While other talking heads in the clip declare Hef to be “an advocate for sexual freedom and the first amendment,” another insists that “he really did believe he owned these women.”

Also appearing in the trailer is Holly Madison, Hef’s onetime girlfriend and star of reality series “The Girls Next Door”, who hints at a sinister undercurrent within the world of Playboy.

“I didn’t realize that getting into the Playboy world was a dangerous choice,” Madison says.
