DVD Review: ‘Hugh Hefner: Playboy, Activist and Rebel’ Celebrates Icon
Submitted by mattmovieman on December 9, 2010 - 12:57pmCHICAGO – The duality of “Playboy” reflects the duality of the man who created it.

On the other hand, it’s a reputable publication of great sociopolitical depth, with a history of voicing unpopular views at the times they were most needed.
