[Hugh Hefner]
It was 1962
and America was changing.

The space program was
in full swing,

and John Glenn became the first
person to orbit the earth.

Johnny Carson was named the new
host ofThe Tonight Show,

and the Cuban Missile Crisis,

which had kept the country
on edge for 13days,

came to an end.

While American culture
was shifting,

the world ofPlayboy
had exploded.

♪♪

Our magazine had over
one and a half million
readers each month.

[man]
♪ The little girl
she looks so... ♪

And the Playboy Club had become
the biggest party in Chicago

with over 100,000 key holders.

♪ Talk a while ♪

♪ Yeah, I was looking
back to see ♪

♪ If she was
looking back to see if I... ♪

With the mounting success
of the Chicago Club,

it was time to take
our party national.

And I knew the perfect location
for the next Playboy Club...

New York City.

But the competition was tough.

New York was home to the some
of the world's hottest

and most iconic nightlife.

So I sent Victor Lownes to get
a better feel for the market.

[Victor Lownes]
I found a perfect location

on East 59th Street.

I was staying
at the Plaza Hotel,

and I noticed a "for rent"
sign on a building

that I could see
out of my window at the Plaza.

Central Park here.

Cartier,
Tiffany's.

And you see these
picture windows here?

That's all the advertising
we'll need.

When people walk by
and see that spiral staircase

filled with
a rainbow of Bunnies...

We got 'em.

When can renovations
begin?

We should be cleared
to start in two weeks.

I'm finalizing everything

with the Department
of Buildings today.

[Bob Preuss]
Which reminds me, Victor.

Preliminary budgeting has us
at 2.5 million.

Right now we're
overextended by a lot.

We're pre-selling memberships,
that'll help.

No, it will help,
you're right, but--

Bob, it's New York.

I know it's New York, but it
doesn't hurt to limit risk.

[Hefner]
This is what I want.

This design,
at this address.

To me,
that's worth the risk.

[Patty Farmer]
They put $7 million
into renovations,

and that was a huge amount
at that time.

And that did not even take into
account the advertising budget.

So Victor really had
high hopes for this Club

being really the jewel
in the Playboy Club chain.

[Hugh Hefner]
With our plans in place,

we started construction.

And at seven stories high,
the Club would have twice

the capacity
of our Chicago location.

But I soon realized that
doing business in New York

had risks I hadn't anticipated.

To open a club, you needed
a liquor license.

And to get a liquor license,

you had to go through
the state's licensing board.

But no state government was
more corrupt than New York's.

Albany was since
the 19th century

and continuesto this day,
a cesspool of corruption.

If you want to get anything
done in New York State,

you gotta pay somebody.

You've got to pay
some elected official, right,

to get the go-ahead.

That is how things
are done in New York.

[Hugh Hefner]
Soon enough, we were informed

that in order to open our Club,

we had to pay a corrupt
government official

a bribe of $100,000.

[Hefner]
This is blackmail.

That's how it works.

Well, we're not paying him.

We need to open the Club now

and we can't do that
without a liquor license.

Plus, we've already started
selling memberships.

We have over 10,000
customers who already paid.

How would they react if we
canceled the opening?

[Hugh Hefner]
Arnie insisted that pay-offs
were the cost of doing business.

But paying a bribe went against
everything I stood for.

[Victor Lownes]
Hefner's an extremely
moral person.

You had to be, and there were
so many trumped-up charges,

and efforts to indict us for
things that we didn't do wrong

that we had to keep
our nose clean.

[Hugh Hefner]
I knew it was a risk

to involvePlayboy
in any illegal activity.

But if we wanted to get
our liquor license
to open our club,

I had no choice.

So I paid the bribe.

What I didn't know then
was that

in going against my conscience,

I was making a decision
that would hauntPlayboy

for years to come.

over 3,000 guests a night.

Not bad, huh?

Not bad at all.

Baltimore, Kansas City,
Cincinnati and Los Angeles.

