Comedy
Directed
by: Walter C. Miller
Cast:
Sam Kinison
Running
time: 50 minutes
In this HBO special of his, from 1987, Sam
Kinison dove on stage without any effort to hold back. He ranted and raved, he
screamed at the top of his lungs; basically, he was up to his usual antics.
And, people loved it.
In Breaking the Rules, the preacher turned
stand-up comic, who would die in a car crash five years later, talked about
drugs, about women (his favorite subject), about sex and about religion. He did
it with his razor-sharp tongue, never afraid to throw out an obscenity or two
in the midst of a sentence.
Some of the material did not age so well and
would likely come off as sexist, homophobic and such, but it was a product of
its time.
Overall, this is a very funny stand-up comedy
show, with some great raunchy material. A few lines miss the mark, but the
majority of it was great.
