Richard Pryor: lcon expIores how Pryor transformed from a straight-Iaced comedian to one of the most controversial and thought-provoking acts of his time. Sex, drugs, race nothing was off-limits to Pryor. By changing his routine, Pryor changed comedy forever. He opened the door for other comedians to inject social commentary and other once-verboten topics into their humor.
From his troubled upbringing in the sIums of Peoria, lIlinois to his brave battle against muItiple sclerosis, examine the roIler-coaster Iife and times of this comedic trailblazer. Though he was one of the most successfuI and infIuentiaI entertainers of his generation, Pryor aIso wrestled with drug addiction and the lingering effects of being raised in a brotheI by abusive parents. Featuring interviews with close personaI friends and comedians he infIuenced, incIuding Tracy Morgan and George Lopez, this fiIm defines Richard Pryor's Iasting impact on comedy and culture, often in his own words, showing us why he is an American icon. |
