Review of Lenny (1974) by Michael G — 10 Feb 2009
Lenny is a biopic that feels more like a documentary but seems to dwell on feelings instead of fact. If that makes any sense. The black and white photography is fantastic as is Bob Fosse's direction.
Dustin Hoffman and Valerie Perrine were also great even if the story couldn't sit still. I thought it ended kind of abruptly but Bruce left us that way. Definitely essential viewing for any fan of Lenny Bruce's.
