The set features timeless films spanning four decades now available on DVD with added perspective-ridden commentary tracks. From the time vault is the 1979 classic, "Diary of a Young Comic", the cult film Diary was an early production from Lorne Michaels' Broadway Video. Also in the exclusive set is the critically acclaimed 1995 film in which Lewis takes the dramatic lead, "Drunks," directed by Peter Cohn and features award winners to include Faye Dunaway, Dianne Weist, Sam Rockwell and more.

And last, but certainly not least, if you think getting inside Richard Lewis's head would be a trip, wait until you see the inside of his house. A fresh documentary features Lewis's former Hollywood Hills home. Self-moderated, he shares his passion for the arts and his career through countless uniquely Lewisian artifacts. The cover art was by good friend and Rolling Stone, Ron Wood. The "Bundle of Nerves" box set is being released through North America by Video Services Corp.
Set for screening at the 2014 Venice Film Festival is the Peter Bogdanovich film, "She's Funny That Way," with a release in 2015.

In 2015, his second book, "Reflections from Hell", will be on shelves, published by Powerhouse Books. Lewis collaborates with famed NY artist and longtime friend, Carl Nicholas Titolo.
