American: The Bill Hicks Story

I have heard of Bill Hicks sporadically (maybe because I don't get out much and I have been away for such a long time), so I wanted to know a bit more about his life (and his too early death).

The film (and his life's story) is especially impressive, hearing of his accomplishments at such a young age as a comedian. Of course the story goes on to cover his adulthood, which I found a bit less interesting, perhaps because I had previously had some knowledge of his work at that age, and it wasn't new to me.

If you have heard any of his work, you know he is not only funny, but really had something to say. There are lessons to be learned from him and he should not be forgotten.
