What's the slipcover made of?

Is it just a cardboard slipcover like the new "Reservoir Dogs" SE, or is it clear plastic? The pictures make it look like it could be red-tinted plastic with white printing on it, letting parts of the inner cover show through.

That's what it is. It's kind of like The Usual Suspects: SE slip cover.

It's definately different, but personally I still prefer the first one:



The story is about censorship, the flag over the mouth says that.

Having (Larry Flynt) spread out as if on a cross on a woman's crotch is certainly interesting, but what is it trying to say? That Flynt is Jesus Christ, being persecuted for his beliefs? Or is he chained up, as if he is a prisoner of a woman's genetalia?

Probably has to do with people being nail on crosses for thinking differently. I like either poster, both get the message across.

I'd say it was to represent Flynt getting "crucified" by right-wing America (Jerry Falwell, et al) for his views and work, and the woman's crotch tells you why (the "backdrop" of the story).
