The film makes the case that Bruce was impoverished and broken by a series of unjust arrests and prosecutions in the 1960s. Clips of Bruce performances, \"bits\" as he calls them, dominate the film, from Steve Allen's TV show to night-club appearances late in life when he would mine his arrests for material. Malcolm Muggeridge calls Bruce a moralist. A former assistant district attorney from New York in effect apologizes for his part in persecuting Bruce. In black and white.  About an hour.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TV Museum DVDs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47220554203238,"sku":"tax1789916115472","price":8.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0719\/2412\/1702\/files\/lenny-bruce-without-tears---1972_1.jpg?v=1789916118","url":"https:\/\/vitamincglow.shop\/products\/lenny-bruce-without-tears-1972","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
