Richard Pryor: Here and Now (1983)

Member Rating:

This entry in Pryor's comedy-concert film series, Richard Pryor: Here and Now goes so far as to include hecklers who bedevil Pryor all through his performance. The most memorable bits involve Pryor's R-rated comments regarding the Reagan administration; the concert was filmed in New Orleans. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Richard Pryor Here and Now demonstrates that he's arguably the greatest stand-up comic of all time. It's true that this concert is by far weaker than Live in Concert and Sunset Strip. There are more slow spots here and the frequent interruptions and distractions by the obnoxious audience throw Pryor off of his rhythm. Part of what makes this fascinating to watch is how Pryor handles these people and saves the film. A lesser comedian would have been crushed. Richard Pryor, even when not in top form and with so much working against him still manages to be very funny. "This ain't Johnny Carson MFs!!!" Prudish people with an aversion for adult language and content, or uncomfortable with in-your-face discussions of race relations or the dark side of American history shouldn't watch this or any other Richard Pryor concert.
