Film Lens
Totally Bill Hicks is a documentary that presents the life and comedy of Bill Hicks through two main segments. The first part, Revelations, features a recording of Hicks' final live performance at the Dominion Theatre in the United Kingdom. The second part, It's Just A Ride, includes interviews with friends, family, and admirers, providing insight into Hicks' personal life and comedic philosophy.
Originally released in 1994, the documentary was significant enough to be the first of Hicks' videos released on DVD in 2002. Critics noted the continued relevance of Hicks' material, particularly a joke about the Bush administration and Iraq's weapons of mass destruction, which was relevant during both the Gulf War and the lead-up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
