Brian Grazer, who won an Oscar for 'A Beautiful Mind,' will be producing a
feature length film chronicling Hugh Hefner's life. Hefner, 81, reportedly
approved the project last week, after selling his life rights to Grazer a few
years ago. Brett Ratner, director of the 'Rush Hour' movies, will be directing
the Playboy movie,
"He broke all kinds of taboos, especially in sexuality. I
want to show it all, from the First Amendment (guaranteeing free speech)
struggles to his first orgy to the stroke in the 1980s that almost killed him.''
Like him or not he has had a profound effect on American, and as such an effect on global culture like few others in history have had. The way he started his business is actually rather interesting, and the goals he had when he started as well. It isn't as simple as many people would think. I have come across some of the details, but you can see them in the movie.