Playboy was on top of the world.

But just when it seemed like
everything was going our way...

♪ Don't cry no more baby... ♪

...a decision I made
months earlier

was about to threaten
the entirePlayboy empire.

[phone ringing]

[phone continues ringing]

[Bob Preuss]
Hef?

Hef...

Bob?

[Bob]
Sorry, I know it's early.

It's 10:00 a.m.

It's important.

[sighs]

[Hugh Hefner]
Just a few months after
the New York Club opened,

my staff caught wind
of a government operation

that could shut us down.

New York Governor,
Nelson Rockefeller,

had announced a corruption
investigation

with a specific focus
on the State Liquor Authority,

the same organization that had
forced me to pay a bribe

to get my club open.

I knew it was only
a matter of time

before Rockefeller's
investigation

would lead directly toPlayboy.

Hefner had apparently
given a bribe

to two New York
state officials,

the Chairman of the Republican
Party of New York

and the Chairman
of the State Liquor Board.

In Hugh Hefner's mind,

he had done what he needed to,

to get Playboy'sliquor
license in New York

[Hugh Hefner]
Practically every club owner in
New York City had paid a bribe.

But I knew our success
made us a big target.

And if investigators found out,
the Club could be shut down.

ThePlayboy name could be
tarnished,

and we could face
criminal charges.

To savePlayboy's reputation
and my own,

I decided there was
only one thing to do.

[Richard Rosenzweig]
Once one succumbs
to a bribe transaction,

you are hooked... forever.

Anything you need, names, dates,
Playboywill give it to you.

[Richard Rosenzweig]
We went to the District
Attorney's office in New York,

and we told them
what had occurred.

And they said they would work
together on this.

First time, I think that
it ever happened in New York.

[Victor Lownes]
Hefner and Morton,

the way they felt about it
had a certain rationale.

And with all the evidence...

We even paid
the bribe with a check.

And, I mean, so there was
no question about evidence.

And there was no question
about blowing the whistle.

[Hugh Hefner]
I followed through
with my promise

and turned over
all of our books.

[Richard Rosenzweig]
By handling it the way
we handled the approach

works out in the end.

And the word gets out to these
people that you cannot touch us

with these unlawful suggestions.

[Hugh Hefner]

with the Clubs,

And I quickly realizedPlayboy
needed to change with it.

[Hugh Hefner]
The pill came in in 1960.

And there were
topless go-go dancers

in both New York
and, uh, San Francisco.

And the sexual revolution had
become a reality.

And with that a permissiveness

that offered a new possibility
in terms of freedom.

It was also a time
of revolution too,

and you can't separate
that either.

I have a dream...

[Hugh Hefner]
It was a time of questioning
old mores and values.

It was a reaction
to the very repressive values

that had existed
in the '40s and '50s.

It was questioning a lot
of the fundamental views

that people saw were hurtful.

We hold these truths
to be self-evident

that all men are created equal.

We began publishing articles
tackling the changing times.

We slammed nuclear testing,

criticized America's corrupt
auto industry,

and basted America's
outdated government leaders.

We were even covering social
issues like economic reform.

Even some of my early critics
had to admit

the magazine
was doing important work.

The come-on for Playboy
in the '60s

was the fact
that you were going to see

the Playmate of the Month.

Once you bought the magazine
and began to read it,

then you understood that there
was stuff worth looking at.

Worth reading,
worth thinking about.

And some of it
was indeed groundbreaking.

[Hugh Hefner]
Playboy in its tenth year

was becoming more influential
than ever before.

[Richard Rosenzweig]
Writers, cartoonists,
photographers, artists,

they all wanted to be part
of this cultural revolutionary

piece of work
that we were doing.

And some of them,
and many of them actually

worked for less
than their normal fees

just to be part of it.

[man]
♪ So much to live... ♪

[Hugh Hefner]
Because I was
the face of the company,

I wanted to start my own column

to address topics
I cared about.

