Lewis Black: Thanks for Risking Your Life

Про цей фільм

Lewis Black, heir to the George Carlin throne of the comedy rant, and practitioner of his signature blend of frustrated optimism, lets loose again on his familiar punching bags of hypocrites, corporate swindlers, and governmental incompetents. Black doesn’t have set-ups to jokes so much as he has volcanic build-ups, twitchily rumbling up to eruptive punch lines. Black performed this set just days after the rest of the country shut down (the show was allowed to go on because it was in a sovereign Native American venue), so his commentary covers our current Corona-induced anxiety and his own hilarious frustration over The-Orange-One-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. Lewis Black doesn’t take political sides; whether he’s exposing the wide-spread systemic failures of both parties, or pin-pointing the micro-stupidities within pop culture, commensurate rage is jettisoned in favor of deploying an overwhelming force of comic condemnation, punctuated by his ever-present arsenal of F-Bombs.

Claims to not take sides but immediately complains about our president, this is why most of the country has no respect for Hollywood you all can keep your opinions to yourselves

Huge Lewis Black fan, have seen him live a few times, listen to his audio specials frequently when I need a laugh. If you like Lewis, you'll love this. He is quick and sharp here in what I think may be his first (filmed) hour special?

Dont pay for it. It isnt comedy its just a lecture complaining about the virus.
