Hugh Hefner Takes His Harem to Toronto




Leaving the comforts of his Playboy mansion, Hugh Hefner turned up at the 2009 Toronto International Film Festival on Saturday afternoon (September 12).

Accompanied by girlfriends Karissa Shannon, Kristina Shannon and Crystal Harris, the iconic men's magazine mogul was on-hand for the "Hugh Hefner: Playboy, Activist And Rebel" screening at the Visa Screening Room at the Elgin Theatre.

Talking about the new documentary, Hef told press, "Here's an opportunity to have this other side of me, a more serious one, explored by someone as talented as Brigitte Berman, and having it done by a woman and a Canadian with the support of the Canadian government, it's all very complementary."

Meanwhile, Oscar-winning documentary maker Brigitte Berman said of her latest work, "For me, this film has it all -- sex, glamour, politics, romance, tragedy, and conflicts -- and many great surprises about a man people think they know, but don't really know."
