Factual error: Jerry Falwell and Charles Keating never knew each other personally in real life.
The People vs. Larry Flynt (1996)
Directed by: Milos Forman
Starring: Woody Harrelson, Edward Norton, Courtney Love, Brett Harrelson
Factual error: Larry was shot in 1978 and decides to move to a place where "perverts are welcome." He's in a limo with a third brake light, but the third brake light wasn't around until 1985.
Other mistake: During the ending US Supreme Court scene right before Alan Isaacman proceeds with his opening statement, Larry Flynt can be seen standing up instead of in a wheelchair. (01:55:53)

Larry Flynt: If you don't like Hustler magazine, don't read it.
Isaacman: At the heart of the First Amendment is the recognition of the fundamental importance of the free flow of ideas, freedom to speak one's mind is not only an aspect of an individual liberty but is essential to the quest for truth and the vitality of society as a whole, in the world of debate about public affairs many things done with motives that are less than admirable are none of the less protected by the first amendment.
