Richard Pryor died today at age 65 from a heart attack. He had been
debilitaed since the early 90's with multiple sclerosis, a degenerative
disease of the nervous system.
I've read that Pryor didn't like Brewter's Millions, but I watch
it whenever I come acros it on TV. He and John Candy had good chemistry.
Where did you hear he didn´t like it?
R.I.P. Richard Pryor.
Even though I knew it was coming, I found it really hard to accept the idea of Richard's death. He was an original who paved the way and was an icon for every black man who has ever stood onstage and told a joke. The world is a lesser place without Richard Pryor. Definitely not as funny as it was.