From drug law reform to
separation of church and state.

I called it
The Playboy Philosophy.

♪♪

But our biggest addition was
inspired by the conversations

I was having with celebrities
and intellectuals

at my parties
and on my TV show.

I thought it would be great
to give them a platform

to talk about the issues
they cared about,

and I knew our readers
would love it.

We called it
The Playboy Interview.

The firstPlayboy Interview

was with my good friend,
Miles Davis.

In an interview that took place
over two days,

he went beyond talking
about music

and opened up
about his experience

as a black man in America.

The magazine wanted to prove
itself to be broad-minded.

Miles Davis was
this very important guy.

The interview was comprehensive,
patient, finely edited.

[Hugh Hefner]
Over the next few months,

we interviewed Peter Sellers,

Jackie Gleason,

and Ayn Rand.

The interviews themselves
could have

up to 40 hours of material,

compiled over weeks or months.

[David Granger]
Well, the thing that makes
the Playboy Interview

completely unique is,
it's incredibly in-depth.

I mean, who's gonna give,
you know, somewhere between

ten and 25 hours
to an interviewer, you know?

I mean, especially now,
when every celebrity

is so completely controlled
by publicists.

[Hugh Hefner]
By spending so much time
with celebrities,

we developed a rapport.

And they shared things with us

they would never tell
any other publication.

It was a big status thing
to do the Playboy Interview.

And I think I answered
some things perhaps

a little more frankly
than I normally would,

thinking I'm in the big time
of Playboynow.

[Hugh Hefner]
ThePlayboy Interview went on
to become

one of the most iconic features
in the magazine's history.

[Arthur Kretchmer]
The interview was
in the first 20 years,

you'll see that they are
like a classical symphony.

One melody leads into the next
melody and the third melody

is a counterpoint
on the first melody.

There is a comprehensiveness
to them.

Many years later,
Steve Jobs said about

his first Playboy Interview,

it was the single best thing
in media he had ever done.

[Hugh Hefner]
With all of our new
editorial features,

there was so much to do
at the magazine

that I had little time
for anything else,

including my girlfriend,
Cynthia.

[Hugh Hefner]
I knew I should have
been spending

more time with Cynthia,

but my devotion to the magazine

was far from the only problem
in our relationship.

He dates other girls,
and I don't like it.

He knows I don't like it.

And he doesn't like when I date,

and he feels
it's wrong when I date.

Discussions go back and forth
and we try to work things out,

but I don't know what's going
to happen if this continues on.

I'll be right back.

[Richard Rosenzweig]
Cynthia was a very
vibrant young woman.

And they had a romantic
relationship.

Hefner never indicated
that he was a one-woman man.

And that was not to Cynthia's
liking, as one can imagine.

[Hugh Hefner]
Throughout all the years
with Playboy,

I never had
a monogamous relationship.

I think I was committed
to that lifestyle.

It was a young man's fantasy.

I was in a unique position
as the publisher of Playboy.

[Hefner]
Mm-hmm.

Well, let's set it up.

Or try to.

I'll, I'll call
you back, Spec, okay.

Everything okay?

It's great.

These heels, though...
they're a killer.

I'm sure if you talk
to the Bunny Mother,

she'll let you go back
to the dressing room
and take five.

Oh, I don't know,
she seems pretty strict.

Plus... it's always
fun to break the rules

every once in a while,
isn't it?

[Stephen Martinez]
Cynthia Maddox was
really beautiful.

Hef, uh, fell in love with her.

They started dating.

But Cynthia wanted to have
a relationship with him.

She just didn't wanna be
another girl,

and Hef wasn't prepared
for that.

[Hugh Hefner]
In the spring of 1963,

my relationship with Cynthia
came to an end.

Part of what my pursuit
of happiness has been all about

has been an attempt to walk
a different road.

And when you're walking
a different road without a map,

uh, you're gonna make mistakes.

And, you know, when you're
involved in a, in a series

of romantic relationships,

the nature of that
is gonna hurt.

