Certification15 Our Rating
Beat Generation New Yorker Lenny Bruce shocked the world, and became the blueprint for a new kind of stand up comedy, with his profanities, attitudes toward drugs, irreverence, anti-establishmentism and general anarchistic demeanour. He faced years of consequent police and legal harassment.

MANUFACTURING DISSENT: UNCOVERING MICHAEL MOORE (2007)
Certification15 Our Rating
This is a very good deconstruction of the political polemicist Michael Moore, a man who's made a lot of money out of feeding liberals entertainment and whose cupboard rattles with skeletons.

CertificationE Our Rating
When THE fast food chain issued a libel action against activists Helen Steel and Dave Morris in 1990, demanding an apology for allegations they had made in a leaflet, the corporate giant didn't expect the pair to not only refuse to apologise, but to actually invite McBully to bring it on.

Here the whole story is told with the requisite amount of humour
