The People vs Larry Flynt has never been more relevant. A beautiful film made by one my favorite directors ever Miloš Forman, this is a story about pornographer Larry Flynt’s right to freedom from censorship under the First Amendment. Very applicable. Very entertaining.

@PIOErikScott It's on Soectrum right now.

@shafbag Hmm... I think so.

I worked at McDonald’s when I was in high school, and I’m voting for Kamala!

Who else worked at McDonald’s?

[Scott Alexander @Scottcantype]

@Todd_Spence Yup!

@JoelFreeman2 @pumpkinfredhead You know, Joel Freeman was one of the producers of this film!

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Joe Biden has been one of America’s most consequential presidents, as well as a dear friend and partner to me. Today, we’ve also been reminded – again – that he’s a patriot of the highest order.

What a blast! So awesome to be with these three demented geniuses at @am_cinematheque! If you haven’t seen The Wrong Guy, see it NOW!!

[Larry Karaszewski @Karaszewski]

Wow. “The Wrong Guy” just fucking killed at the Cinematheque tonight. Every joke landed - it’s really one of the funniest movies ever. Plus a hysterical Q&A with Dave Foley, David Higgins, Jay Kogen moderated by my pal Scott Alexander.

[Scott Alexander @Scottcantype]

Tomorrow!

[Dave Foley @DaveSFoley]

Honored to have The Wrong Guy included in this celebration of beloved but forgotten movies, by the American Cinémathèque.

@giannigambuzza Wow. People suck.

[Scott Alexander @Scottcantype]

@itsjonrobertson @bobfreelander So good

[Scott Alexander @Scottcantype]

@tcurtisfox @yogoldsmith @Karaszewski @newbeverly And also written by John Klein… who was there last night!

[Scott Alexander @Scottcantype]

Comedy alert! I'm hosting a screening of THE WRONG GUY. Dave Foley plays a guy who thinks he's been framed for murder. He goes on the run, while the cops ignore him. It is SO FUNNY! @DaveSFoley, @DAnthonyHiggins & @JayKogen will all be in attendance! Wow!