I was sad to see Cynthia go,

but work was a welcome
distraction.

And soon,
bigger issues of the day

were taking up
all of my attention.

[marchers chanting]

[Martin Luther King]
The Negro still is not free.

[Hugh Hefner]
The Civil Rights Movement
was gaining momentum,

but the peaceful demonstrations
advocated

by Martin Luther King Jr.,
soon gave way to violence...

[crowd screaming]

...as police
in Birmingham, Alabama

brutally assaulted black
protestors.

[Martin Luther King]
We can never be satisfied

as long as the Negro is
the victim

of the unspeakable horrors
of police brutality.

[applause]

Playboy had been involved in
Civil Rights issues for years,

and we weren't going
to stop now.

[Arthur Kretchmer]
We did everything there was
to do about Civil Rights.

It was an overwhelming fact that
black people were badly treated

and that the magazine should do

what it could
to make that better.

The thing about the magazine
that nobody realizes

is it was the only magazine
in America that was fearless

on any topic you gave it,
Playboycould cover it

and could cover it honestly.

[Hugh Hefner]
In early 1963, a new leader
in the Civil Rights Movement

had captured
the nation's attention.

Malcolm X was
a polarizing figure,

who, unlike Dr. King,

encouraged violence
as a means of protest.

[Malcolm X]
We need an organization
that no one downtown loves.

We need one that's ready
and willing to take action,

- any kind of action...
- [audience reacts]

Not when the man downtown sees
fit but when we see fit.

- [audience affirms]
- By any means necessary.

[Jesse Jackson]
Malcolm X
was a black nationalist

who thought white people
were barbaric

by not allowing us
to use public facilities.

In that season of fear
and polarization

driven by former slaveholders
and segregationists,

the argument was that Malcolm
did not deserve a platform.

[Hugh Hefner]
In the spring of 1963,

Malcolm X agreed
to sit down with us.

[Spec]
We can't publish this.

"The white man must realize
that the sins of the fathers

"are about to be visited upon
the heads of the children

"who have continued
those sins,

only in more
sophisticated ways."

This is practically
a declaration of war.

If I'm not mistaken, it's what
he's been saying for years.

It is not our place to get
involved in his crusade.

Why not?
Because we're white?

Because we don't like
what he's saying?

Look, we've fought for years
against censorship of all kind,

to be able to express ourselves
the way we see fit,

live our life
how we want to.

Let's not become
hypocrites here, Spec.

Print this as is.

[David Eisenbach]
Malcolm X, his message
was really important.

But his rhetoric and language
was definitely threatening,

even to those who had
embraced civil rights.

Black people, you cannot
trust the white devil.

The white devil will always try
to keep you in chains.

So the fact that
you would have Hugh Hefner

giving Malcolm X an interview
in Playboymagazine,

whoa, man, now that's wild.

And they were interested...

[Jesse Jackson]
Hefner stood almost alone

in the social, political role,
as a force to be dealt with.

It was courageous 'cause
he was being encouraged

to not publish
the Malcolm X interview.

But he did not surrender.

[Hugh Hefner]
We knew that publishing
the interview

could mean losing subscribers,

but I was willing to bet
America was ready

to hear his words.

As it turns out, I was right.

After the Malcolm X
interview ran,

letters poured in
from all over the country,

thanking us for covering
his movement.

After nearly a decade,
Playboy magazine was finally

being recognized as much
for its editorial content

as for its centerfolds.

But that was
all about to change.

[piano music playing inside]

[both panting]

[door opens]

- Hef?!
- Bobbie!

- Hef!

The cops are downstairs.

Just tell them
I'll deal with it tomorrow.

They're here for you.

[camera shutter clicking]

[Hugh Hefner]
On June 4, 1963,

I was arrested and charged

with creating and distributing
an obscene publication.

Newspapers quickly
picked up the story,

and I couldn't help wonder
why the city of Chicago

was coming after me now.

