Express Review

After Hefner’s death, the secrets come out.  ‘Secrets of Playboy’ is a difficult and tough documentary to watch.  It discusses the despicable things that Hugh Hefner was doing at the Playboy mansion and within the empire.  Interviews include Miki García (former director of Playmate Promotions), Hefner’s ex-girlfriends (Holly Madison, Bridget Marquardt, and Sondra Theodore), Hefner’s personal assistant (Stefan Tetenbaum), bunny mother PJ Masten and Jennifer Saginor (a resident of Playboy Mansion West) and many more.  The documentary is as disturbing as 'We Need to Talk about Cosby'.  

In some cases, Hefner offers false promises such as "Playmate of the Year" or a part in a movie.

He controls and coerces women to get what he wants ...  in most cases, he abuses them without a care in the world.

“The fantasy world of Playboy has been shrouded in secrecy for decades and we are proud to lift the veil on these long-hidden stories.  Breaking down barriers and exposing the truth, ‘Secrets of Playboy’ is a masterful example of brave storytelling that takes an unflinching look at the personal affects of Hugh Hefner’s empire, while also exploring his legacy’s larger influence on our society and modern-day views of sexuality.”
