Richard Pryor will
- I love his humor.
- He can make anything funny.
He hits home.
After all, that's why I'm here,
'cause of the people.
It's not something that was made up
in some agent's office.
Tell the world
go out and see Richard Pryor.
The man is phenomenal.
He's the best comedian
I've ever seen.
He's the best in the north,
south, east and west.
I've never seen him in person,
but I'm gonna see him tonight.
He's live, always live.
They pull for me to do well.
You know, I feel it.
- I admire his courage.
- He's an artist.
- He's like being at a party.
- It's like he's telling the truth.
- I like everything about Richard Pryor.
- I don't like him. I love him.
- Hey, he's just the most, man.
- I think he's the comedian of the '80s.
What can I tell ya? He's the most
from coast to coast. Richard is.
Richard Pryor!
There's something in me
that's dying to express itself.
The changes are so immense.
It has to do with the work.
- What kind of shit you handing me?
- Sign it.
F*ck is it? I don't know
what you handing me to sign.
What the f*ck it say on there?
Champagne list? I ain't signing
for no goddamn champagne.
Here. You take this shit, boy,
and you stuff this up your ass.
I ain't signing it.
I'm an old man.
I know about things.
And I know I ain't
signing shit now.
I'm up here trying
to earn some money, boy.
I'm working hard.
For all these people, son.
You know what?
You remind me of--
You know--
Do you know Junior Shore?
You any relation toJunior?
You his nephew, ain't ya?
You see, I remember
when you was little.
You, Sarah Thompson--
Yeah, that was you.
You, Sarah Thompson,
son of Poole...
was over there in that car
in the junkyard.
You boys
had her panties down.
Didn't you? I remember you was
fucking on each other.
I'm the one
that told you don't do it.
Remember that?
I made you leave that girl alone...
'cause she was young
and pretty too.
And she was sweet.
Breasts smelled like Carnation milk.
- What's your name, boy?
-Joe.
- What?
-Joe.
That's all?
You brought your big ass
all the way back there...
and all is your name is Joe?
Goddamn it.
''ToJoe.''
F*ck it. I thought your name would be
Kunta Kinte or something.
It's a great gift
to be able to laugh.
I remember when I was 20,
I used to could f*ck all day.
Quick, but all day, right?
Excuse me. Pop! Thank you.
Excuse me. Pardon me, miss.
And I'm sober.
I'm not doing drugs.
That's a damn good
accomplishment.
See, I stopped drinking. I haven't
had no drugs in five months, man.
For real. Nothin', right?
People applauding
knew me when I did drugs.
''Boy, are we glad.''
I'm ahead.
Wow!
We want Richard!
We want Richard!
We want Richard!
We want Richard!
We want Richard!
We want Richard!
We want Richard!
We want Richard!
We want Richard!
We want Richard!
Ladies and gentlemen...
the two most beautiful words
in the world of comedy...
Richard Pryor!
Hello.

How you doin'?
Welcome.
Glad you come this evening.
Why are there people
in the aisle?
Listen, these people, shit,
done snuck in, fucked with your seats.
Oh, boy. What's happening?
How you doing, white person?
This man got eight drinks.
He's gonna--
Sit your ass down.
What happens--
You go out and the lights was out,
and you went out to get some shit.
Now you don't remember
where you were sittin'.
'Cause he see the people,
