The weird lead actor and actress choices in The People Vs Larry Flynt (1996)

In 1996, the film The People Vs Larry Flynt, a biopic about the founder of Hustler magazine, was released. While the story of the real life Larry Flynt is already crazy enough, and ripe for conspiracy theorist stories (recording of illegal orgies by famous politicians mentioned in one of the court scenes) the movie has a seemingly unnoticed weird quirk to it, the actor playing Flynt, Woody Harrelson, and the actress playing his wife, Courtney Love, both having a scene that refrences a real life body that person has claimed.

Okay, sounds ridiculous, I know. Let me start with the much more obvious one.

Around halfway through the movie, right after Flynt is shot outside the courthouse and paralyzed, theres a scene where his wife, played by Courtney Love, helps tie him off and shoot him up with heroin, then taking some for herself and shooting herself up. I'm assuming you all know the story of Kurt Cobain, and how his wife to be filming this almost exactly 2 years after his passing is quite ominous.

Woody Harrelsons I didn't catch while initially watching the film, mostly due to not understanding Woody's life story, but looking into him, my skin crawled and I knew exactly what scene was his "ritual". Woody Harrelsons father, Charles Harrelson, was a contract killer, who died in prison on a life sentence, after killing the federal judge John H Wood Jr in 1979, in San Antonio Texas. When Charles was being arrested for the assassination, he told police he had also assassinated John F Kennedy, and while police said he had nothing to do with the assassination, the 1989 book "Crossfire" by Jim Marrs claims Charles was one of the three men interrogated by police right after JFK's assassination, which lets be real, is that a coincidence?

Anyways, to get back to Woody and The People Vs Larry Flynt, theres a scene fairly early in the movie where Woody, playing Flynt, has a potential as for Hustler come across his desk, one about paying 1 million dollars to whoever can find JFK's killer. Flynt takes a liking to this ad, and asked why, he says he "wants to find out who killed kennedy". Ominous knowing that the actors father likely was the one who killed Kennedy. It's truly astounding how his father killed a federal judge and was paid to do so by the cartel, and just a few years later his son becomes one of the most famous actors?

Whats you alls take on this? Too out there to think that actors have theirs and their families crimes written into movies where they can lowkey admit to it but also legally not? Any other examples in movies you can think of?
