Containing rare, early footage of Sam preaching and performing stand up at the world famous Comedy Store, the Award Winning 'Why Did We Laugh' tells the story of a comedic genius who touched a deeper chord in people than most entertainers. Sadly, Sam was taken from us far too early, yet leaving us with a lasting and unique legacy. Includes excerpts from various stand-up appearances as well as interviews with Rodney Dangerfield, Richard Pryor, Dennis Miller, Larry King, Jay Leno, Judy Tenuta, Beverly D'Angelo, Tim Matheson and others. Also, appearances from 'Larry King Live', 'The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson.'