We knew the magazine
wasn't obscene

because I knew my plans
for the magazine,

I knew that the Supreme Court
had already established

that nudity was not obscene.

The difference with Playboy

is that we went mainstream
immediately.

The obscene publication
in question was our June issue,

specifically,
an eight-page spread

of actress Jayne Mansfield.

Playboy had published
nude photos

of Mansfield twice before,

but our new photos were unique.

Taken on the set
of her upcoming film,
Promises! Promises!,

it was the first mainstream
Hollywood movie

to feature a star in the nude.

[Carrie Pitzulo]
The standards of obscenity were
very vague in these years.

Prosecutors claimed
that those pictures

were particularly obscene

because there was
a full-dressed man,

another character from the film
sitting on the side of the bed,

and they claimed that
the captions were obscene.

They talked about
Jayne Mansfield

writhing around in the bed.

After spending the night
in a Chicago jail cell,

I was released on bail
and returned home to start

working on how to fight
these ridiculous charges.

There aren't a whole lot
of things in our society,

not many publications,

that are willing to stand up
and say sex is good.

I'm the guy
and Playboy's the magazine

that is willing to say
sex is a good thing.

Sexual imagery
is a good thing.

The act itself is a good thing.

And before you can tell me
that it hurts somebody,

you have to make a serious case.

[David Eisenbach]
What makes something obscene?

The Supreme Court still
hasn't come up with

a legit definition,
a specific definition.

It's intentionally
written in a vague way.

So, if you were to try to
publish a national magazine,

you are open, uh, to prosecution
left and right.

[Eldon Sellers]
We need to avoid
court at all costs.

I just don't think
we have a choice here.

And we have the money
to settle.

You think the city
of Chicago's gonna let us

settle out of court?

[Eldon]
You know what? We gotta try.

- I agree with that.
- We can afford it.

[editor]
We need to be prepared for both
eventualities, frankly.

[discussion continues
indistinctly]

[Nadine Strossen]
Hugh Hefner was facing

a criminal sentence,
a prison term.

How many people are willing
to risk criminal prosecution?

Even if you're ultimately
acquitted,

you have enormous expenses,
enormous amount of time drained,

and a big stigma, being accused
of engaging in obscenity.

So you have to be willing
to place your resources

and your reputation on the line.

[Hugh Hefner]
Despite my team's advice,

I knew settling
wasn't an option.

These charges were censorship,
plain and simple,

and no one was going to take
away my freedom of speech.

[William Ming]
I don't take on cases
that are easy.

And I don't take on cases
I don't believe in.

So you're saying
this case won't be easy?

Six years ago,
the Supreme Court ruled

that it's not enough to point
to a single article

or image to label
a publication as obscene.

You have to look
at the magazine as a whole.

Well, there you go,
Playboy'sprimarily focused
on lifestyle, not nudity.

Correct.

So... what's the catch?

Well, when we go to court,
no matter how clearly

we explain it, we'll be
at the mercy of a jury.

[Hugh Hefner]
The man I had chosen
to represent me had already

won some of America's most
controversial cases.

His name was William Ming Jr.

I look forward to seeing
you at the arraignment.

- Thank you, William.
- You're welcome.

[Hugh Hefner]
Three years earlier he had
defended Martin Luther King Jr.

on perjury charges,
winning him an acquittal

in front of an all-white jury.

And a few years before that,
he served on the legal team

that won the landmark
U.S. Supreme Court case,

Brown v. The Board
of Education.

Ming was also involved
in the NAACP, the ACLU.

Hef's very much
into Civil Rights,

so it was a perfect match.

[Mike Wallace]
Police yesterday carted two tons
of obscene magazines, films,

and photographs to the city
incinerator and burned them.

[Hugh Hefner]
In the weeks leading up
to the trial,

the city of Chicago
stepped up its efforts

to damage our business.

And anti-pornography activists
came out of the woodworks.

