En 1953, Hugh Hefner lançait le magazine pour homme Playboy, devenant ainsi le porte-étendard de la révolution sexuelle. Le succès du premier numéro est alors instantané. Aujourd'hui, le fondateur de l'empire Playboy est âgé de 84 ans, et fait réagir partout où il passe avec les plantureuses jeunes femmes qui l'accompagnent. Toutefois, peu de gens savent que par ses actions et par les textes qu'il a accepté de publier dans les pages de son magazine, cet hédoniste rebelle a été un défenseur des droits civils, des droits humains et du premier amendement, laissant à sa façon sa trace dans le grand livre de l'histoire de l'Amérique.

En 2001, Jack Cardiff (1914-2009) est devenu le premier directeur de la photographie de l'histoire des Oscars à recevoir un Oscar d'honneur. Mais la première fois qu'il a serré la célèbre statuette dans sa main, c'était un demi-siècle plus tôt, lorsque son travail de caméra en Technicolor avait été récompensé pour le Narcisse noir de Powell et Pressburger. Au-delà de The African Queen de John Huston et de War and Peace de King Vidor, les films du duo créatif britannico-hongrois (The Red Shoes et A Matter of Life and Death également) garantissent l'immortalité au célèbre caméraman dont la carrière s'étend sur soixante-dix ans.
