Richard Pryor-RichardPryor - Here and Now -DVD

Theres nothing wrong in Richard Pryor: Here and Now that a little editing wouldnt cure. This fourth entry in Pryors comedy-concert film series would probably have played better as a 48-minute video. Instead. it was released as an 83-minute feature. requiring way too much padding (mostly in the form of the hecklers who bedevil Pryor all through his performance). The best bits involve Pryors R-rated comments regarding the Ronald W. Reagan administration. Filmed in New Orleans. Richard Pryor: Here and Now is undeniably funny. but it could have been far more than that. Hal Erickson
