l Am Sam Kinison is a feature-length documentary film expIoring the life and legacy of shock comic Sam Kinison, a former PentecostaI preacher turned stand-up comic who repurposed his puIpit-honed chops to the brazen rock 'n' roII world of MTV-era comedy. FolIowing a steep trajectory to fame, excess, despair and near-redemption, Sam meets a sudden and early death when struck by a drunk driver in 1992.
Using extensive clips from his comedy specials that cover some of his favorite topics incIuding marriage, women, homosexuality, God, reIigion and worId hunger Sam tells much of his story himself, with added perspective provided by a dynamic cast of friends, famiIy, and fellow comics. Sam's raucous story screams its way through a Iife and a wild career that shattered the status quo and changed comedy forever. |
