Summary

From his groundbreaking stand-up to television appearances, blockbuster films and beyond, Richard Pryor always told the whole, hilarious truth. A once-in-a-generation innovator, changing the game and inspiring everyone who came after him, Richard's intimate storytelling made the world feel like we knew him and loved him. Richard Pryor lived his life out loud, sharing the pain of the lowest lows and dazzling us from the highest heights. There's simply never been a comedian like Richard: totally genius, outrageously funny and perfectly human. This disc includes the full-length concert film Live & Smokin', never-before-released footage from Richard's infamous first film, Uncle Tom's fairy tales, and a no-holds-barred interview with Richard's widow, Jennifer Lee Pryor.
