Lenny (1974) (1993x7)

:

Lenny is the story of the comedian Lenny Bruce. The director, Bob Fosse, was a dancer and a choreographer who began his directorial career with the 1969 musical Sweet Charity. Thereafter he directed Cabaret, which made his reputation; Lenny; All that Jazz, a quasi-autobiography which prefigured his own death; and Star 80, the story of the murdered Playboy bunny Dorothy Stratten. No other short career, except perhaps Terence Malick’s, has produced so many outstanding films.
