American: The Bill Hicks Story (2009) Directed by Matt Harlock & Paul Thomas.
Before entering the cinema, I had very little knowledge of Bill Hicks, other than he was an American comedian. That's where my knowledge of him came to a halt. 102 minutes later, I wondered why it took until now to discover his genius.
'American' chronicles Bill Hick's rise to fame as he conquers drugs and alcohol. The documentary is narrated by his close friends and family and has a beautiful over stylized narration which makes this documentary one of a kind. An unforgettable ride, full of hysterical humor during his stand up routines around the world.
American: The Bill Hicks story is a must-see.