[Charles Keating]
Men who would stand by
and see their women

degraded and debased
as they are with the breast

and the buttock presentation
by Playboyare not men at all.

[Hugh Hefner]
But the more they attacked,

the more I knew
I had to defendPlayboy.

In your June issue, you show
Jayne Mansfield unclothed,

lying in bed with
a man fully clothed.

Mm-hmm.

It looks like
you're asking for it.

- Why?
- Uh, you...

It looks as though
the photograph is designed

since we have both sexes
involved here...

Mm-hmm.

...solely to arouse
the viewer.

The difficulty is most people
who get into censorship

really know
very little about it.

They don't know much
about it psychologically.

They don't really recognize
the effect

that these things have.

And so what we were
really doing was, uh,

reporting on a,
on a movie in the making

and, uh, since a name
personality was involved,

the pictures we felt
had legitimate
journalistic interest.

[Mike Wallace]
This morning a man is
on trial in Chicago

charged with violating that
city's laws against obscenity.

He is Hugh Hefner,
publisher of Playboymagazine.

Many court cases involving
motion pictures, books,

and magazines have left
considerable gray areas

in determining just
what is salacious and obscene.

[Hugh Hefner]
The trial began
on November 20, 1963,

and from the beginning,

jury selection put us
at a huge disadvantage.

[Richard Rosenzweig]
We discovered that they
essentially rigged the jury

with not only almost all women,

but people from very
conservative organizations.

[Hugh Hefner]
The moment the trial began,

it was clear we were fighting
an uphill battle.

For more than a decade,

Playboymagazine has done more
to damage American values

than any other publication
currently in circulation.

It is up to you, ladies
and gentlemen of the jury,

to protect the basic
human decency

that this country stands for.

[William Ming]
Your sworn duty,
as members of the jury,

is to defend and uphold the laws
of the Constitution.

A constitution which
not only protects
the freedom of Mr. Hefner,

but which also protect
the freedoms of your
fellow citizens.

[Jesse Jackson]
Hefner's point was,
you had the right not to buy,

but not the right to deny it
to be seen and to be read.

And when he was attacked
on that basis,

he would not surrender
his First Amendment rights.

[Hugh Hefner]
The prosecution launched
into their case.

Your honor, the prosecution

would like to call
its first witness.

In your professional opinion,

do you find these pages
to be obscene?

Without reservation.

[John Melaniphy]
What do you think
is the aim of all this?

In my opinion,
to stimulate or inflame

the sexual appetite
of the average person.

[Hugh Hefner]
For nearly three weeks,

the prosecution argued that
the pictures inPlayboy

could incite readers
to commit sexual crimes.

Then something
unexpected happened.

Kennedy's death was the first
presidential assassination
of our time.

It was earth-shattering,

and it would come
to define a generation.

This is a sad time
for all people.

We have suffered a loss
that cannot be weighed.

[Hugh Hefner]
The world came to a halt.

[Lyndon Johnson]
For me, it is a deep,
personal tragedy.

I know that the world
shares the sorrow

that Mrs. Kennedy
and her family bear.

[newscaster]
His firm commitments
to support the cause

of democracies
throughout the world...

[Hugh Hefner]
Suddenly, the future
of the progressive movement

was in question.

[newscaster]
Across the country,

a great outpouring of grief,
shock, and revulsion.

[David Eisenbach]
JFK's assassination for
the generation of young people

is the same as the attack
on Pearl Harbor was

for the prior generation.

Subsequent generations
the blowing up of the Challenger

and 9/11 in that it destroys
the optimism and idealism.

It is a break with a sense
of security in the past

that everything was fine.

And a reminder that
no one is invulnerable.

[Hugh Hefner]
But just as the country
was struggling

to come to grips with the loss,

and life seemed like it would
never get back to normal,

it was finally time
to hear the verdict.

And now, the fate
of thePlayboy empire

was in the hands
of the jury.

Everything I had worked for

would be affected
by this decision.
