Lenny 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray presents Bob Fosse’s nervy, freewheeling portrait of taboo-shattering comedian Lenny Bruce, the counterculture lightning rod whose unfiltered routines redefined the boundaries of free expression. Dustin Hoffman delivers a live-wire performance as the motormouthed provocateur, tracing Bruce’s rise from strip-club emcee to courtroom-tested free-speech icon, while Valerie Perrine lends aching humanity as Honey, his wife and emotional anchor drifting through the dark margins of bohemia.

Shot in stark black and white, Fosse’s film fuses kinetic editing with smoky backstage intimacy to capture both the electricity of Bruce’s act and the personal cost of rebellion. Lenny Criterion 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray restores this complex portrait of one iconoclast by another with striking clarity and depth.
