you look at the part starting at 41 minutes in, you see Larry Flynt functioning as the voice of reason and restraint. https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/showsporn/ https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/showsporn/
