Synopsis
Bill Hicks: Sane Man (1989), directed by Kevin Booth and David Johndrow, is the first complete stand-up film ever shot of Hicks — watch online on iFILM. Recorded before his debut comedy album Dangerous, this 81-minute set catches Hicks at a specific moment: newly sober, pacing the stage with the energy of someone who has too much to say and not enough time to say it.
The material hasn't been polished down to its final form yet, which is exactly what makes it worth watching. Politics, media, corporate America — same targets as always, but the edges are still raw. Booth and Johndrow kept the camera close enough to catch something most standup recordings miss. For anyone who came to Hicks through his later work, this is a different angle on a familiar voice.
