I'm Not a Comedian, I'm Lenny Bruce

I’M NOT A COMEDIAN… I’M LENNY BRUCE chronicles the life and death of the most controversial comedian and undisputed legend of all time…Lenny Bruce. His personal pain, sharply funny social commentary, and completely original freestyle comedy left a lasting impact on today’s poetry, politics, music, film -and, of course -comedy. His unwavering commitment to, and passion for, free speech led to numerous obscenity charges and arrests. Bruce fought for freedom of speech to the Supreme Court and died of an accidental overdose in 1966 while out on appeal.
